Sound of Music dvd

[cupcakesbakingonanopenfire]

Heard Julie Andrews on radio earlier doing plug for new dvd where you can sing along. I believe it is this one. Does anyone know if the 'sing along' element is an added extra or is it impossible to watch the film normally. Would I be better off buying this special edition ?
TIA

anyone?

well... my mum is a SoM addict.. it's her fave film and she doesn't like the 2 disc one, because it has an intermission in it! lol

I think the sing-along bit is just an extra... but might be worth checking it out in a shop to make sure? it'll proba ly say on the back

noooooooooo dont do it my wee sis used to watch it constantly and knew it word for word at 2 years old

I have the original soundtrack album- given to me as a gift from my nan many years ago, its actually from when the film was first released.

ebay!!!.....

god, I don't want an intermission. Right, will probably get sing along single disc.
Thanks

I can't believe I asked my dp for this for Xmas, oh the shame

I know. me too. I heard about it on the radio and found myself saying, 'oh go on then, I'll have one of those, please.'

top film. You won't need the singalong version as dear Julie's voice is as clear as a bell so you'll pick up the words very quickly!

ps if you are anywhere near London, the Prince Charles cinema in Leicester Square used to do a sing along version - very funny night out as people go in fancy dress. There were at least 3 "hills-which-were-alive" when I went, and a whole troop in green brocade (lost count of the number of nuns)...there's a website somewhere, plus you could drink in the cinema

crumpet, you're right. The lyrics are incredibly easy to remember. I know them but I thought it might be fun for the children - and for my less cultured friends.
