The Sound of Music turns fifty today. This is one of our greatest and most enduring major motion pictures, with raindrops on roses and seven of the cutest kids.

The film featured breathtaking views of the Austrian Alps. And a stupendous score by the greatest songwriting team of Broadway's Golden Age. The sum of these parts, and so much more.

The Sound of Music premiered in New York on March 2, 1965 and went on to win five Academy Awards, including best picture. And this classic movie continues to defy all cynics.
