1965:: The Sound of Music


       A classic. What else can I say? But, I have a confession: I had never seen it. Ok, well, I had never seen the WHOLE thing. I had definitely seen my share of scenes, but never knew the story. So, being new to this movie, I was not disappointed! Oh, the beautiful scenery, the playful music, and the stunning color, it is one of the best movies I have ever seen. It's such a feel good movie, one that families can enjoy and I appreciate that. 

    This is the part when I usually tell the story of the movie, but for The Sound of Music, there is no need. There is no way to express the movie because the movie is nothing without the music and the colors. So, you'll just have to see it for yourself.
 I love Julie Andrews and even Christopher Plummer is great even though he seems rather old and staunchly in the movie. It really is a movie that makes you feel good. I know all the songs so I was singing along and even the ones I didn't know.  All the children are just adorable, and, well what else can I say? 

The Sound of Music is just a movie you have to see for yourself.
