Spurred on by a promise he made to his daughters, Walt Disney

embarks on what would become a 20-year quest to obtain the

movie rights to "Mary Poppins." The author, P.L. Travers, proves

to be an uncompromising curmudgeon who has no intention of

letting her beloved characters become mangled in the Hollywood

machine. However, when the books stop selling and she finds

herself in need of money, Travers reluctantly agrees to consider

Disney's proposition
