The film is an adaptation of the 1959 stage musical of the same name, composed by Richard Rodgers with lyrics by Oscar Hammerstein II. The film's screenplay was written by Ernest Lehman, adapted from the stage musical's book by Lindsay and Crouse. Based on the memoir The Story of the Trapp Family Singers by Maria von Trapp, the film is about a young Austrian woman studying to become a nun in Salzburg, Austria in 1938 who is sent to the villa of a retired naval officer and widower to be governess to his seven children. [4] After bringing and teaching love and music into the lives of the family through kindness and patience, she marries the officer and together with the children they find a way to survive the loss of their homeland through courage and faith. The film was released on March 2, 1965 in the United States, initially as a limited roadshow theatrical release. Although critical response to the film was widely mixed, the film was a major commercial success, becoming the number one box office movie after four weeks, and the highest-grossing film of 1965. By November 1966, The Sound of Music had become the highest-grossing film of all-time—surpassing Gone with the Wind—and held that distinction for five years. The film was just as popular throughout the world, breaking previous box-office records in twenty-nine countries. Following an initial theatrical release that lasted four and a half years, and two successful re-releases, the film sold 283 million admissions worldwide and earned a total worldwide gross of $286,000,000. The Sound of Music received five Academy Awards, including Best Picture and Best Director. The film also received two Golden Globe Awards, for Best Motion Picture and Best Actress, the Directors Guild of America Award for Outstanding Directorial Achievement, and the Writers Guild of America Award for Best Written American Musical. In 1998, the American Film Institute (AFI) listed The Sound of Music as the fifty-fifth greatest American movie of all time, and the fourth greatest movie musical. In 2001, the United States Library of Congress selected the film for preservation in the National Film Registry, finding it "culturally, historically, or aesthetically significant".

convincing Maria that she must return to the abbey. Back at the abbey, when Mother Abbess learns that Maria has stayed
in seclusion to avoid her feelings for the Captain, she encourages her to return to the villa to look for her life. After Maria
returns to the villa, she learns about the Captain's engagement to the Baroness and agrees to stay until they find a
replacement governess. The Captain's feelings for Maria, however, have not changed, and after breaking off his
engagement the Captain marries Maria.
While the Captain and Maria are on their honeymoon, Max enters the children in the Salzburg Festival against their
father's wishes. When they learn that Austria has been annexed by the Third Reich in the Anschluss, the couple return to
their home, where a telegram awaits informing the Captain that he must report to the German Naval base at Bremerhaven
to accept a commission in the German Navy. Strongly opposed to the Nazis and the Anschluss, the Captain tells his family
they must leave Austria immediately for Switzerland. Many of the Von Trapps' friends are prepared to accept the new
regime, including Rolfe, whom Liesl is devastated to see has joined the Hitler Youth. That night, as the von Trapp family
attempt to leave, they are stopped by a group of Brownshirts waiting outside the villa. When questioned by Gauleiter Hans
Zeller, the Captain maintains they are headed to the Salzburg Festival to perform. Zeller insists on escorting them to the
festival, after which his men will accompany the Captain to Bremerhaven.
Later that night at the festival, during their final number, the von Trapp family slip away and seek shelter at the nearby
abbey, where Mother Abbess hides them in the cemetery crypt. Brownshirts soon arrive and search the abbey, and the
family is discovered by Rolfe. Upon seeing Liesl, he hesitates raising the alarm long enough to allow the family time to flee,
and the family is able to escape using the caretaker's car. When the soldiers attempt to pursue, they discover their cars will
not start as two nuns have removed parts of the engines. The next morning, after driving to the Swiss border, the von
Trapp family make their way on foot across the frontier into Switzerland to safety and freedom.

