如果你常欣賞歌舞劇,那你一定喜歡這齣經典歌舞喜劇 Mary Poppins <<歡樂滿人間>>,這部在
1964年由迪士尼根據P. L. Travers所寫的系列小說<<The Mary Popins>>而拍成的電影,內容是關
於一位英國神仙保母乘著東風來到一個傳統富有的家庭,Mary Poppins帶著劇中人物一同歡樂,
一同冒險,並散播歡樂到這家庭 ,包括整個社區,Walt Disney(華特迪士尼先生)當初之所以想把這
小說拍成真人版電影,其實是因為他的女兒很喜歡這小說便請求他把這部作品翻 拍成電影,而P.
L. Travers起先是不願意的,因為她認為拍出來的成果無法和她心中所想的版本匹敵,經由華特先
生的苦言相勸後,她最才同意了於是迪士尼先生找來了Sherman Brothers為該部電影作歌並參與
電影製作,也因為如此Sherman把書中原有的1930年代背景改成了愛德華時代(1901~1910).
很跩的P. L. Travers
Sherman Brothers天才作哥的兄弟檔
本部電影最重要的靈魂人物 Mary Poppins就是由那位鼎鼎大名的 Julie Andrews(茱莉亞 安德魯
斯)被迪士尼先生相中,沒錯!就是在電影<<真善美>>飾演女主並在今年奧斯卡典禮上擔任頒獎
人,使得全場Hollywood巨星站起來為她拍手的那位,地表上大概只有她可以那麼威了!!!!!!!!
正好當時電影公司在找奧黛麗赫本拍<<My fair lady 窈窕淑女>>的電影版取代了取代了原本該
部百老匯劇的女主 Julie Andrews(老實說 ~我覺得她唱得比奧黛麗赫本還好聽雖然我是赫本迷
><)但之後茱莉亞也因為歡樂滿人間這部電影的成功的演出而打敗奧黛麗赫本的窈窕淑女奪下
金球獎,甚至還拿下了奧斯卡金像獎最佳女主!!!!!!!!!
年輕的茱莉亞,華特迪士尼,P. L. Travers
中年的茱莉亞 依然美麗動人 覺得眼熟嗎 沒錯 她也是飾演<<麻雀變公主>>中的皇太后
本片除了真人歌舞表演外,還加上片中主角與卡通人物一起唱歌跳舞,雖然是2D的技術,不過
在那個年代可說是相當新奇了.該片的導演則是由Robert Stevenson擔任,而改寫劇本的任務交
由Bill Walsh 和Don DaGradi來完成.而片中飾演Mary Popins的好友男配角則是Dick Van Dyke所
詮釋.

年老的Dick Van Dyke 依然很逗~
電影劇情介紹
為何大家都喜歡Mary Pppins的 因
1.她可以優雅地坐在雲朵上,這項跡證表示她的體重異於常人,也是啦~畢盡她是神仙
保母
接著電影一開始就是由Dick Van Dyke所飾演的街頭藝人Brt唱著<<Chim Chim Cheree>,我非常
喜歡他演的角色,不只唱歌好聽,他臉上的表情也相當令人討喜,一眼就看出Bert在裏頭就為逗大
家笑的開心果,就是那種說學逗唱樣樣來的厲害的人物.我覺得很有趣的一點則是他會對著觀眾
說話,就好像是你也和他們參與其中的感覺,Mist com'in更是間接透露出Mary Popins的到來.
位活潑開朗的女性,她出現時立刻透過歌聲唱出自己的個性,理念,當時的愛德華時期,階級制度依舊相當地被
嚴格實行,但在這個年代依然有許多革命家想要打破這種保守制度,所以這個過渡時期中,社會主義,經濟變化,
上下階層的流通,女性爭取投票權一併地爆發, Winifred Banks夫人即透過唱歌傳達女性擁有自由投票的權
利,愛德華時期的服裝相較於過去傳統的服飾顯得就較為輕便了,厚重麻煩的長裙變短,頭飾也從誇張浮華的
風格變為稍有裝飾點綴的草帽.
歌名: Sister Suffragette [suffragette [͵sʌfrəˋdʒɛt]主張婦女有權參政的女子]
We're clearly soldiers in petticoats
And dauntless crusaders for woman's votes
Though we adore men individually
We agree that as a group they're rather stupid!
Cast off the shackles of yesterday!
Shoulder to shoulder into the fray!
Our daughters' daughters will adore us
And they'll sign in grateful chorus
"Well done, Sister Suffragette!"
From Kensington to Billingsgate
One hears the restless cries!
From ev'ry corner of the land:
"Womankind, arise!"
Political equality and equal rights with men!
Take heart! For Missus Pankhurst has been clapped in irons again!
No more the meek and mild subservients we!
We're fighting for our rights, militantly!
Never you fear!
So, cast off the shackles of yesterday!
Shoulder to shoulder into the fray!
Our daughters' daughters will adore us
And they'll sign in grateful chorus
"Well done! Well done!
Well done Sister Suffragette!"

