1938. Salzbourg. Maria est une jeune femme fantasque qui étudie pour devenir nonne. Son amour de la musique et des montagnes, son enthousiasme, son imagination et son manque de discipline inquiètent les sœurs de l'abbaye qui lui proposent de devenir la gouvernante du capitaine Georg von Trapp, un veuf, qui élève ses sept enfants de façon très stricte. Au début, ils traitent Maria comme les précédentes, en lui jouant des tours pour attirer l'attention de leur père. Comme elle leur répond avec gentillesse et patience, elle parvient petit à petit à gagner leur confiance et leur respect. (Lost Films)

A very sweet musical that even after all these years hasn’t lost its simple charm and the optimistic mood that radiates from it. But why is the magic so simple? How many other movies in the genre deliver exclusively static dance numbers, hard-to-remember melodies and sentimental humour, and yet make you keep your eyes on them for two and a half hours? It is not great filmmaking, but it is extremely honest filmmaking, visually disarming and supported by a pair of wonderful actors, whose characters we become firmly attached to, and whose "dark" ending make us keep our fingers crossed. The premise may have called for the script not to overflow with so much comfort and one-dimensional family message, but hand on heart, other than with just such humour and constant level of optimism, this legend simply could not work so well and lastingly.

I admit, I could imagine it being an hour shorter and still just as positive and beautiful, and also without the Nazis. But even with them, it's good, although I was afraid it might slip into something overly sentimental. Fortunately, that didn't happen, and the entire central family is captivating both in acting and singing.
