The Sound of Music (5/5) Movie CLIP - So Long, Farewell (1965) HD

BUY THE MOVIE:

CLIP DESCRIPTION:
The Von Trapp children say goodnight at a party by singing "So Long, Farewell."

FILM DESCRIPTION:
One of the most popular movie musicals of all time, The Sound of Music is based on the true story of the Trapp Family Singers. Julie Andrews stars as Maria, a young nun in an Austrian convent who regularly misses her morning prayers because she enjoys going to the hills to sing the title song. Deciding that Maria needs to learn something about the real world before she can take her vows, the Mother Superior (Peggy Wood) sends her off to be governess for the children of the widowed Captain Von Trapp (Christopher Plummer). Arriving at the Trapp home, Maria discovers that her new boss is cold and aloof, and his seven children virtual automatons-at least, whenever the Captain is around. Otherwise, the kids are holy terrors, as evidenced by the fact that Maria is the latest in a long line of governesses. But Maria soon ingratiates herself with the children, especially oldest daughter Liesl (Charmian Carr), who is in love with teenaged messenger boy Rolf. As Maria herself begins to fall in love with the Captain, she rushes back to the Abbey so as not to complicate his impending marriage to a glamorous baroness (Eleanor Parker). But the children insist that Maria return, the Baroness steps out of the picture, and Maria and the Captain confirm their love in the song "Something Good." Unhappily, they return home from their honeymoon shortly after the Nazis march into Austria. Already, swastikas have been hung on the Von Trapp ancestral home, and Liesl's boyfriend Rolf has been indoctrinated in the "glories" of the Third Reich. The biggest blow occurs when Von Trapp is called back to active duty in the service of the Fuhrer. The Captain wants nothing to do with Nazism, and he begins making plans to take himself and his family out of Austria.

0:50 has always been my favorite part. I like his quirky smile while he effortlessly belts out a note that sounds like the majestic melodies of a rainbow unicorn.

[Wendytherock]

I see why this is my mother's favorite film.

[TheHouseOffice]

Aw, they cut out when all the guests sang back the last "Good bye". Always gave me chills.

[crimsonkatharine]

1:00-1:07 is me on the last day of school.

Brigitta was always my favorite. So sassy. I remember first watching the film and counting the children as they came down the stairs and openly stating that there were 6 not 7. Then bam! In comes Brigitta reading a book, not even caring about what her father would do.

After that my Nana nicknames me Brigitta because 1) I was seriously observant as a 5 year old and 2) I loved reading.

Absolutely adore Angela Cartwright.

1:00-1:06 Brigitta threw shade before it became trendy

R.I.P. Heather Menzies (Louisa Von Trapp} who passed away on Christmas Eve 2017. May God rest your soul.

[annapg.]

I love this movie so much. I adore how kind Liesl is to her younger siblings, especially the little ones, like Gretl.

[ryanhogue]

I would like, to taste, my first champagne, Yes? NEINE!

[DiamondgirlPony]

Liesel- I like to stay and taste my first champagne. Yes?
Captain Von Trapp - No
Me - Lol nice try.

[teamhaas]

My daughter played Liesl in this show 3 years ago and it was amazing. This musical is such a classic. I've loved it since I was 4 years old!

[vickyswindoll]

I'm 61 years old and I still love and watch this movie every year during the Christmas holidays! My favorite as a child.

[SincerelyyoursloveMaria]

This was my mothers dream she had 6 daughters but unfortunately none of us could sing

[elliemcelroyy]

It's sad the way no ones actually appreciating the music. I'm dying over the cuteness of Gretal, and simply this musical. I even like the captain. Maria, Gretal and Curt are my favourites! And I think half the people who had watched this video have never seen this musical.Sound of music, is just a beautiful musical.

[catherineacts]

I just loved it especially when one of the girl’s asked if she could have her very first champagne- seriously I just crack up at that and also that’s my favourite part of the song.

[KingSupaBoii]

0:50 he was always my fav his voice is so pure, and he has a great smile 😄😃🥰 this movie was my childhood favorite!!!

[madamossy]

I can watch this film over and over not getting tired of watching it.

[michaellurch]

Started crying at the end
My youngest cousin is the spitting image of the youngest daughters, and she lives this song. She sings it so well and I love her so nuch

[JoeP]

My older brother had me watch this movie when I was a child. Glad he did. Such a beautiful movie filled with emotion and music. It truly touched me.

[blitzwaffe]

I remember seeing this movie as a kid and thought it was amusing. Then it scared me with the part with the Nazis. The songs to this day are stuck in my head. I must sadly say that this song is fitting as a farewell to Charmian Carr. This year is a such a sad year. First David Bowie, Alan Rickman, then Gene Wilder, and now Charmian Carr. Why must parting be such sweet sorrow?

[seriyooow]

I'm 19 years old and I remembered this was my favorite childhood movie when I was about 3-4, couldn't remember about how young i was, but i still remembered most of my favorite scenes! Just revisited it now after 15+ years and wow that brings back memories.
