Saving Mr. Banks
We watched this on Netflix last night. It's about the author of Mary Poppins, P.L. Travers, working with Walt Disney to make the movie. There are a lot of flashbacks to Travers' childhood. Also some clips from the Mary Poppins movie as well as actual audiotapes of the sessions between Travers and the Disney team. Emma Thompson plays Travers and Tom Hanks plays Disney. It's hard to go wrong with either of those two. We thoroughly enjoyed it. Anyone else catch this one?

One Strange Rock
On Netflix now, season 1. I just finished it and enjoyed it immensely. Just thought I'd rec it, in case anyone's looking for something cool to watch.
