Dr. Andrew Graham was my guest for a discussion about the 2013 film Saving Mr. Banks. Dr. Graham’s background in counseling shed some light on how this film about Walt Disney’s tense negotiations for movie rights with Mary Poppins author P. L. Travers depicts relationships between parents and children. We also talked about narratives of redemption and why our need for them is so deep and universal.
