There's Nothing Funnier Than The Human Animal.

As The Original 'mary Poppins' Budget Of Five Million Dollars Continued To Grow, I Never Saw A Sad Face Around The Entire Studio. And This Made Me Nervous. I Knew The Picture Would Have To Gross 10 Million Dollars For Us To Break Even. But Still There Was No Negative Head-shaking. No Prophets Of Doom. Even Roy Was Happy. He Didn't Even Ask Me To Show The Unfinished Picture To A Banker. The Horrible Thought Struck Me - Suppose The Staff Had Finally Conceded That I Knew What I Was Doing.
