The sisters Maria and Colonel Trapp have followed the classic for so many years, and their actors Julie Andrews and Christopher Plummer have been crowned immortal Hollywood goddesses and male gods. The Hong Kong film, titled "Fairy Tales of The Fairy Tales", won five awards at that year's Oscars, including Best Picture, Best Director (Robert White, who also directed the famous song and dance film "West End Story"), Best Editing, Best Sound, and Best Adapted Score, and Julie Andrews, who was nominated for Best Actress, although not ultimately closed, also won the fairy role in another classic song and dance film of the previous year, "Happy People".

In fact, "The Sound of Music" has a story that is not long or short, and it is extremely complicated.

Originally, the producers wanted to ask William Wheeler, the Hollywood magnate who had made the epic film "Bin Hur", to direct the film, and William Wheeler wanted to make a big change to the original script (a wonderful song and dance of the same name that premiered on Broadway in 1962, adapted from Maria von Tripp's book "The Tripp Family Orchestra", which was a huge success on Broadway that year), because in Wheeler's mind, "The Sound of Music" was completely different, and he even wanted to shoot some war scenes (the story of this film is set during World War II) to render the atmosphere. But then the plan was blocked and stranded.
In fact, two years before the musical was staged on Broadway, Paramount bought the story rights and planned to let Audrey Hepburn, who was still a newcomer, play The Nun Maria, but Hepburn felt that the script tension was not as good as another script, "Lady Lady", and refused to perform, and Paramount immediately abandoned the film plan.
Nowadays, it seems that two different types of song and dance films have achieved two classic goddesses. And looking at Hepburn and Andrews (the heroine of the drama version of "Lady Miao" is Julie Andrews, and the film version is replaced by Audrey Hepburn), there is indeed a similarity between the eyebrows.

History ended up choosing Fox and director Robert Wise (who had previously directed the Film "West End Story," which was also based on a Broadway classic, and won the Oscar for Best Director) to come together to make "The Sound of Music" a song and dance classic. But in Wise's mind, the best person to play Colonel von Trapp is the mysterious bald-headed tough guy star Yu Berner (the classic masterpiece "The Ten Commandments", "The King and Me" and the old version of "Westworld"), but Yu Berner's refusal eventually fulfills the male god Christopher Plummer.

In 1962, when the drama version of "The Sound of Music" was staged on Broadway, Andrews once ridiculed the role of "The Sound of Music" on the TV show, but she never expected that she would soon become the heroine of the film version and create a classic image in film history.

Coincidentally, Marnie Nickerson, who played the old nun Sophia in the film version of The Sound of Music, is a famous Hollywood spirit singer, and she has performed in many Hollywood classic song and dance films, such as "West End Story" (directed by Robert White) and "Anna and the King" (starring Yu Borena), her most famous voice performance is audrey Hepburn in "Lady Miao", and Julie Andrews has also played the flower girl starring Hepburn in the Broadway version of "Lady Miao".

In fact, all this may have been doomed from the beginning - not to mention that later in the "Princess Diary", Julie Andrews became the royal grandmother who raised Anne Hathaway as a princess, and the whole process was like a new "lady", and Hathaway was also the only successor to the modern Hepburn.
