Скачать или смотреть The Mary Poppins Penguin Mistake

The timing of this drove me crazy EVERY TIME for years until I figured out why it’s off 😭 I suppose I can forgive Peter Ellenshaw as he was a brilliant painter (but not a trained voiceover artist or singer 😂). We can’t all be great at everything all the time, and that’s ok 😊

“They made the mistake of asking me if I would do the voice of one of the penguins. All I had to do was one simple thing. All I had to say was, ‘And Jane.’ Dear Irwin Kostal was a sweet man—great memories of that dear man. He was the orchestrator and conductor. We were down on this stage and here on the screen was this little thing going ‘And Jane.’ I was missing it every time. I had never done anything like this before. Irwin said, ‘Peter, look at me.’ He was watching the screen and he mouthed ‘And Jane.’ So he said, ‘Do it when I do it.’ So I watched him, and like a child that is how I managed to do it. Irwin showed me how.” - Peter Ellenshaw

The notes about what Walt contributed to the gags of Mary Poppins are all from the movie’s screenwriter and producer Bill Walsh. He discussed this film (and more) in a May 1973 interview with Bob Thomas, the person who wrote the definitive biograhy of Walt called “Walt Disney: An American Original” (which I highly recommend!) 📖
