Forty-eight years before “Saving Mr. Banks” hit theaters, Sidney Poitier presented Julie Andrews with an Academy Award for playing Mary Poppins. And she was very grateful to Walt Disney.
Julie Andrews agreed to make "Mary Poppins" after she was turned down for the role of Eliza Doolittle in the film version of My Fair Lady.
This was a slap in the face, considering she originally played Doolittle on Broadway and on London’s West End. The role went to Audrey Hepburn, instead.

Then she won an Oscar for playing Mary Poppins. This was her incredibly sweet speech:
