Prior to directing "The Sound of Music" (1965), Wise directed the psychological horror film "The Haunting" (1963), starring Julie Harris, in an adaptation of Shirley Jackson's novel, "The Haunting of Hill House". Wise's big-budget adaptation of Richard Rodgers and Oscar Hammerstein's family-oriented musical "The Sound of Music", with Julie Andrews as Maria and Christopher Plummer as Captain von Trapp, became one of film history's highest grossing movies. Wise won Academy Awards for Best Director and Best Picture for "The Sound of Music (film)|The Sound of Music" for 1965. Wise struggled to keep "The Sound of Music" from being an overly sweet, sentimental story by cutting lesser-known songs and adding new dialogue to improve transitions. In addition to garnering Wise two Oscars, the film won three more for editing, sound and scoring of music for an adaptation.
