  • They try so hard to make it British, but they still pronounce niche as nitch rather than neesh

  • Mr Banks is the most underrated character in Mary Poppins 

  • If i could speak to banks i'd say that it's alright we all make mistakes. We all at times forget the most important things in our lives because as a kid we don't understand what a father goes through and how hard he works so we get a good future.

    Your family loves you very deeply and they know you have always loved your family

  • Never really understood this song until now. This movie is amazing, has great run for the kids and incredible lessons for the adults.

  • the father dont see the fun in he's love so he hate Mary Poppins.... but on the end he see al the happiness and i love everything !! great movie!!

  • David Tomlinson is such an incredible actor. In this scene, you can always see the sadness in his eyes. I'm rather close to being in tears now, and NEVER do I cry during a movie.

  • This is the best part of the movie.

  • yay a guit trip :)

  • Comment removed

  • love love love dick van dyke! <3

  • I think banks known he was going to get the sack before he sang this song.

  • This is my favorite song in the whole movie, it's so emotional and I love the title

  • im crying now!!!!!

  • when it talks about him being to busy to dry their tears my tears started

  • When I look at the scene now, I notice Bert is not explicitly poor. He just happens to like changing jobs a lot ;D

  • The strongest Scene of all scenes in this movie and still my favorite one. Always makes me cry a little.. Something that todays disney movies can't do anymore today.

    The performance is just perfect in every second!!

  • @BetterthanBunnies,

    you're quite welcome.

  • Alex, what software did you use to capture movie scenes?

  • Also, if you listen to the words, it is the conflict between making your "mark in the world" and raising your children properly. You see it today in many of the children of celebrities and well to do business people

  • "You've got to grind, grind, grind at that grindstone, though childhood slips like sand through a sieve. And all too soon they've up and grown. And then they've flown. And it's too late for you to give. Just that spoonful of sugar to help the medicine go down... the medicine go down... medicine go down..." Makes me cry EVERY time.

  • @infinitefandom Me too!

  • does anyone here another voice at 3:17-3:20 when he says "grind, grind, grind"

  • With one son away at college and the other in High School, I can truly relate to how fast childhood goes. Very moving scene.

  • @CurlyHairChris how lovely :) hope they are both very happy with a daddy like you :)

  • Higgilty Piggelty. xD

  • "The perfect nanny"? Maybe not....

  • Bert should be Jane and Michael's father. He truly understands them :)

    I love Mr Banks but Bert knows how to teach a child proprely.

  • "properly"

  • @boffinme80 It's the fine line between providing financial security for your family and enjoying the special moments of childhood that only last once a lifetime. Especially in these times it is extremely hard to do both.

  • "Because their dad, he always knows just what to do..."

    *sigh* Doesn't that remind me of something.

  • oh, that bert is so wise.

  • it makes you think about your mom and dad and how sometimes its easyer than u think some kids have it a lot harder yes i am a kid u may think that when you drop us off at school that we come home and just watch tv and things like that its not like thay we still need that spoon ful of sugar.

  • The part with the kids at 4:45 makes me tear up every time...

  • I just wish someone would have song this to my own father when I was growing up....

  • its so poetic, but still so meaningful! and i love how they use the same tune as when he was on his high horse!

  • It's very ahead of it's time - shows that men have an important role to play in childcare, as much as women.

  • Was Disney originally from London, because he seems to set most of his movies there. (Peter Pan, Mary Poppins, Bedknobs & Broomsticks, etc.)

  • he died in 66 so bedknobs & broomsticks wasn't his choice... fot he others i dont know. but he was born in chicago

  • @mejerchold

    Are you talking about David Tomlinson who played george banks? He died in 2000 not in 66. What are you smoking??

  • @TheBroadwaybob

    no, i'm talking about walt disney

  • This is a very moving scene- It shows the contrast between Bert and Mr. Banks. Bert is poor, but happy as can be, while Mr. Banks is wealthy, but unhappy because he has forgotten how to love his children. Bert finally shows Mr. Banks that you can always make more money, but you can only live your kids childhood once, and so you should enjoy it. It is a lesson that all fathers can take away.

  • @commonsenseforUSA Sort of- but by the looks on his face when looking away, Bert knows exactly why Banks is unhappy, and is playing him like a violin.

    The whole line of "Don't they know the sacrifices you make?" thread when he knows full well Banks doesn't yet understand either.

    It's not explicit in the scene, but I get the impression Bert and Mary haven't discussed this behind the scenes. Bert is poor (or at least appears to be) and happy because he understands happy.

  • great movie, but seriously spelling sieve and pronouncing it siv, there is a spelling problem in English

  • Shut the fuck up

  • I love this part of the film, it's very sentimental but not in the usual romantic way of successful movies. It carries an important message that I think is equally important to parents and children. And the acting is 'exemplary', to use Banks's word.