Trapp's memoir, The Story of the Trapp FamilySingers, published in 1949 to help promote her
family's singing group following the death of her
husband Georg in 1947.[5] Hollywood producers
expressed interest in purchasing the title only, but
Maria refused, wanting her entire story to be told.[5]
In 1956, German producer Wolfgang Liebeneiner
purchased the film rights for $9,000 (equivalent to
$83,000 in 2018), hired George Hurdalek and
Herbert Reinecker to write the screenplay, and Franz
Grothe to supervise the soundtrack, which consisted
of traditional Austrian folk songs.[6] The TrappFamily was released in West Germany on October 9,
1956 and became a major success.[5] Two years later,
Liebeneiner directed a sequel, The Trapp Family inAmerica, and the two pictures became the most
successful films in West Germany during the post-
war years.[5] Their popularity extended throughout
Europe and South America.[5]
In 1956, Paramount Pictures purchased the United
States film rights, intending to produce an English-
language version with Audrey Hepburn as Maria.[5]
The studio eventually dropped its option, but one of
its directors, Vincent J. Donehue, proposed the story
as a stage musical for Mary Martin.[5] Producers Richard Halliday and Leland Heyward secured the rights and hired
playwrights Howard Lindsay and Russel Crouse, who had won the Pulitzer Prize for State of the Union.[6] They
approached Richard Rodgers and Oscar Hammerstein II to compose one song for the musical, but the composers felt the
two styles—traditional Austrian folk songs and their composition—would not work together.[6] They offered to write a
complete new score for the entire production if the producers were willing to wait while they completed work on FlowerDrum Song.[7] The producers quickly responded that they would wait as long as necessary.[7] The Sound of Music stage
musical opened on November 16, 1959 at the Lunt-Fontanne Theatre in New York City and ran on Broadway for 1,443
performances, winning six Tony Awards, including Best Musical.[8] In June 1960, Twentieth Century Fox purchased the
film adaptation rights to the stage musical for $1.25 million (equivalent to $10,600,000 in 2018) against ten percent of the
gross.[9][Note 1]
For the film, Richard Rodgers added two new songs, "I Have Confidence" and "Something Good", for which he wrote the
lyrics as well as the music (Hammerstein having died in August 1960), while three of the original stage songs were
omitted,[10] "How Can Love Survive", "No Way To Stop It" and "An Ordinary Couple". Arranger and conductor Irwin
Kostal prerecorded the songs with a large orchestra and singers on a stage prior to the start of filming, and later adapted
instrumental underscore passages based on the songs. Choreographers Marc Breaux and Dee Dee Wood, who had worked
with Andrews on Mary Poppins, worked out all new choreography sequences that incorporated many of the Salzburg

locations and settings. The Sound of Music was filmed from March 26 through September 1, 1964, with external scenes
shot on location in Salzburg, Austria, and the surrounding region, and interior scenes filmed at the 20th Century Fox
studios in California. The movie was photographed in 70 mm Todd-AO by Ted McCord and produced with DeLuxe Color
processing and six-track sound recording.
In December 1962, 20th Century Fox president Richard D. Zanuck hired Ernest
Lehman to write the screenplay for the film adaptation of the stage musical.[11] Lehman
reviewed the original script for the stage musical, rearranged the sequence of songs,
and began transforming a work designed for the stage into a film that could use the
camera to emphasize action and mood, and open the story up to the beautiful locations
of Salzburg and the Austrian Alps.[12] The "Do-Re-Mi" sequence in the play, for
example, was originally a stagnant number; Lehman transformed it into a lively
montage showing some of the beautiful sites of Salzburg, as well as showing Maria and
the children growing closer over time.[12] Lehman also eliminated two songs, "How Can
Love Survive?" and "No Way to Stop It", sung by the characters of Elsa and Max.[12] In
January 1963, he saw the Fox English-dubbed version of the two German films. Not
especially impressed, he decided to use the stage musical and Maria's memoir for most
of his source material.[13] While Lehman was developing the screenplay, he and Zanuck
began looking for a director. Their first choice was Robert Wise, with whom Lehman
had worked on the film adaptation of West Side Story, but Wise was busy preparing work for another film, The SandPebbles.[14] Other directors were approached and turned down the offer, including Stanley Donen, Vincent J. Donehue,
George Roy Hill, and Gene Kelly.[15]
In January 1963, Lehman invited one of his favorite directors, William Wyler, to travel to New York City with him to see
the Broadway musical. After seeing the show, Wyler said he hated it, but after two weeks of Lehman's persuasion, Wyler
reluctantly agreed to direct and produce the film.[16] After hiring musical supervisor Roger Edens, Wyler, Lehman, and
Edens traveled to Salzburg to scout filming locations.[17] In two weeks they managed to see approximately seventy-five
