Those of us who have not had the good fortune of watching the movie The Sound of
Music, may care to get a copy of the Video CD Pack brought out in India by Excel
Home Videos.
Since the movie
was a timeless classic, we are tempted to post some excerpts from it on our
Website.
First, a little
about the story background:
The Sound of
Music is a magical, heart - warming story of a spirited young nun - Maria who
gets sent to be the governess of Captain Von Trapp's 7 children as his wife died
years back & goes away alot. The Children have drove all the other governesses
away by playing tricks on them, to get their father's attention however with
"fraulein" (young lady) Maria they take to her kindness, and she brings music &
love back into the hearts of the children & the Captain, who although is engaged
to the Baroness, is falling madly in love with Maria, & she is him, it is only
when the Baroness tells Maria that the Captain loves her she panics & returns to
the Abby, where the Rev. Mother tells her she has to look for her life, & so she
returns to the home of the Captain & Children by which time Georg Von Trapp
decides he can't marry the Baroness if he's in love with Maria, & calls off his
engagement & tells Maria. The happy ending comes when Maria & Georg Marry, but
have to leave Austria as he has to take a position in the Navy round the time
the Nazis were in Power.
The Sound of Music is based on a true story surrounding
The Von Trapp's, & the 40th Anniversary DVD of this has many special features
inc. a 50 min documentary on the real Von Trapp Family. This is one of the best
films of all time & will always be a classic for all the family.
We bring to
you a trailer of the movie courtesy Liberated Films.
