DVD Reviews of The Sound of Music (Single Disc Full Screen Edition)
DVD Review: Glorious movie!
Summary: 5 Stars
I can't say enough of the quality of this film. The acting, music, directing...all genius. It is timeless and a great family film. Julie Andrews has a beautiful voice, as does Christopher Plummer. I have read books on the real Von Trapp family, and certainly, Hollywood took some liberties, however, because it's such a wonderful film, we can forgive them!DVD Review: Sound of Music
Summary: 5 Stars
One of my most favorite movies, couldn't find it anywhere. So glad amazon had it. Recieved it very fast!!DVD Review: One of the best
Summary: 5 Stars
It's hard to write a review that would add to the long list of existing reviews, but i'd like to add one thing. My 6 year old daughter loves this movie. She sings the songs and copies the dances and just adores the whole thing. What more could you ask from a movie. 5 stars. DVD Review: A Beloved, Very Likable Film
Summary: 4 Stars
For some reason, it took me over 30 years to finally watch this film, something I did in 1998....and I could see why this is such a beloved film.
The film is a throwback to something you might see in the 1930s or '40s - a super-nice, old-fashioned movie led by Julie Andrews, who probably never again looked as pretty and wholesome as she did here.She's a joy to watch. The kids are all nice, attractive and well-behaved, something else you don't see much anymore on film.
The film is nicely photographed, too, and I don't mean just the Austrian Alps. Was it perfect? No. I did think there were too many songs in here, some of them done twice. That's too much. There were a few other things, but it's nit-picking. Overall, a film which lives up to its lofty reputation.
DVD Review: Excellent--A Must Have
Summary: 5 Stars
A must have dvd for any Sound of Music fan. If you have a choice, buy the 40th anniversary edition, it is well worth the few extra dollars.
Description of The Sound of Music (Single Disc Full Screen Edition)
Some people may sneer at this 1965 musical, but the truth is the film has earned its status as a perennially watchable romantic-drama, largely on the strength of a fun story and chemistry between stars Julie Andrews and Christopher Plummer. Veteran filmmaker Robert Wise (The Day the Earth Stood Still) mostly stays out of the way of the film's appealing elements, which include a based-on-fact tale of Austria's von Trapp family, who fled their Nazi-occupied country in 1938. Andrews is delightful and even fascinating as Maria, who sheds her tomboyish ways as a novice nun to accept the mantle of adulthood, becoming matron of the motherless von Trapp clan. Plummer is matinee-idol handsome and gives a smart performance to boot, and the cast of young people and kids who make up the singing von Trapp children make a strong impression. Based on the Rodgers and Hammerstein stage musical, the score includes such winners as "Maria" and the future John Coltrane hit "My Favorite Things." --Tom KeoghBiography DVDs
