A Most Beautiful Masterpiece

Rating: 9/10 (11 February 2019)

I don't tend to use the word "timeless" to describe movies, but this is a rare example where I do. "The Sound of Music" is a very powerful, vivid flick that will surprise people like myself, whom don't really like musicals. It's one of the most engaging films I've ever seen, even after only seeing it twice, now.
The music is timeless.
The acting--especially between Julie Andrews and Christopher Plummer--is wonderful. This was made in a time where child actors were nowhere as cringey as they tend to be, nowadays, and I want to give those kids a round of applause for their hard work, here.
Even the dancing is lively and sweet!
I did not like "Mary Poppins" much, due to how overlong it was. But this movie earns every second it has to tell its story. I promise you that.
"The Sound Of Music" is a wonder in and of itself, and if you haven't seen it, you must. I think there's something here for everyone whom enjoys film and filmmaking. I couldn't possibly recommend it enough. Especially due to the stellar and tense finale we're given. Man, it was so, sooooo good.
What a true classic!
