The biggest hit of the 1960s, The Sound of Music is basically Jane Eyre crossed with Snow White: Julie Andrews is the novice nun Maria sent to mind seven little von Trapps and falling in love with their forbidding father, widower Captain von Trapp (Christopher Plummer). The Evil Queen, in this case, would be (an unseen) Adolf Hitler, because we are in Austria, 1938. The Rogers and Hammerstein tunes include Maria, Do-Re-Mi, Climb Every Mountain, Edelweiss and My Favourite Things.
