The Sound of Music actress donned a white shawl, tailored trousers, and a light grey long sleeve for her casual outing.

It began to sprinkle as she entered the passenger seat of a white SUV, and a man held an umbrella over her head.

The Oscar recipient has a plethora of unforgettable roles as a star of the stage and the screen throughout her seven-decade career.

However, it is arguable that none of them are more iconic than Mary Poppins, the Walt Disney film directed by Robert Stevenson and featuring melodies written and composed by the Sherman Brothers.

Andrews’ debut feature film, which blends live-action and animation, was released in 1964 and ultimately earned her the Academy Award for Best Actress.

During an interview with Vanity Fair last year, the Surrey, England native disclosed that the music was the initial factor that captivated her and drawn her to the role.

“I had never done anything like it before in my life.” It was, of course, for Walt Disney, and the melodies in Mary Poppins had a Vaudeville quality, as Andrews explained.

“I believe it was the music that drew me to the role, as it was reminiscent of the type of music that is heard in English vaudeville, such as Supercalifragilisticexpialidocious and Jolly Holiday.”

The actress also disclosed that the nanny’s costume design, which was inspired by her then-husband, Tony Walton, was instrumental in her understanding of the mystical qualities of the Mary Poppins character, in addition to the familiarity of the music.

Andrews recalled that Walton provided her with a comprehensive explanation of why Mary Poppins’ clothing were lined with such entertaining fabrics on the inside, but did not feature any extravagant designs on the outside.

‘Because I believe that is the source of her joy. ‘Mary Poppins is very formal on the outside, and a little bit mischievous on the inside,’ Walton stated at the time. This information proved to be invaluable for Andrews.

I was entirely informed of her character by it. The performer would admit, “It was a tremendous help to me.”

The film adaptation of P. L. Travers’s bestselling series, Mary Poppins, was released in August 1964 to critical acclaim and commercial triumph, based on a screenplay by Bill Walsh and Don DaGradi.

It subsequently became the highest-grossing film of 1964 and received 13 Academy Award nominations, a record for any film released by Walt Disney Studios. It won five award, including Best Original Music Score.
