Curiosités

Anecdotes:
In Austria the film is know as “Meine Lieder - meine Träume” (“My Songs - my dreams”). It's not very well known there though, and the ending of the film was cut when it hit Austrian cinemas in the 60s. suite
Goofs:
Errors in geography: Salzburg is on Austria's German (not Swiss) border. (In real life the von Trapps simply traveled 100 km to the Italian border for a supposed mountain-climbing vacation, crossed openly, and did not return. The border closed the very next day.) suite
Guillemet:
[first lines]
Maria: [singing] The hills are alive with the sound of music / With songs they have sung for a thousand years. / The hills fill my heart with the sound of music. / My heart wants to sing every song it hears.

Timeless Classic, 4 May 2000
Author: michyh de Los Angeles

One of my all-time favorite movies. It might be on the sweet side, but sometimes that's just exactly what is needed. Anyway, there is Christopher Plummer as the captain to balance out all that sweetness. I always thought he had a great voice and terrific screen presence in this film.

Julie Andrews at her freshest and best...her singing is wonderful, the alps are wonderful, the songs are memorable, and the story line never gets boring.
