There are no fillers here each film is a must own for any family from Julie Andrews' oscar winning performance in the unforgetable Mary Poppins the magical nanny who comes into London on the wind and enriches the lives of two children, Julie Andrews'voice sparkles especially when she sings "feed the birds" Dick Van Dyke's accent may not be great but his superb singing and his endless energy during the brillant dance routines is infectious. Then to Edgar Rice Burroughs Tarzan the little boy lost in the jungle and brought up by gorillas,is brought to animated life with great affection, Phil Collins soundtrack is a classic and the film manages to keep all ages interested.and entertained throughout. Finally Lilo & Stich one of the more recent Disney classics, the story of an alien & a little girl who find friendship and the bonds of family can survive anything even alien space authorities!

Review of Mary Poppins / Tarzan / Lilo And Stitch (Animated) (3 Special Edition Classics) (Box Set) (DVD)
Three features. In 'Mary Poppins' a magical, musical nanny brings a breath of fresh air into the stuffy Banks household in turn-of-the-century England. Overstuffed with gaiety, this children's fantasy is filled to the brim with wonderful dance numbers and outrageous songs (such as the seemingly unpronounceable 'Supercalifragilisticexpialidocious'). The film's seamless blending of live-action with animation was a marvel in its day. This is Andrews' film debut and Darwell's last film appearance. Academy Award Nominations: 13, including Best Picture, Best Director, Best (Adapted) Screenplay. Academy Awards: 5, including Best Actress--Julie Andrews, Best Original Score, Best Song ('Chim Chim Cher-ee'), Best Editing, Best Special Visual Effects. Gold Collection Edition features 'Hollywood Goes to a World Premiere'. Plus 'Tarzan' and 'Lilo And Stitch'.
