Have you ever watched something that was so engrossing and yet repelled you at the same time? Drew you in and made you think only to run roughshod over your better judgement?

There are few films this year that will fill you with the kind of wonderment and joy than Saving Mr. Banks. Channeling the spirit of their glory years, Disney has managed to craft a tale that’s reverential without being overly sentimental. Showbiz stories often fail at this but Banks provides an interesting insight into the making of a fascinating picture.
