Introduction

22-year-old Maria is a volunteer nun in a Salzburg monastery. However, her lively and nature-loving character always gets her into trouble in the monastery. Abbess in the nunnery felt that her lively character was not suitable for a monk's life, so when she received a request from Colonel von Trapp's family for care, she decided to let Maria go and thereby let her Discover your true purpose in life.

Maria arrived at von Trapp's house and found that he was a widower with seven children. His long-term naval life and the grief of his deceased wife made him treat his children as strictly as he disciplined soldiers. Soon, Maria understood the reason why the previous caregivers left. It turned out that the children could not get the care of their father and always used to tease the caregivers to attract their father's attention.

The colonel asked Maria to be as strict as him, but Maria did not obey. Instead, she won the friendship of the children with her natural gentleness and kindness. While the colonel was away, she used curtains to make game costumes for each child, took them to the market, had a picnic in the beautiful Alps, and taught them to sing. The children's original restraint and melancholy were gradually replaced by music and laughter.

Soon the colonel came home and brought back Uncle Mike, whom the children liked, and the colonel's girlfriend, the Baroness, whom the children did not like very much. The colonel was very dissatisfied with Maria's approach, but he was very moved when he heard the children singing for the Baroness, because Maria brought back the music that had been no longer in the family since his wife died. Maria also prepared a puppet show with the children, and the colonel was attracted by Maria's enthusiasm that could be contagious to others.

A few days later, the colonel and the baroness held a grand ball together, in which the children also sang. During the dance, Maria demonstrated the Austrian folk dance "Laendler" to the children. Unexpectedly, the colonel came over and danced with Maria. At the end of the dance, they looked at each other and the love between them The meaning is clear at a glance. All this was seen by the Baroness, and that night, she persuaded Maria to return to the monastery. Maria was afraid that her feelings for the colonel would go beyond the limit, so she left quietly.

After Maria left, the Baroness tried her best to please the children, but to no avail. When the children learned that the colonel was going to marry the Baroness, they were even more sad. They went to the convent to look for Maria but could not see her. Maria confessed her love for the colonel and her confusion about life to Dean Abys. Dean Abys told her that she must have the courage to find her true love even if she climbs every mountain in the world. So Maria returned to von Trapp's house. After Maria came back, the Baroness found that she could no longer restore the relationship between Maria and the colonel. She took the initiative to withdraw from the engagement. The colonel and Maria talked to each other, and soon they got married.

Unfortunately, their lives did not end happily ever after. While they were still on their honeymoon, the German Nazis occupied Austria. When they rushed back to Salzburg, they found Nazi flags everywhere. While they were away, Uncle Mike, who took care of the children, registered them for the Salzburg Festival. As soon as the colonel returned home, he received a telegram from the Nazis asking him to report to the Nazi Navy immediately. The colonel, who always hated the Nazis, decided to lead his family to leave Austria. When they left the villa at night, they were stopped by the Nazis who had been hiding outside the door to watch them. So the colonel explained that they left to participate in the Hillsborough Festival performance and took out the program list as evidence. Accompanied by the Nazis, they arrived at the venue and performed songs prepared by the children. At this time, the colonel and Maria sang "Snow Melt Flowers". The song contained a deep love for their motherland, Austria. Regardless of the Nazi guards holding guns next to them, the audience also sang "Snow Melt Flowers" with the colonel.

After the performance, the colonel and his family fled the performance site while the awards were being given. The Nazis chased them all the way to the monastery. With the help of the nuns, the colonel and his family hid behind the tombstones to avoid the Nazis. Tracked, they then crossed the Alps and left Austria.

The movie <> is adapted from a true story.

Baron Trapp was born on April 4, 1880, in Zara, which was still part of the Austro-Hungarian Empire. His father was a naval captain, and he also wanted to devote himself to the navy, so he attended the Royal Naval College. While still a young Navy captain, he was assigned to command the U6 submarine. During World War I, a French submarine was sunk by Trapp's submarine. In 1918, King Joseph I promoted him to Lieutenant Commander. After the war, Austria lost its coastline and no longer needed a navy. Not only did Colonel Trapp lose his position, he also lost his wife in 1924, leaving him with seven children to care for.

Maria was born on January 25, 1905. Her mother died when she was about two years old, and her cousin became her foster mother, and they lived in a small house on the outskirts of Vienna. She received a rigorous education. After three years of high school, she entered the National Normal College for four years. Maria was originally a socialist and an atheist, but during college, a famous priest began to preach to her, which changed Maria's life and beliefs. Maria joined the Sisters' Mountain Convent in Salzburg and became a nun. The convent decided to let Maria leave for a year and work as a governess in the house of Baron Trapp to take care of one of his daughters who suffered from rheumatic fever.

A year later, the children asked their father to try to keep Maria, and they even suggested that he should marry her. I don't know if she likes me! replied the baron. So the children asked Maria themselves. Because Maria said, yes, I like him. They are engaged. She never returned to the convent as a nun and married the baron on November 26, 1927. The Trapp family has two more daughters.

In 1935, Father Vaznet entered their lives. He made music a passion for their family. Their natural, fresh voices and pure singing enabled them to win first place in the chorus competition at the 1935 Salzburg Music and Drama Festival. They lost all their money during the Great Depression and were invited to tour Europe.

In 1938, when Hitler invaded Austria, Trapp would rather lose his material possessions than retain his dignity. They left their villa and all their possessions on the outskirts of Salzburg and headed to the United States.

In September 1938, they arrived in New York. On the way, the 10th child was born.

Father Vaznet also traveled to the United States with them. Under his guidance, singing became their profession, and the Trapp Family Chorus gradually became famous. After World War II, the Trapp family established a musical charity organization: the Trapp Family Austrian Relief Society, which sent countless food and clothing to their native Austria.

In 1941, Trapp bought a large farm in a rural area of ??Fairmont, which was similar to the scenery they missed in Salzburg, Austria. They named their house "A Heart of Loyalty."

On May 30, 1947, Trapp died and was buried in the family cemetery in the backyard of the house. When they ended their singing career of more than 20 years and more than 30 countries, they converted their large Austrian-style wooden house into an inn. Unfortunately, it was destroyed by fire in December 1980. They immediately decided to rebuild. The design of the Trapp family's new cabin is modern but still retains the flavor of the past. Maria died on March 28, 1987 and was buried next to her husband in the cemetery.

The film became the highest-grossing musical in film history that year. This classic masterpiece won the 38th Oscar for Best Picture, Best Director, Best Music, Best Sound, Five awards for best film editing. It has been translated into more than 30 languages ??and shown in various countries around the world. The beautiful music in the film is still widely sung today. The translation of the film is very different in different places: in Hong Kong, China, it is translated as "The Music Is Pleasant Everywhere"; in Taiwan, it is translated as "Truth, Goodness and Beauty"; in Portugal, it is "Music in the Heart"; in Spain, it is translated as "Laughter". "With Tears"; the translation in Argentina is "Newcomers Full of Resistance"; in Germany, its name is "My Song, My Dream"... The translations are different, but the music is equally beautiful, which shows how much people love it.
