Fantastic Movie!

Rating: Null/10 (22 September 2011)

Based in Austria during the 1930's, The Sound of Music is about a girl Maria (Julie Andrews) who has a deep desire to become a nun. However, Maria has an aptitude for getting herself in trouble, and is therefore ordered to work as a governess for Navy captain Georg Von Trapp. The seven Von Trapp family children have scared away their past governesses, mainly due to their pranks and rudeness. Eventually, Maria wins the affection of the unhappy children as well as the strict captain. The once hostile household becomes one of laughter, kindness, and—of course—singing.
Though The Sound of Music is a timeless love story, it is riddled with danger and suspense. Captain Von Trapp refuses to join the ranks of Nazii Germany, and his family is put in harms way as they attempt to evade the injustices of their country. Captain Von Trapp is considered a traitor by his ranks, but he is determined to do all he can to keep his family safe.
