Tossup
Description acceptable. This sequence won an honorary Oscar for using a camera with an interior prism invented by Wadsworth E. Pohl. A musical number in this sequence is backed by a charity band of “pearlies.” During this sequence, a party of posh hunters set their bloodhounds on a fox who speaks with a stereotypical Irish accent. This sequence uses the sodium vapor process to show two characters traversing a pond on the backs of (*) turtles. This sequence in particular disgusted P. L. Travers, who asked for its removal. In this sequence, characters race on carousel horses and dance with penguin waiters. For 10 points, during what special effects sequence does a domestic worker jump into a chalk drawing and define “Supercalifragilisticexpialidocious”? ■END■
ANSWER: the animated sequence from Mary Poppins [accept descriptions of the combo live-action-animated sequence from Mary Poppins; accept descriptions of the chalk drawing scene before “chalk”; accept the “Jolly Holiday”; accept “Supercalifragilisticexpialidocious” before read; accept the penguin dance scene before “penguin”]
= Average correct buzz position
