Personally I'm not so crazy about musicals but this one I actually enjoyed. I thought that all the singing and dancing stuff is really carefully placed so it never took me out from the story, instead it did the opposite. It's about a troublemaker nun who becomes a governess for seven children and accidentally falls in love with their super rich widowed father.

A great musical with beautiful songs! Julie Andrews is a fantastic singer and actor, and it is fun to see her in her younger years. I don't believe the film would be as good without her, she is perfectly suited to the role. Most of the child acting is decent, which can usually really impact a film.The songs are absolutely classics and for a good reason. All further the story and fit, and they must have great song writers. Also, the settings are phenomenal with the mountain being iconic scenery now. Costumes are very nice, and reflect the mood of the scenes. However, the cinematography is basic but I think it is mainly due to the time period and equipment. Just overall an amazing classic that everyone has watched or needs to!

I'm just writing this review to finish my profile. But this is a classic movie. Get rid of that annoying scene with the puppets and you've got yourself a solid 8. I need five lines of text so allow me to continue. One of my favorite quotes is by a man named W.E.B. Du Bois. He wrote of double consciousness: "It is a peculiar sensation, this double-consciousness, this sense of always looking at one's self through the eyes of others, of measuring one's soul by the tape of a world that looks on in amused contempt and pity. One ever feels his two-ness, an American, a Negro; two souls, two thoughts, two unreconciled strivings; two warring ideals in one dark body, whose dogged strength alone keeps it from being torn asunder." I hope you enjoyed it as much as I did!

The Sound of Music is another great classic of the 60s, the film is based on real events , has a good script , the cast is excellent, Julie Andrews is excellent, and Christopher Plummer is great as always , the film is well directed the photography is excellent, the first few minutes which show the high mountains and there appears the character of Julie Andrews singing and dancing is remarkable , the songs are very good , younger actors are very good, the film could be shorter in my opinion three hours was too much, because I found the slow pace , over who is a lover of the musical genre that is not my case , will not see the time pass more in my opinion two and half hours was enough , the Sound of Music is one of the best musicals of all time , with an excellent photo and fine performances . Note 8.6
