The film, which contains scenes combining live footage and animation, stars Julie Andrews as Mary Poppins, a magical nanny who visits a dysfunctional family in London and uses her unique style to improve the lives of the family. Also in the cast are Dick Van Dyke, David Tomlinson and Glynis Johns, among others. It was filmed entirely at Walt Disney Studios in Burbank, California, with painted sets of London.
It was released to great acclaim and was nominated for thirteen Academy Awards, including Best Picture, a record that has not been broken by any other film produced by Walt Disney Studios. It won five: best actress for Julie Andrews, best editing, best score, best visual effects and best original song for Chim Chim Cher-ee. In 2006, it was ranked 6th on the American Film Institute's list of best American musicals.2 In 2013, the film was selected for preservation in the National Film Registry by the Library of Congress as being "culturally, historically or aesthetically significant."3 Mary Poppins is considered the crowning achievement of Walt Disney's career, being the only one of his films to earn an Academy Award nomination for Best Picture during his lifetime.
In Edwardian London in the 1910s, the Banks' last nanny, Katie Nanna, leaves her post as Jane and Michael (the children of George and Winifred Banks) have run away for the fourth time in a week.
George (Jane and Michael's father) comes home from work and Winifred (the mother) reveals to him that the children are missing. The police arrive with the children, who ask their father to help them repair their damaged kite, but he refuses and announces a replacement nanny in a very authoritarian manner. Jane and Michael write a letter asking for a kind, compassionate person, but George tears up the paper and throws it into the fireplace, because he thinks it's stupid, and asks for the Times' phone number to place an ad. Unnoticed, the remains of the note float down the chimney.
The next day, Mary Poppins, a kind and compassionate nanny, arrives. As he returns to the nanny's work, George is surprised to see her holding in her hands the recomposed fragments of the advertisement that he had torn up. This provocative new nanny describes herself as a firm nanny who will define the rules of the game with the children. While George is still perplexed, Mary begins the job, arguing that she will stay for a one-week trial period, before deciding whether to accept the position permanently. When she joins the children, they are amazed by what Mary Poppins has in a suitcase with infinite accessories and by the magic that inhabits her.
After cleaning up their room, Jane and Michael slide down the banister of the stairs for a walk in the park. In this way, they meet Bert at the entrance to the park. Bert now works as a designer, he draws pictures with colored chalks on the sidewalk, and when he sees Mary Poppins' shadow, he begins to draw the silhouette. This is where Mary Poppins uses one of Bert's drawings as a gateway to an animated field. In the drawing, the children follow a path to a funfair while Mary and Bert enjoy a walk in the countryside, during which Bert dances in an outdoor restaurant with four penguin waiters. Mary Poppins and Bert join the children on the carousel. The quartet ends up in a horse race, which Mary wins. This is where Mary Poppins first uses the absurd word "supercalifragilisticoespialidoso". The departure is interrupted by a storm, which erases the chalk drawing and sends the travelers back to the park.

At bedtime, the children ask Mary Poppins how long she will stay with them, and she agrees to stay until the wind changes. She then sternly rejects the idea that she won a horse race in the country, but the children are very restless after everything they have seen that day and do not want to go to sleep, but she rocks them with a lullaby, the lyrics of which speak precisely to what they want to do at that moment, which is to say stay awake even though it is time for bed.
The next day, they visit Albert, Mary Poppins' uncle, after learning that his nonstop laughter caused him to float to the ceiling. They join him for a tea party on the roof of his house, telling each other various jokes, although Mary Poppins finds it ridiculous. The only way they can get discouraged is by thinking about something sad, but they can't do that because they start thinking about something happy again. When Mary Poppins firmly says that it is time for everyone to go home, this makes Uncle Albert sad, even though Jane and Michael promise that they will return. Bert tries to tell him a joke to cheer him up, but he fails and falls into tears too.
George seems increasingly bored by the tales of his children's adventures, but Mary Poppins easily subverts his attempt to sternly instruct him that he should instill discipline and order in his children into a plan to take his children with him to his bank. On the way, as they pass by Saint Paul's Cathedral, they realize the presence of the pigeon woman, ask their father to listen to what the woman says, who asks them to buy food for pigeons. The children try to tell him what the nanny is saying, but George only expresses his lack of interest in what Mary Poppins is saying.
Arriving at the bank, Mr. Dawes Jr. and Mr. Dawes Sr. (the owners of the bank where George works) try to convince Michael to deposit his two pennies in the bank by singing a song in which they talk about the things that he will have it if he does not waste the money to the point of snatching it from his hands without waiting for his permission. When Michael protests, the other customers do not understand his cries and there is a huge commotion in the bank which forces business to stop, because suddenly everyone who had invested their money there starts demanding to retrieve it. The bank guard (Jimmy Logan) pursues the children, who eventually escape through the slums of London. Fortunately, they meet Bert, who has become a chimney sweep. He brings them home safely, after explaining to them that their father does not hate them, but that he has his own problems and that, unlike children, he can only count on himself.
At home, Winifred employs Bert to clean the family fireplace and look after the children. Mary Poppins arrives after her day off and warns of the dangers of this activity, but it is too late, as the children are sucked together through the chimney and onto the roof. Bert and Mary follow them and take a tour of London's rooftops, which ends with a joyful dance with Bert's fellow chimney sweeps. Admiral Boom, who mistakes them for Hottentots, sets off a hail of fireworks which sends the entire group back into a chimney, which turns out to be that of the Banks. While everyone in the house is dancing, George arrives home, sending Bert's aides out into the street, where they disappear.
George gets upset and wonders what's going on, to which Mary Poppins replies that she never explains herself to anyone. George then receives a phone call from work ordering him to return immediately for disciplinary action. As George gathers his strength, blaming Mary Poppins for all his misfortunes, Bert points out that even though George is trying to make a living, Jane and Michael are children and he needs to be part of their childhood, before they do not grow. Jane and Michael apologize, and Michael gives her his money in the hope that it will make everything better. George graciously accepts the offer.
George walks alone through the nighttime streets of London, noticing several of the buildings around him, such as the cathedral and the steps where the Pigeon Woman was sitting earlier. At the bank, he underwent a ceremonial demotion and was fired for causing the first run on the bank since 1773 (the bank provided the money for the tea shipment destroyed in the Boston Tea Mutiny). However, after being ordered to make a statement, George says "supercalifragilisticoespialidoso" and gives Dawes his son's dough, tells one of Uncle Albert's jokes and happily leaves. Dawes Sr. thought about the joke and ended up climbing onto the roof, laughing.
The next morning, the wind having changed direction, Mary Poppins prepares to leave. Meanwhile, the police cannot find George and fear he may have committed suicide. However, George, now loving and cheerful, reappears with the repaired kite for Jane and Michael. Winifred uses one of her suffragette ribbons as the tail of the kite. In the park, Mr Dawes Jr, now a bank manager, says his father literally died laughing at his joke. George offers his condolences, but Mr. Dawes Jr. explains that his father died happy and rehires him to fill the void as a junior associate. Once her work is finished, Mary Poppins opens her umbrella and flies into the air. Bert bids him a fond farewell and asks him to come back soon.
