Julie Andrews is this film.

Rating: 10/10 (18 September 2009)

There are some films where you need one celebrity to make a film work. This is one of those films. If Julie Andrews wasn't in this film, this film would be screwed. Not screwed even, probably f*cked. Though, the film is fantastic anyways. This four time Oscar winning sensation is one of the best musicals of all time.
Julie Andrews stars as Maria, a nun who is just so in love with the world. The nuns get tired of it, so they send her off to become the nanny of Colonel Von Trapp's house. There are tons of kids in the family. At first, the kids don't like her, but they soon start to. There are many things going on in the house. The oldest daughter is dating a Nazi. The father (Played by Christopher Plummer) is engaged to a bitch. Maria soon falls in love with the father, and the father soon falls for her.
This three hour long musical is fantastic. It deserved best picture in my opinion. If I were alive in 1965 and I was running the Oscars, I would've voted for this film also. There are many great musicals. I even loved Mamma Mia. The Sopund of music is definitely one of the best.
