One of my studio mates told us about a friend whose dad had a fixation on Julie Andrews. When she was a little girl, if she heard the Sound of Music album playing from the bedroom, she knew her folks were Getting Down. So she really has a different reaction to hearing any of the songs than the rest of us. She is cute in it. One of my studio mates told us about a friend whose dad had a fixation on Julie Andrews.

If you have the 40th anniversary DVD, he probably says it there, too, since the 45th DVD seems to be the same thing with extra stuff about the stage play. Glorious, glorious movie, although I have to admit I've felt vaguely ashamed for thinking, "Damn, Julie Andrews is totally cute in this movie" when I rewatched it recently. Feels like something you're not supposed to think about Mary Poppins or Maria, even if it's objectively true. Perhaps the wee boys will be thinking the same thing about Amy Adams when they re-discover "Enchanted" as adults.
