My favorite part of the film is the historical setting of the story. It was such a dangerous time in Europe for so many and to see this family in that situation makes the reality of those times all the more real for me.
Gretel. Without question, Gretel. If I can only pick one thing, that is.
I am happy to say, you just won our first drawing! Congratulations! 🙂
I didn’t get an email, unless I am losing my mind. I looked back at this post.
No problem, all is good now! Hope you enjoy the book! 🙂
The love story set against what was happening in Europe and the music, music, music!
Congratulations on winning this week’s giveaway! I will email you in a minute 🙂
i like the music and outfits they wear and the scenery it is pretty and the singing
What I love most about the sound of music is literally the music. I used to listen to the soundtrack on the bus to school in high school and Julie Andrews’ dulcet tones helped get me ready for the day. The song “I Have Confidence” singlehandedly helped me survive the four toughest years of my life. Maria’s trials gave me confidence as much as her heroic success in escaping the Nazis with her family gave me hope for overcoming my own teenage trials. And “Lonely Goatherd” reminded me to see the silliness in life.
I am so sorry – first line should read: “What I love most about THE SOUND OF MUSIC (1965)…”
Where are my manners!?
Oh gosh, I just adore the music too! Uplifting, beautiful… understatement…
I love the Sound of Music because of its rich cast of characters. Each time I watch the film or see the musical, I find myself relating to a different character. Best of all, this musical is timeless, and very well loved by all generations! It’s also fascinating to delve into the real-life stories of some of these characters. A perfect mix of music and history!
Congratulation! You’ve just won a copy of the book! I will email you in a bit… 🙂
I love the idea of getting kids to line up by blowing a whistle. I’d like to see more of that nowadays.
Hi Chris, Congratulations, you just won our Facebook contest. I will email you today, if you don’t get the email, please let me know. Thanks!
What I love most about The Sound of Music is Julie Andrews, singing her heart out in various beautiful locations in Salzburg.
I love the music. Rodgers and Hammerstein have been favorites of mine since my mother took me to my first theater show.