locations—an experience that helped Lehman conceptualize several important sequences.[18] During that trip, Lehman
began to have reservations about Wyler's commitment to the project, and communicated this to Zanuck, who instructed
the writer to finalize the first draft of the screenplay as quickly as possible.[19] Lehman completed the first draft on
September 10, 1963 and sent it to Wyler, who had no suggestions or changes.[19] At that time, Lehman also secretly gave a
copy of the script to the agent of Robert Wise, whom Lehman still wanted as the director.[19] Later that month, Wyler's
agent approached Zanuck asking that production on the film be delayed so Wyler could direct The Collector. Zanuck told
him to tell Wyler to make the other film, and that they would move ahead on schedule with another director, ending
Wyler's participation.[19]
Meanwhile, Wise, whose film The Sand Pebbles had been postponed, read Lehman's first draft, was impressed by what he
read, and agreed to direct the film.[20] Wise joined the picture in October 1963,[21] and flew to Salzburg with associate
producer Saul Chaplin and members of his production team to scout filming locations, including many that Wyler had
identified.[22] When he returned, Wise began working on the script. Wise shared Lehman's vision of the film being
centered on the music, and the changes he made were consistent with the writer's approach—mainly reducing the amount
of sweetness and sentimentality found in the stage musical.[21] He had reservations about Lehman's opening aerial
sequence because West Side Story, whose screenplay Lehman had also written, had used a similar opening sequence, but
he was unable to think of a better one and decided to keep Lehman's.[21] Other changes included replacing "An Ordinary
Couple" with a more romantic number, and a new song for Maria's departure from the abbey—Rodgers provided
"Something Good" and "I Have Confidence" especially for the film.[23] Lehman completed the second draft on December
20, 1963,[24] but additional changes would be made based on input from Maria von Trapp and Christopher Plummer
about the character of the Captain. Plummer especially helped transform a character lacking substance into a stronger,
more forceful complex figure with a wry sense of humor and a darker edge.[25] Lehman completed his final draft on March
20, 1964.[26]
Lehman's first and only choice for Maria was Julie Andrews.[27] When Wise
joined the project, he made a list of his choices for the role, which included
Andrews as his first choice, Grace Kelly, and Shirley Jones.[28] Wise and
Lehman went to Disney Studios to view footage from Mary Poppins, which
was not yet released. A few minutes into the film, Wise told Lehman, "Let's go
sign this girl before somebody else sees this film and grabs her!"[27] Andrews
had some reservations—mainly about the amount of sweetness in the theatrical
version—but when she learned that her concerns were shared by Wise and
Lehman and what their vision was, she signed a contract with Fox to star in
The Sound of Music and one other film for $225,000 (equivalent to
$1,820,000 in 2018).[29] Wise had a more difficult time casting the role of the
Captain. A number of actors were considered for the part, including Bing
Crosby, Yul Brynner, Sean Connery, and Richard Burton.[30] Wise had seen
Christopher Plummer on Broadway and wanted him for the role, but the stage actor turned down the offer several times.
Wise flew to London to meet with Plummer and explained his concept of the film; the actor accepted after being assured
that he could work with Lehman to improve the character;[31] Plummer later described himself as having become quite
arrogant at the time, "spoiled by too many great theater roles".[32]
Wise also spent considerable time and effort on casting the secondary characters. For the role of Max Detweiler, Wise
initially considered Victor Borge, Noël Coward, and Hal Holbrook among others before deciding on Richard Haydn.[31]
For the character of Baroness Elsa Schraeder, Wise looked for a "name" actress—Andrews and Plummer were not yet
widely known to film audiences—and decided on Eleanor Parker.[33] The casting of the children characters began in
November 1963 and involved over two hundred interviews and auditions throughout the United States and England.[34]
Some of the child-actors interviewed or tested, who were not selected, included Mia Farrow, Patty Duke, Lesley Ann
Warren, Geraldine Chaplin, Shelley Fabares, Teri Garr, Kurt Russell, and The Osmonds.[35] Most of the actors selected
had some acting, singing, or dancing experience. Charmian Carr, however, was a model who worked part-time in a
doctor's office and had no ambition to pursue a career as an actress.[36] After a friend sent her photo to Wise's office, she
was asked to interview. Wise later recalled, "She was so pretty and had such poise and charm that we liked her
immediately."[36] The last person to be cast was Daniel Truhitte in the role of Rolfe.[36]
Rehearsals for the singing and dance sequences began on February 10, 1964.[37] The husband-and-wife team of Marc
Breaux and Dee Dee Wood, who had worked with Andrews on Mary Poppins, worked out the choreography with Saul
