One of my favorite childhood movies but I was disappointed to read that Dick Van Dyke hated it! He referred to it as a cheap attempt to re-do Mary Poppins (or something to that effect) in his biography My Lucky Life In and out of Show Business.

SGT (Join to see) - He, My Van Dyke, took issue with the story as just a stab at a Mary Poppin's rip off.

PO3 Donald Murphy
Impossible for him to feel that way - he was pickled for most of the filming. In Julie Andrews bio, they (studio) came close to firing him several times. He was a raging alcoholic.
