It should be Dick Van Dyke. Yeah, he does the crazy accent and all the physical comedy and the Mr. Dawes role and all of that. But he also provides the endearing everyman balance to Andrews' otherworldy perfection, the sympathetic surrogate for the children when they flee the bank, and he delivers the emotional death blow of the film when he confronts Mr. Banks in "A Man Has Dreams." He actually has to carry a lot of what makes the film work.

This is going to be a landslide even if I wish it wasn’t.