Chaplin on piano—the arrangements could not be altered under Rodgers and Hammerstein's contract.[38] The stage
choreography was not used because it was too restrictive.[39] Breaux and Wood worked out all new choreography better
suited for film that incorporated many of the Salzburg locations and settings.[39] They even choreographed the newly
added puppet dance sequence for "The Lonely Goatherd".[40] The choreography for the Ländler strictly followed the
traditional Austrian folk dance.[39] The musical arranger Irwin Kostal prerecorded the songs with a large orchestra and
singers on a stage prior to the start of filming.[41] In her book, The Sound of Music: The Making of America's FavoriteMovie, Julia Antopol Hirsch says that Kostal used seven children and five adults to record the children's voices; the only

The Sound of Music was filmed in 70 mm Todd-AO by Ted McCord and produced with DeLuxe Color processing.[59] Aerial
footage was photographed with an MCS-70 camera.[59] The sound was recorded on 70 mm six-track using a Westrex
recording system.[1][59] The sets used for the film were based on the storyboards of sketch artist Maurice Zuberano,[60]
who accompanied Wise to Austria to scout filming locations in November 1963.[61] Wise met with the artist over a ten-
week period and explained his objective for each scene—the feeling he wanted to convey and the visual images he wanted
to use.[60] When Zuberano was finished, he provided Wise with a complete set of storyboards that illustrated each scene
and set—storyboards the director used as guidance during filming.[60] Zuberano's storyboards and location photos were
also used by art director Boris Leven to design and construct all of the original interior sets at Fox studios, as well as some
external sets in Salzburg.[62] The von Trapp villa, for example, was actually filmed in several locations: the front and back
façades of the villa were filmed at Frohnburg Palace, the lakeside terrace and gardens were a set constructed on a property
adjacent to Schloss Leopoldskron called Bertelsmann, and the interior was a constructed set at Fox studios.[63] The gazebo
scenes for "Something Good" and "Sixteen Going on Seventeen" were filmed on a larger reconstructed set at Fox studios,
while some shots of the original gazebo were filmed on the grounds at Schloss Leopoldskron in Salzburg.[64][65][Note 3]
Robert Wise hired Mike Kaplan to direct the publicity campaign for the film.[66] After reading the script, Kaplan decided
on the ad line "The Happiest Sound in All the World", which would appear on promotional material and artwork.[66]
Kaplan also brought in outside agencies to work with the studio's advertising department to develop the promotional
artwork, eventually selecting a painting by Howard Terpning of Andrews on an alpine meadow with her carpetbag and
guitar case in hand with the children and Plummer in the background.[67][68][Note 4] In February 1964, Kaplan began
placing ads in the trade papers Daily Variety, Weekly Variety, and The Hollywood Reporter to attract future exhibitor
interest in the project.[66] The studio intended the film to have an initial roadshow theatrical release in select large cities in
theaters that could accommodate the 70-mm screenings and six-track stereophonic sound.[69] The roadshow concept
involved two showings a day with reserved seating and an intermission similar to Broadway musicals.[69] Kaplan
identified forty key cities that would likely be included in the roadshow release and developed a promotional strategy
targeting the major newspapers of those cities.[67] During the Salzburg production phase, 20th Century Fox organized
press junkets for America journalists to interview Wise and his team and the cast members.[67]
The film had its opening premiere on March 2, 1965 at the Rivoli Theater in
New York City.[71][72] Initial reviews were mixed.[73] Bosley Crowther, in TheNew York Times, criticized the film's "romantic nonsense and sentiment", the
children's "artificial roles", and Robert Wise's "cosy-cum-corny" direction.[74]
Judith Crist, in a biting review in the New York Herald Tribune, dismissed the
movie as "icky sticky" and designed for "the five to seven set and their
mommies".[71] In her review for McCall's magazine, Pauline Kael called the
film "the sugar-coated lie people seem to want to eat", and that audiences have
"turned into emotional and aesthetic imbeciles when we hear ourselves
humming the sickly, goody-goody songs".[75] [Note 5] Wise later recalled, "The
East Coast, intellectual papers and magazines destroyed us, but the local
papers and the trades gave us great reviews".[69] Indeed, reviewers such as
Philip K. Scheuer of the Los Angeles Times described the film as "three hours of visual and vocal brilliance",[69] and

Critical response
"No one is comfortable with anexcess of hearts and flowers, butthere is no valid reason for hidinghonest emotion. This has alwaysbeen a major element in thetheatre, and it's my convictionthat anyone who can't, onoccasion, be sentimental aboutchildren, home or nature is sadlymaladjusted."[70]
Variety called it "a warmly-pulsating, captivating drama set to the most imaginative use of the lilting R-H tunes,
