Musical films placed in a realistic setting are different from general realist films and should not be measured by the same standards. The first half is the history of family redemption, and the second half is the history of political asylum. The movie has done enough restraint and done well enough in every aspect of the genre. And it caused me to cry a few times, and thus qualified for five stars.
As an Austrian national song, "Edelweiss" represents the political position of the captain, "Maria" lively and subtly represents the character of the heroine who is not suitable for a nun, and ending with "goodbye" is part of the routine, "do -re-mi" is also lively performed.
The young postman's change of political stance tore apart his love with his eldest daughter. The monastic mother and the nuns and baroness partners have already played extremely kind roles, and the ideological promise of "running and dancing" (as reflected in the Austrian agent: business as usual) following the Nazi annexation of Austria also gave The family took advantage of the singing competition to escape. The sprawling lawns of the Alps, where the prologue and epilogue are located, are truly enviable. The heroine has no tutoring experience but is a role model for family education. However, her soft female identity setting still needs the encouragement of the monastic mother. The captain (reminiscent of Whitman and the "Dead Poets Society") was traumatized by his deceased wife, and the military-style management of the family made me think that this would be a film about an enlightened tutor against authoritarian patriarchy... I didn't expect this tutor to redeem took him. Families become families again.
