to cry at The Sound Of Music?

[BitOfFun]

I must be due on

But Maria has brought music back into the house

I was crying too

Oh is it on tv now?

I'm usually crying before she's reached the top of the hill and burst into song.

I could watch it while moving mouldy things around the floor (which is called 'tidying up for beginners and the domestically impaired')

that's what it's for

...just wait for the bit where Christopher Plummer sings Edelweiss

There's something wrong with you if you don't cry (or at least get a bit damp-eyed) watching The Sound of Music.

Oh no, definitely not. I am happily singing to the Lonely Goatherd now that I have the house to myself. I will cry again later though, I love crying in films

Oh god thank you for this thread

Sobs

lol- was just about to say, the Baron hasn't sung Edelweiss yet.
It's that little break in his voice....Wahhhhhh.

IMPORTANT THING IS NOT TO WATCH IT ON iPAD

As that doesn't look even slightly like tidying up

Not that anyone is watching me

I hope?

Am watching but my voice has gone so I can't sing :( Have you ever heard Louis Armstrong singing the Lonely Goatherd?

This Christmas has been a fab tear-fest though.
ET, Dances With Wolves.....Sound of Music.

He's singing Eidelweiss now

Edelweiss :,(

ohhh singing it now...passes round the tissues

its fab - until Rolf and the Nazi's come for the family....have on subtitles and doing my best to embarrass dd2

Not with the Nazis watching though.
It's that version that kills me.

Of course Johnny Boden would never have come up with Hotchpotch had Maria not had at those curtains with her pinking shears....

my fave film ever

oh and now they are dancing and you can see they are falling in love......sigh.....

ooh, can I piss on the thread's chips a bit?

I saw the "x years on"- can't remember how many- when they got all the von Trapp kids back together again, and it was heartbreaking

I particularly remember Liesl- when the interviewer asked her "why do you think Maria fall in love with Captain von Trapp?" - she answered "money". "Why did the Captain fall in love with Maria?"- she just shrugged, and said "young"

bwwwwwwwhhhhhhaaaaaaahhhhh

tsk

fell in love

Oh, I think the Baroness is about to gracefully bow out...
