The Sound of Music (Why We Love Cinema)
A cheerful and music-loving young governess arrives at the home of a strict widower to care for his seven children. Gradually, she transforms the household with her joy and love of music, winning the father's heart and bringing new life and happiness to the family.
"Every shot is extremely well-crafted, with great attention to light and framing, editing is fluid, and the songs are an integral part of the story. The actors are wonderfully directed. Julie Andrews 'is' Maria, constantly fresh and vibrant. However, the real highlight is Christopher Plummer, a Shakespearean actor who feared damaging his image by appearing in this 'treat,' yet whose humorous portrayal adds so much to the character of Captain von Trapp and to the whole film."

"The 20th-Fox release will be one of the movies' all-time hits, one of the all-time great pictures. It restores your faith in movies. If you sit quietly and let it take, it may also restore your faith in humanity. It does this with infectious wit, with consistent gaiety, with simple and realistic spirituality, with romance of heartbreak and heartmend. This is set against the most beautiful scenery you have seen in your life. The Sound of Music is quite a picture." (The Hollywood Reporter)
