It's a mostly true story, and extremely wholesome. But know that when the Nazi part happened, the producers didn't tell anyone what was happening and the citizens of Salzburg were freaked out!!!!!
The Sound of Music is set in the Tyrolean Alps and not produced by Netflix, so there are no token minorities in it. There is, however, opposition to Nazis!
My mom made me attend a live showing of this in the same vein as the live showings of Rocky Horror. She made a costume for me and dressed me up. She did not dress up. I did not like the sound of music before during or after this experience
My mom always commented on how it was sad that Maria's nun friends had to watch her get married from behind that fence in the church. And how it probably felt weird to hear them all sing about how they didn't know what to do with her, during her wedding.

Christopher Plummer so great and yet not even nominated for Best Actor (to be fair it was a great year for films)

When you know the notes to sing, can you really sing most anything??
Are these AMAs gonna be a one off or are you gonna do a bunch of musicals, ‘cause I’d be HERE for that.
