Saving Mr. Banks
U: Comedy
Director: John Lee Hancock
Cast: Tom Hanks, Emma Thompson, Colin Farrell

A Disney film about a 1964 Walt Disney studio film starring Walt Disney — there is no way a movie like that could retain any objectivity surrounding its protagonist. Saving Mr. Banks is a film that is impossible to dislike but also impossible to see through a balanced lens.

Walt Disney had Nazi connections and a lot of his personal life wasn’t exactly as lovely as his cartoons. Naturally, you won’t see any of this in Saving Mr. Banks. Tom Hanks’ portrayal of Disney is an affable, wonderful, funny and witty man, much like his own self.
