Mary Poppins Returns In The Second Trailer
UPDATE: Read my Mary Poppins Returns review …and it’s gorgeous. I was never a big Mary Poppins fan.

Bliss! 4 stars
Bliss! is an assured and well-judged feature debut from director Rita Osei – an uplifting family film but an unsentimental one, and a movie that young girls can call their own.
