Lost me when they got the street address wrong.

17 Cherry Tree Lane.

All this talk of allegory and Mary Poppins reminds me of people trying to read politics into The Wizard of Oz. Stop and think. It MAY just be a fun story for children that takes place when social upheaval is happening.

I think your complaints are with the 1910s, not, with Disney.

I don't buy that either. Something tells me it's Turkish Delight.

From what I remember of “Saving Mr. Banks,” this is all Disney had in mind; to create a fun story for his two daughters.
