STAGE TUBE: THE BOYS: The Sherman Brothers Story Trailer

To commemorate the death of Robert Sherman, who died yesterday in London, aged 86, here is the trailer for the 2009-10 Disney documentary THE BOYS: The Sherman Brothers STORY.

In 1965, The Sherman Brothers won Oscars® for their MARY POPPINS score and the song “Chim-Chim-Cher-ee.” Other Disney film scores include THE PARENT TRAP (1961, which included Hayley Mills’ chart-topping “Let’s Get Together”), SUMMER MAGIC (1963), THE JUNGLE BOOK (1966), THE HAPPIEST MILLIONAIRE (1967), THE ARISTOCATS (1970), BEDKNOBS AND BROOMSTICKS (1971), THE MANY ADVENTURES OF WINNIE THE POOH (1977) and THE TIGGER MOVIE (2003).

In 1990, the brothers were named “Disney Legends” by The Walt Disney Company, an honor they prize. Their autobiographical coffee-table scrapbook WALT’S TIME: FROM BEFORE TO BEYOND was published in 1999.