義者,強烈的階級意識,所以孩子們都相當怕他,他唱的這首 The Life I Lead可說是把他的角色個性揮發
得淋漓盡致．
The Life I Lead
I feel a surge of deep satsfaction
Much as a king astride his noble steed
When I return from daily strife to hearth and wife
How pleasant is the life I lead
I run my home precisely on schedule
At six-o-one I march through my door
My slippers sherry and pipe are due at six-o-two
Consistent is the life I lead
It's grand to be an Englishman in 1910
King Edward's on the throne, it's the age of men
I'm the lord of my castle, the sovereign, the liege
I treat my subjects — servants, children, wife —
With a firm but gentle hand: noblesse oblige
It's six-o-three and the heirs to my dominion
Are scrubbed and tubbed and adequately fed
And so I'll pat them on the head and send them off to bed
Ah lordly is the life I lead
A British nanny must be a general
The future empire lies within her hands
And so the person that we need to mold the breed
Is a nanny who can give commands
A British bank is run with precision
The British home requires nothing less
Tradition, discipline and rules must be the tools
With out them disorder, catastrophe, anarchy
In short you have a ghastly mess
I run my home precisely on schedule
At six-o-one I march through my door
My slippers sherry and pipe are due at six-o-two
Consistent is the life I lead
It's grand to be an Englishman in 1910

I'm the lord of my castle, the sovereign, the liege

While gathering his bits of twine and twig
Though quite intent in his pursuit, he has a merry tune to toot
He knows a song will move the job along

The medicine go down, the medicine go down
Just a spoonful of sugar helps the medicine go down

Never tire of ever buzzing to and fro because they take a little nip
From every flower that they sip and hence

Ain't it a glorious day?
Right as a mornin' in MayI feel like I could fly
Now Bert, none of your larking about
Have you ever seen
The grass so green
Or a bluer sky?
Oh, it's a jolly holiday with Mary
Mary makes your heart so light
You haven't changed a bit, have you?
When the day is gray and ordinary
Mary makes the sun shine bright
Oh, honestly
Oh, happiness is bloomin' all around her
The daffodils are smilin' at the dove
When Mary holds your hand you feel so grand
Your heart starts beatin' like a big brass band
You are lightheaded
It's a jolly holiday with Mary
No wonder that it's Mary that we love
Oh, It's a jolly holiday with Mary
Mary makes your heart so light
When the day is gray and ordinary
Mary makes the sun shine bright
Oh, happiness is bloomin' all around her
The daffodils are smilin' at the dove
When Mary holds your hand, you feel so grand
Your heart starts beatin' like a big brass band
It's a jolly holiday with Mary
No wonder that it's Mary that we love
Oh, it's a jolly holiday with you, Bert
Gentlemen like you are few
A vanishing breed, that's me
Though your just a diamond in the rough, Bert
Underneath, your blood is blue
Common knowledge
You'd never think of pressing your advantage
Forbearance is the hallmark of your creed, true
A lady needn't fear when you are near
Your sweet gentility is crystal clear
Oh, it's a jolly holiday with you, Bert
A jolly, jolly holiday with you
It's true that Mavis and Sybil have ways that are winning
And Prudence and Gwendolyn set your heart spinnin'
Phoebe's delightful, Maude is disarming
Janice, Felicia, Lydia charming
Cynthia is dashing, Vivian's sweet
Stephanie's smashing, Priscilla a treat
Veronica, Millicent, Agnes and Jane
Convival company, time and again
Drocas and Phyllis and Glynis are sorts
I'll agree are three jolly good sports
But cream of the crop, tip of the top
It's Mary Poppins and there we stop

