Because of the trailers, I wasn't interested in seeing "Frozen". Now that it is out, I've changed my mind. On another point, when first announced, I thought Saving Mr. Banks would probably appeal to a very narrow fan base - the Disney geeks (I'm one). Once again, Disney has surprised me and this film will be much more popular than I ever thought. This time Disney's marketing machine got it right, unlike John Carter, the Lone Ranger and the afore mentioned Frozen.

His character is meant to be far more upbeat then that of Mrs. Travers, but does a tremendous job of representing Walt. Don't let the trailers discourage you from seeing it.
