 ONE OF MY GREATEST DISAPPOINTMENTS IN LIFE . . . October 19, 2008
Jessica Anya Blau, author, The Summer of Naked Swim Parties (Maryland)
. . . is the fact that I can't get my young daughter to sit through this movie! Perhaps I should think of some way to bribe her into watching it. I suppose I could tell her that she can't watch television EVER AGAIN IN HER LIFE unless she sits though The Sound of Music!
I first saw it at the movie theater. My friends and I walked back to the theater and watched it three days in a row. I don't know how many times I've seen it since, but I do know this: I can't look at thick curtains without thinking of pulling them down and having a dress sewn from them. I can't look at a brown paper package tied up with string (and string-tied packages are, sadly, so rare these days) without hearing the Favorite Things song in my head. I can barely hear the words SIXTEEN and SEVENTEEN in the same sentence without singing THAT song!
So, yes, the movie is in my heart and in my head. Now if only I could figure out some way to get it into my daughter's head! I'm open to suggestions if anyone wants to send them to me. (Send me a message on Myspace.)

what can one say in a review of the top musical of all time except...superb
 Lovely, simply lovely October 18, 2008

I bought this movie for my Mom, which she simply loved! The music is so wonderful, the children are lovable and the scenery perfect. We have actually visited the Von Trapp lodge in Vermont, here in the USA. At that time, Maria was not alive anymore, but we met her son. Nothing is better thatn finding a fairy story that is true...
Lives up to its reputation! October 3, 2008
Sonia Nat (Portland, Oregon, USA)
The musical is not my genre of choice. I prefer classic film-noirs which are about as diametrically opposed to musicals as a genre can be. That said I enjoyed The Sound of Music immensely. The songs were very moving and fit the storyline perfectly. Speaking of the story, unlike the case in a lot of musicals, the plot in The Sound of Music does not exist simply to move the film from one musical number to another. It is a truly memorable romance story that will stay with viewer long after the viewing experience. The entire cast is superb (the kids are adorable!). This was Julie Andrew's coup de grace. It deserves all the accolades (including multiple Oscars) it has received. Strongly recommended!

Overall, it is an excellent recording of one of the most outstanding American musical play. I will pass on the DVD to my grandchildren as a part of American cultural history of the twentieth century.