Supercalifragilisticexpialidocious
Um diddle, diddle diddle, um diddle ay
Because I was afraid to speak
When I was just a lad
My father gave me nose a tweak
And told me I was bad
But then one day I learned a word
That saved me achin' nose
The biggest word I ever heard
And this is how it goes, oh
Supercalifragilisticexpialidocious
Even though the sound of it is something quite atrocious
If you say it loud enough, you'll always sound precocious
Supercalifragilisticexpialidocious
Um diddle, diddle diddle, um diddle ay
He traveled all around the world
And everywhere he went
He'd use his word and all would say
There goes a clever gent
When Dukes and Maharajahs
Pass the time of day with me
I say me special word
And then they ask me out to tea
Oh, supercalifragilisticexpialidocious
Even though the sound of it is something quite atrocious
If you say it loud enough, you'll always sound precocious
Supercalifragilisticexpialidocious
Um diddle, diddle diddle, um diddle ay
No, you can say it backwards, which is dociousaliexpilisticfragicalirupus
But that's going a bit too far, don't you think?
So when the cat has got your tongue
There's no need for dismay
Just summon up this word
And then you've got a lot to say
But better use it carefully
Or it could change your life
For example, yes, one night I said it to me girl
And now me girl's my wife, oh, and a lovely thing she's too

Early each day to the steps of Saint Paul's,
The little old bird woman comes.
In her own special way to the people she calls,
"Come, buy my bags full of crumbs."
"Come feed the little birds, show them you care,
And you'll be glad if you do --
Their young ones are hungry, their nests are so bare;
All it takes is tuppence from you."
Feed the birds, tuppence a bag,
Tuppence, tuppence, tuppence a bag.
"Feed the birds," that's what she cries,
While overhead, her birds fill the skies.
All around the cathedral, the saints and apostles
Look down as she sells her wares;
Although you can't see it, you know they are smiling
Each time someone shows that he cares.
Though her words are simple and few,
Listen, listen, she's calling to you --
"Feed the birds, tuppence a bag,
Tuppence, tuppence, tuppence a bag."
(interlude)

With pride, yes, I do
A broom for the shaft
And a brush for the flute
Up where the smoke
Is all billered and curled
'Tween pavement and stars
Is the chimney sweep world
When there's hardly no day
Nor hardly no night
There's things half in shadow
And halfway in light
On the rooftops of London
Coo, what a sight

You're in glad company
Nowhere is there
A more happier crew
Than them wot sings

If you invest your tuppence wisely in the bank
Safe and sound
Soon that tuppence, safely invested in the bank
Will compound
And you'll achieve that sense of conquest
As your affluence expands
In the hands of the directors
Who invest as propriety demands
- May I sir?
- Carry on, Banks.
- You see, Michael, you'll be part of
Railways through Africa! (Exactly!)
Dams across the Nile! (The ships, tell them about the ships!)
Fleets of Ocean Greyhounds! (More, tell them more!)
Majestic self-amortizing canals! (Oh, it fires the imagination!)
Plantations of ripening tea
All from tuppence, prudently, thriftily, frugally
Invested in the - to be specific - in the
Dawes Tomes Mousley Grubbs Fidelity Fiduciary Bank
- Now, Michael
When you deposit tuppence in a bank account
Soon you'll see
That it blooms into credit of a generous amount
Semianually
And you'll achieve that sense of stature
As your influence expands
To the high financial strata
That established credit now commands
You can purchase first and second trust deeds
And you'll achieve that sense of conquest
As your affluence expands
In the hands of the directors
Who invest as propriety demands
- May I sir?
- Carry on, Banks.

Railways through Africa! (Exactly!)
Dams across the Nile! (The ships, tell them about the ships!)
Fleets of Ocean Greyhounds! (More, tell them more!)
Majestic self-amortizing canals! (Oh, it fires the imagination!)
Plantations of ripening tea
All from tuppence, prudently, thriftily, frugally
Invested in the - to be specific - in the
Dawes Tomes Mousley Grubbs Fidelity Fiduciary Bank
- Now, Michael
When you deposit tuppence in a bank account
Soon you'll see
That it blooms into credit of a generous amount
Semianually
And you'll achieve that sense of stature
As your influence expands
To the high financial strata
That established credit now commands
You can purchase first and second trust deeds
Think of the foreclosures!
Bonds, chattels, dividends, shares
Bankruptcies, debtor sales, opportunities
All manner of private enterprise, shipyards, the mercantile
Collieries, tanneries, corporations, amalgamations
Banks!
- You see, Michael?
Tuppence
Patiently, cautiously, trustingly
Invested in the - to be specific - in the
Dawes Tomes Mousley Grubbs Fidelity Fiduciary Bank