  • dick van dike is awesome in this movie, and i think he treats the dad just as he needs to be treated in this scene

  • This is the best thing ever done by Walt Disney.

  • wow u can tell the father feels like shit he realizes all hes ever done wrong as a parent

  • It's a great film full of fun and good morals.

  • Great scene, very moving... and Dick Van Dyke is super HOT!!

  • This is David Tomlinsons movie. Julie Andrews and Dick Van Dyke do their bit but it is Mr Tomlinson that adds the heart to the movie with his outstanding performance whether playing for laughs or the more serious dramatic moments. Just a superb actor!

  • I couldn't agree more

  • I agree wholeheartedly! Julie Andrews and Dick Van Dyke were outstanding, of course, but sometimes I think their performances overshadow David Tomlinson, who certainly deserves kudos for making Mr. Banks’ epiphany very moving, poignant, and believable. I also think Walt Disney deserves credit for bringing Mr. Tomlinson’s talents to the American cinema.

  • wow awesomeee! I like both this and the Italian version of the whole movie.

  • I like this version of the song way better than the one sung by Mary Poppins. Mary is just so bright which is ok most of the time but this one is way more thoughtful.

  • This part is really sad for George Banks but Dick Van Dyke acts likes it's a joke.

  • but he does give him a bit of a wake up call

  • I don't see Bert acting like it's a joke at all. He's just being Bert, and in his own unique way pointing out to Banks that he's missing the truly important things in life. Yes, Bert acts amused, but while WE see it, he does hide it from Banks. That's the smile of someone who knows something the other does not, and I think it's perfect for the situation. Bert understands something Banks does not -- that this disaster, far from being the end, is merely the beginning of something better.

  • No he doesn't he's trying to get George to open his eyes for once.

  • When I was 7 this scene unsettled me. Little understood intimations of the deeper, darker side of life I suppose.

    We all want to carve our niche in the edifice of time in one way or another..

  • wow, ill never get in a debate w/ u!

  • This movie is so fantastic! Best scene in the movie when Jane and Micheal apologize and give their father the toppins, this melts me every time, the music in this scene is so dissonant and intense at this moment of this powerfully humbling relization. Music cutting moving from dissonance to consenance as he gose out for a walk and is set free.. Powerfull Stuff! You cut it too short here as the music begins to shift. They don't know how to orchestrate films like this anymore man...

  • they give him a tuppence - two pence coin in other words :)

  • I really think we should be friends! Beauitifully worded for a beauitful movie.

  • I realy love this scene!

  • it brought tears to me when I watched this part of the movie. I don't get that moved in most movies.

  • sad when parents dont love there children

  • yeah, but he does love them, mary poppins brought that out

  • Perhaps the most effective scene in a movie. Any which i've seen anyways :)

    Nice work

  • His walk to work in the middle of the night is significant too. I am not sure exactly how, but it seems to be a very important part. Maybe the only time you see him in the movie where he is alone, totally alone with his thoughts. (Sorry for the double post!)

  • This song is my favorite song in the movie. It really shows the mind frame of a father in the low parts of his life. I had this talk with my dad about this song. Is a great song. It shows that this movie is not about the nanny, but the father. Brilliant. Marry Poppins is such an amazing woman in the movie because she shows the father what's really important. What in his life really makes him unhappy. Again, my favorite.

  • Sorry I removed and edited this comment two times to make it more understandable

  • i dont no if eny one noticed but u named it The perfect nanny and the song is a man has dreams what is that about?

  • Bert (Dick Van Dyke) is SOOOOOOOOOOOOOO sexy !

  • I feel like Mr. Banks right now. I'm depressed just as he is. It's okay Mr. Banks. Things will hopefully get better.

  • What a treat...I really enjoyed this video.

    Thanks...

  • truly fantastic. this song bout sums up my life. thanks for the brilliant song.

  • kinda sad when parents don't appreciate there children and are detached

  • I think it's interesting-and somewhat ironic-that it is Bert, not Mary Poppins- who finally shows Mr. Banks the error of his ways, and reminds him what really matters in his life. It's well done. Very well done.

  • i think it's interesting, and somewhat ironic, that Bert makes no progress until he starts to sing the same tune as Mr. Banks. They are masterful in how they've assembled this sequence.

  • umm...you kind of put the wrong title at the beginning...just to let you know. but other than that it's great.

  • R.I.P David Tomlinson, such a great actor, such a wonderful voice - he and Dick Van Dyke work well together, love the song and the video well done and thanks for putting it up

  • probaly disneys most famous film. he put so much work into it i think this film defintaly stands out above the rest.
