The film The Sound of Music is based on a true story that took place in Austria in 1938.
The trainee nun Maria is a cheerful and enthusiastic girl who loves to sing and dance, and she loves the freshness and tranquility of nature. But the abbot felt that Maria was not comfortable with this life of isolation from the dust, so she came to Salzburg and became a tutor for the seven children of the von Trapp family, a former retired officer of the Austrian Imperial Navy.
During this time, Mary cared about what the children did as they grew up, and soon became their close friends and developed a deep relationship. She taught 7 children to practice chorus together and formed a very literate family choir, which aroused the Colonel's love of life and his love for Mary. Mary also loves the kind and determined Colonel, and they eventually form a happy partner.
On the eve of Hitler's preparations for the annexation of Austria in the 1930s, the Nazis had already sniffed out the colonel's strong smell of freedom and ordered him to return to the Navy immediately, and his whole family was under surveillance. Eventually, Mary cleverly took advantage of the folk song festival, and with the help of nuns and friends, the family crossed the Alps, escaped from the difficult motherland, and came to the land of freedom.
Born in England, Julie Andrews began performing on stage at the age of 10. Beginning in 1954 she played many classic roles on broadway. In 1965, Julie starred in the movie "The Sound of Music", which caused great uproar, she played the free-loving, cheerful and kind nun in the play, and the graceful dance and beautiful singing voice made people fall for it. In 1998, the famous actress who had been active on the Broadway stage and made a career in singing had to undergo surgery due to an illness in the throat area, and has since lost her beautiful voice. It wasn't until 2003 that she reappeared as an elegant queen in the movie "The Princess Diaries", and also an old grandmother who loved her granddaughter, looking at the screen and still dancing beautifully, I don't know how many people can associate this "grandmother" with the energetic Maria...
"The Sound of Music" is fresh and elegant, and several classic music is widely circulated, such as the theme song "The Sound of Music", which expresses Lilia's love for nature, the pleasant "Lonely Shepherd", the cheerful "Doraemon", etc., which have become the most cherished and carefully savored artistic masterpieces. Among them, The soulful Austrian folk song "Edelweiss" sung by Colonel Trapp is the most familiar song and painting for people born in the 70s.
Edelweiss, edelweiss, opens to me in the morning.
Edelweiss, Edelweiss, bless my hometown forever...
If the famous song "Friendship Lasts Forever" often rings out when people born in the 70s bid farewell to graduation, then "Edelweiss" may bring more cheerful memories - because it is often sung at New Year's Day parties. Today, whenever "Edelweiss" is reverberated in the air as a holiday song and "Jingle Bells" around Christmas, I believe that many people born in the 70s will remember the nervous and shy way they sang this song to the whole class and even the whole school at the party. Then, the whole winter will be warmed up by these memories.
The film The Sound of Music is based on Maria Augustus
Trapp's autobiographical novel of the same name, based on the American Broadway musical of the same name, is one of the most classic musicals in the history of world cinema. At the end of the film, the von Temp family is on the top of the Alpine mountain, and the sun is shining. You have been living their lives for the light of day, but not for the better. In 2003, Agatha von Trapp, the archetype of the eldest daughter in The Sound of Wind Music, published a new book at the age of 90, "Before and After the Birth of the Voice of Lu Le", which tells the real life of the family. After they left Austria, they became penniless and had to enter and sell art for a living. In 1939, they came to the small town of Stowe in Vermont, USA, and felt that the mountains here were particularly like their hometown, so they settled here. In 1947, Maria founded the Trapp Family Music Camp in Stowe. As the music camp expanded, her family's overnight rooms became less available, so she built Trapp Villa.
In 1980, a fire reduced the Trapp family's hard-working Trapp Villa to ashes. But setbacks and lessons have failed to bring the immigrant family down. A year and a half later, a brand new Trapp Hill appeared on the original foundation, welcoming thousands of visitors each year who loved the Trapp family's experience and their songs. From a fleeing victim without a penny to a successful career, the Trapp family has suffered a lot: the eldest daughter once could not feel the strict house rules led to insanity; Maria's autobiography was adapted into a musical with great success, but she was deceived and did not get paid in any way...
The movie "The Sound of Music" is so different from real life but loved by so many people, perhaps the answer is that it is a positive and healthy story that can evoke the emotional resonance of the audience, everything is simple and bright, black and white contrast, so the whole world remembers the Salzburg afternoon valley, the sun is shining, 7 children and a beautiful girl, with songs to let go of love, freedom and dreams - that should be the yearning for peace and freedom of all mankind!
"Maybe my childhood was naughty, maybe I spent my teenage years in pain. But on that mischievous day of management, there must be a moment of honesty. Because you're standing here, loving me, whether you should or not.
When the Colonel said to Mary, "I love you," the happy Mary sang with joy.
"When God closes one door, he necessarily opens another window.
One of the most classic lines in The Sound of Music.
