Gone With The Twins

While many accuse it of being too saccharine, including director Robert Wise before he finally agreed to helm the project, 'The Sound of Music' is an extraordinary triumph, brilliantly balancing character, story, cinematography, and sound with lasting songs.

The Guardian

As a film, The Sound of Music has always been flawed; as a culture objet, it gets ever more diamantine.

The Hollywood Reporter

The Sound of Music is quite a picture. There are many reasons why this musical, from the lilting intelligence of Richard Rodgers and Oscar Hammerstein II, is such an enthralling success... It restores your faith in movies.

Variety

The magic and charm of Rodgers-Hammerstein-Lindsay-Crouse 1959 stage hit are sharply blended in this filmic translation which emerges one of the top musicals to reach the screen.

IMDb

"It still remains a guilty pleasure. I find myself going for a tub of rocky road ice cream and Rodgers & Hammerstein's immortal classic whenever the real world gets to be too much."
