We’ve certainly come a long way from dear old David Tomlinson singing:
It’s grand to be an Englishman in 1910
King Edward’s on the throne, it’s the age of MEN.
Although, from the trailer, everything seems to be perfectly acceptable so far. The Banks children are the Banks children; Mary Poppins still seems prim and proper; London looks foggy and romantic.
My one fear is that because it is set during the age of the Great Depression, that might give them an excuse to harp on about the ‘evils of capitalism.’
I could be wrong. I really hope I am. We could do with a good, old fashioned, little bit of cinematic magic and escapism.
Well, that’s good, very good.
The queers who control Hollywood production and the media never miss a chance to insert their deviant agenda and gleefully use the F word in over abundance.
