Just found this review of The Sound of Music on Amazon.com. I just love the
way some of these articles I've found lately describe Christopher Plummer! :)
Enjoy!

Some people may sneer at this 1965 musical, but the truth is the film has
earned its status as a perennially watchable romantic-drama, largely on the
strength of a fun story and chemistry between stars Julie Andrews and
Christopher
Plummer. Veteran filmmaker Robert Wise (The Day the Earth Stood Still) mostly
stays out of the way of the film's appealing elements, which include a
based-on-fact tale of Austria's von Trapp family, who fled their Nazi-occupied
country
in 1938. Andrews is delightful and even fascinating as Maria, who sheds her
tomboyish ways as a novice nun to accept the mantle of adulthood, becoming
matron of the motherless von Trapp clan. Plummer is matinee-idol handsome and
gives a smart performance to boot, and the cast of young people and kids who
make
up the singing von Trapp children make a strong impression. Based on the
Rodgers and Hammerstein stage musical, the score includes such winners as
"Maria"
and the future John Coltrane hit "My Favorite Things." --Tom Keogh
