When was the last time you watched it? Julie Andrews was great in the film, as well as the whole cast.
Do you think the whole movie is about little children singing and dancing around? And is that what nauseates you about it?
When I was a kid, I watched the movie and enjoyed watching the children in the movie.
As I got older, I noticed other things occurring i.e. the youngest child asking questions about the "red flag with the big black spider on it".
Then there was the part where the Nazi's tell Georg Vonn Trapp that he has to join their army (with an implied "or else").
Without giving the whole plot away , this movie appears to be light on the surface, but underneath there are many good values being illustrated -honoring God (and what that really means), commitment, loyalty, standing against evil, (even if it costs you everything).
Oh, and not to mention it's based on a true story.
It really is a great movie IMHO.
Perhaps you will give it another look?
Did you really think I don’t know who the Trapp family was?
They were indeed clever people (show business types) and my hat is off to them.
Of course the subject of movie musicals and Nazis brings Cabaret to mind: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bs5bnVoZK4Q
