Those where honestly the best days. Despite having seen the movie multiple times, I had never finished it until during quarantine when I decided to re-watch it. ]]> 2021-06-10 03:12:33 UTC https://padlet.com/saramaddie1/htjjcbptdm850t88/wish/1597497938 saramaddie1 https://padlet.com/saramaddie1/htjjcbptdm850t88/wish/1597517631 Sound of Music is a film that was based on an iconic play that debuted in 1959 on Broadway.

I can just really relate to her when she just kind of stops, looks at them, and just walks on. Like, dang, I got caught being late. ]]> 2021-06-10 03:31:40 UTC https://padlet.com/saramaddie1/htjjcbptdm850t88/wish/1597532927 saramaddie1 https://padlet.com/saramaddie1/htjjcbptdm850t88/wish/1597541112 Because I grew up with this film it brings back a feeling of nostalgia from when I was younger. I can sing along with the songs even though its been years since I have seen the movie. 
I also just love the cinematography and Maria's character. The big sweeping landscapes and hills, the beautiful houses and quiet town, and Maria's attitude to explore and enjoy life. ]]> 2021-06-10 03:36:13 UTC https://padlet.com/saramaddie1/htjjcbptdm850t88/wish/1597541112 saramaddie1 https://padlet.com/saramaddie1/htjjcbptdm850t88/wish/1597554403 The sound of music was filmed in various locations around Salzburg, Austria.  including Leopoldskron Palace, Frohnburg Palace, the Mirabell Palace Gardens, the old town of Salzburg, the basilica in Mondsee, and many more.]]> 2021-06-10 03:44:04 UTC https://padlet.com/saramaddie1/htjjcbptdm850t88/wish/1597554403 saramaddie1 https://padlet.com/saramaddie1/htjjcbptdm850t88/wish/1597560863 The initial response of the film was mixed, but within four week it had become the highest-grossing film of 1965 thus saving 20th Century Fox after it's film Cleopatra flopped. ]]> 2021-06-10 03:47:41 UTC https://padlet.com/saramaddie1/htjjcbptdm850t88/wish/1597560863 saramaddie1 https://padlet.com/saramaddie1/htjjcbptdm850t88/wish/1597562111 This was the last Rodger and Hammerstein musical.
