Their music is unforgettable. Their name is legend. The Boys: The Sherman Brothers' Story is an intimate journey through the lives of Robert and Richard Sherman, the astoundingly prolific Academy Award® winning songwriting team. While their songs, "A Spoonful Of Sugar (Mary Poppins)" and "I Want To Be Like You (Jungle Book)," to name a few, celebrated family entertainment and happy endings, their life together was not as harmonious. Go behind the scenes for a fascinating glimpse into how Walt Disney used the language of music to bring the brothers together, creating a cinematic legacy like no other.

With both Richard M. Sherman and Robert B. Sherman having passed away, The Boys: The Sherman Brothers' Story ensures that their legacy will never be forgotten.

This moving tale behind the scenes of one of Hollywood's least well-known "first" families is enriched by some of the most gloriously happy lyrics produced in the last decade of the studio system.

As the highlights roll by and you get to know these geniuses better, the film becomes surprisingly moving.

...an affable, sporadically intriguing (yet somewhat underwhelming) piece of work.
