I LOVE The Sound of Music. I grew up watching it and knew "Edelweiss" by heart before I was five. The Sound of Music is great for kids. Maria acts like a kid herself, and she is the loving mother that the kids need. The Sound of Music also teaches history (World War II) and different ways that people love people. The Baroness loves the Captain because of his money, and Maria loves the Captain and the children because of their personalities. Also, the nuns have a change of heart and include Maria into their circle of love and trust. Maria also teaches the kids that it is okay to have fun-they climb mountains, trees, they canoe (and swim in the process), put on a puppet show, and go perform in a giant auditorium.
It IS the best movie on the face of the planet!

This is such a good movie !
The Sound of Music 𝄞 is a drama musical. 'Course it won't be extremely exciting, but it wouldn't be extremely boring either. Maria is a great role model for children as well. To my understanding, Maria is studying to be a nun but happens to be more... bouncy and immature than qualified nuns would wish her to be. The songs were pretty nice and get stuck in my head a bunch (a good thing?). This movie is filled with positive messages. One example is that Maria is governing seven rude and undisciplined and their father is highly strict on them. Maria becomes compassionate and gentle, and soon the children warm up to her and show respect. Great family film!
Well said! I love this movie so much! Like this much: 😁
