Over 50 years since it originally hit theaters and the hills are still alive with The Sound of Music! Arguably the most popular film musical ever, the Rodgers and Hammerstein classic stars Julie Andrews as a novitiate who becomes governess to a large family in 1930s Austria and charms both her charges and their widower father (Christopher Plummer). Thanks to songs like the title tune, “My Favorite Things,” “Edelweiss,” “Do Re Mi,” and many more (seriously, every song in the film is an absolute winner), The Sound of Music became a cultural phenomenon — winning five Academy Awards, including Best Picture, along the way. In recent years, the film has enjoyed yet another surge in popularity thanks to a sing-along version that features on-screen lyrics that has toured the country. Why has this story endured for so long? The answer is quite simple, it is about love, courage, and family, subjects that never go out of style. We can think of no better way for you to kick off your weekend than with the above trailer, and be sure to find some time to watch this film again ASAP. It’s as terrific as you remember. So long. Farewell…