magnificently mounted and with a brilliant cast".[69] The "wildly mixed film reviews" reflected the critical response to the
stage musical, according to The Oxford Companion to the American Musical.[77] After its Los Angeles premiere on March
10, The Sound of Music opened in 131 theaters in the United States, including a limited number of roadshow events.[69]
After four weeks, the film became the number one box office movie in the country, and held that position for thirty out of
the next forty-three weeks in 1965.[78] The original theatrical release of the film in America lasted four and a half years.[78]
A few months after its United States release, The Sound of Music opened in 261 theaters overseas—the first American
movie to be completely dubbed in a foreign language, both dialogue and music.[79] The German, French, Italian, and
Spanish versions were completely dubbed, the Japanese version had Japanese dialogue with English songs, and other
versions were released with foreign subtitles. The film was a popular success in every country it opened, except the two
countries where the story originated, Austria and Germany.[80] In these countries, the film had to compete with the much-
loved Die Trapp-Familie (1956), which provided the original inspiration for the Broadway musical, and its sequel DieTrapp-Familie in Amerika (1958)—both films still widely popular in German-speaking Europe and considered the
authoritative von Trapp story.[80] Austrians took exception to the liberties taken by the filmmakers with regard to the
costumes, which did not reflect traditional style, and the replacement of traditional Austrian folk songs with Broadway
show tunes.[80] The film's Nazi theme was especially unpopular in Germany, where the Munich branch manager for 20th
Century Fox approved the unauthorized cutting of the entire third act of the film following the wedding sequence—the
scenes showing Salzburg following the Anschluss. Robert Wise and the studio intervened, the original film was restored,
and the branch manager was fired.[81]
The Sound of Music is one of the most commercially successful films of all time.[82] Four weeks after its theatrical release,
it became the number one box office movie in the United States, from revenue generated by twenty-five theaters, each
screening only ten roadshow performances per week.[78] It held the number one position for thirty of the next forty-three
weeks,[78] and ended up the highest-grossing film of 1965.[83] One contributing factor in the film's early commercial
success was the repeat business of many filmgoers.[79] In some cities in the United States, the number of tickets sold
exceeded the total population.[79][Note 6] By January 1966, the film had earned $20 million in distributor rentals from just
140 roadshow engagements in the United States and Canada.[84] Overseas, The Sound of Music broke previous box-office
records in twenty-nine countries,[85] including the United Kingdom, where the film earned £4 million in rentals and
grossed £6 million—more than twice as much as any other film had ever taken in.[85] It was also a major success in
Holland, Hong Kong and Tokyo, where it played for as long as two years at some theaters. It was not a universal success,
however, with the film only enjoying modest success in France and it was a flop in Germany. It also initially performed
poorly in Italy, but a re-release after the Oscars brought better results.[86] By November 1966, The Sound of Music had
become the highest-grossing film of all-time,[85] surpassing Gone with the Wind, which held that distinction for twenty-
four years.[87][Note 7]
In November 1969, The Sound of Music completed its initial four-and-a-half year theatrical release run in the United
States, having earned $68,313,000 in North American (United States and Canada) rentals and $44,168,000 in foreign
rentals, for a worldwide total of $112,481,000 in gross returns.[86] It was the first film to gross over $100 million.[88] The
film was re-released in 1973,[89][90] and increased its North American rentals to $78.4 million.[91] By the end of the 1970s,
it was ranked seventh in all time North American rentals, having earned $79 million.[92] The film's re-release in 1990[90]
increased the total North American admissions to 142,415,400—the third highest number of tickets sold behind Gone withthe Wind and Star Wars—and about 283.3 million admissions worldwide.[93][94] The Sound of Music eventually earned a
total domestic gross of $163,214,076, and a total worldwide gross of $286,214,076.[95] Adjusted for inflation, the film
earned about $2.366 billion at 2014 prices—the fifth highest-grossing film of all time.[93][96]
In 1966, American Express created the first Sound of Music guided tour in Salzburg.[123] Since 1972, Panorama Tours has
been the leading Sound of Music bus tour company in the city, taking approximately 50,000 tourists a year to various film
locations in Salzburg and the surrounding region.[123] The first Sing-along Sound of Music revival screening was at the
London Lesbian and Gay Film Festival in 1999,[124] leading to a successful run at the Prince Charles Cinema which is
