First some comments:
I was very impressed with Dick Van Dyke's performance in Mary Poppins. I
felt he deserved more credit for his performance as Bert. He also showed
his great acting ability as the old banker, too. I was very impressed with
his dancing talents, as well.
Also, I have been very impressed and amused by David Tomlinson in the various
Disney movies I've seen him in (e.g., The Love Bug as Peter Thorndyke, Mary Poppins
as George Banks, and Bedknobs and Broomsticks as Professor Emelius Brown(sp?))

Questions:
Is David Tomlinson still alive?
What other Disney movies has he appeared in?
Has he done anything recently?

Thanks! :)

Ditto, Tim. It's a trip how many people only think of Dick Van Dyke as a
comedian and don't know what a great dancer he is/was!

Yes!

>What other Disney movies has he appeared in?

Here is a partial listing of films he has appeared in. All of his Disney
appearances are included I think (and denoted with <<---). I haven't
researched all of his early films yet. There is also a Disney Cast list
you may want to check (see the list of lists post on where to find it).
I myself haven't checked that list either.

Tomlinson, David Bedknobs and Broomsticks <<---
Calling Bulldog Drummond
Dominique
Fiendish Plot of Dr. Fu Manchu, The
Love Bug, The <<---
Mary Poppins <<---
Miranda (1948)
My Brother's Keeper
Ship Was Loaded, The
So Long at the Fair
Tom Jones
Up the Creek (1958)
War Gods of the Deep

>Has he done anything recently?

The Fiendish Plot of Dr. Fu Manchu was from 1980, the most recent I have
found so far.

Erm . . . well, in fact David Tomlinson isn't in the Cast list because
he's not in any of the "official" animated feature films. One day I
might expand it in that regard and include some of the other Disney
films, but that's a *beeg* job.

Still, no time like the present . . .