ongoing as of 2018.[109][125] During the screenings, audience members are often dressed as nuns and von Trapp children
and are encouraged to sing along to lyrics superimposed on the screen.[125] In July 2000, Sing-along Sound of Musicshows opened in Boston and Austin, Texas.[125] Some audience members dressed up as cast members and interacted with
the action shown on the screen.[125] The film began a successful run at the Ziegfeld Theatre in New York City in September
2000, with the opening attended by cast members Charmian Carr (Liesl), Daniel Truhitte (Rolfe), and Kym Karath
(Gretl).[126] Sing-along Sound of Music screenings have since become an international phenomenon.[127]
In 2001, the United States Library of Congress selected the film for preservation in the National Film Registry, finding it
"culturally, historically, or aesthetically significant".[82] The Academy Film Archive preserved The Sound of Music in
2003.[128]
The first American television transmission of The Sound of Music was on February 29, 1976 on ABC, which paid $15
million for a one-time only broadcast that became one of the top-rated films ever shown on television to that point.[129]
The movie was not shown again until NBC acquired the broadcast rights and telecast the film on February 11, 1979.[130]
NBC continued to air the film annually for twenty years.[129] During most of its run on NBC, the film was heavily edited to
fit a three-hour time slot—approximately 140 minutes without commercials. The thirty minutes edited out of the original
film included portions of the "Morning Hymn and Alleluia" sung by the nuns, part of the dialogue between Mother Abbess
and Maria in the abbey, part of Liesl and Rolfe's dialogue preceding "Sixteen Going on Seventeen", Liesl's verse of
"Edelweiss" sung with the Captain, the Captain and Baroness waltzing at the party, and minor dialogue cuts within
existing scenes.
The film aired in its uncut form (minus the entr'acte) on April 9, 1995, on NBC. Julie Andrews hosted the four-hour
telecast which presented the musical numbers in a letterbox format. As the film's home video availability cut into its
television ratings, NBC let their contract lapse in 2001. That year, the film was broadcast one time on the Fox network, in
its heavily edited 140-minute version. Since 2002, the film has aired on ABC, generally during Christmas week, and has
been broadcast on its sister cable network, Freeform, periodically around Easter and other holidays. Most of its more
recent runs have been the full version in a four-hour time slot, complete with the entr'acte. ABC first broadcast a high
definition version on December 28, 2008. On December 22, 2013, the annual broadcast had its highest ratings since 2007;
the increase in ratings were credited to NBC's broadcast of The Sound of Music Live!—a live television adaptation of the
original musical which aired earlier that month.[131]
In the United Kingdom, the film was first aired on BBC One on 25 December 1978 and, as of December 2016, fifteen times
since, mostly around Christmas time. As the BBC channels in Britain are not funded by advertising there was no need to
cut scenes to fit within a timeslot and the film was screened in the full 174-minute version without breaks.[132]
The film has been released on VHS, LaserDisc, and DVD numerous times. The first DVD version was released on August
29, 2000 to commemorate the 35th anniversary of the film's release.[133] The film is often included in box sets with other
Rodgers & Hammerstein film adaptations.[133] A 40th anniversary DVD, with "making of" documentaries and special
features, was released on November 15, 2005.[133] The film made its debut issue on Blu-ray Disc on November 2, 2010, for
its 45th anniversary.[133][134][135] For the Blu-ray release, the original 70 mm negatives were rescanned at 8K resolution,
then restored and remastered at 4K resolution for the transfer to Blu-ray, giving the most detailed copy of the film seen
thus far. On March 10, 2015, Fox Home Entertainment released The Sound of Music 50th Anniversary UltimateCollector's Edition—a five-disc set featuring thirteen hours of bonus features, including a new documentary, The Sound ofa City: Julie Andrews Returns to Salzburg.[133][136] A March 2015 episode of ABC's 20/20 entitled The Untold Story ofthe Sound of Music featured a preview of the documentary and interviews by Diane Sawyer.[137]
1. Twentieth Century Fox also purchased the rights to the two German films for distribution in the United States. Foxcombined the two films, Die Trapp-Familie and Die Trapp-Familie in Amerika, dubbed them in English, and releasedthem as a single 106-minute film titled The Trapp Family, which was released on April 19, 1961.[9]
2. Maria's morning run back to Nonnberg Abbey would have been about 11 miles (18 km).3. At the conclusion of filming at Schloss Leopoldskron, 20th Century Fox left behind the original gazebo as a gift to the
city. The film's later popularity, however, led many fans to trespass onto the private and secluded lakefront property.To provide fans easier access to the famous structure, the city moved it to its present location at Hellbrunn PalacePark.[64]
4.
