The Kids have reunited once before with Julie Andrews (byt Christopher Plummer was not there )

I will have to brake my “never watch Oprah” rule for this one!

[Leo Farnsworth]

Unfortunately the Von Trapp family sold their ranch here (MT) to Ted Turner - this was about 15 years ago.

Imagine fleeing the Nazis only to sell your property to a devout socialist.

My best to them, though!

Looking at the above pictures...

I have to say, Julie Andrews looks FANTASTIC for her age. She even looks as young as some of her “children”.

I wonder if she had anything medically cosmetic done...

If not, she is the epitome of aging gracefully.

Plummer, an award-winning Shakespearean stage actor, has sought in the past to distance himself from the movie and declined to attend a cast reunion for 40th anniversary of the DVD release in 2005.

But the actor told Reuters in a February interview he had made peace with his most famous role, despite being type cast as an uptight leading man

Plummer, in perhaps the best role where he had the opportunity to put his background as an "award-winning Shakespearean stage actor" to good use:

Not me. I figure the segment will come out on youtube and I won’t have to suffer the oprah.

[Verginius Rufus]

According to The World Almanac, Christopher Plummer was born 12/13/27, so he's now 82. Can't rely on ABC even when it doesn't have anything to do with American politics.

Plummer is Canadian, like Joey Votto, but not as good a baseball player.

I adore Julie Andrews. What a tragedy that she can no longer sing. Her voice was truly amazing.

[IronJack]

I believe Christopher Plummer once referred to the movie as “The Sound of Misery.”

[Ann Archy]

I DID too....UNTIL she went TOPLESS or Naked in a movie that her husband Blake Edwards directed!! IDIOT....she had a great reputation and hasn’t had it since that fiasco.

RE: What a tragedy that she can no longer sing. Her voice was truly amazing.

---

Well, she obviously can’t sing as well as when she was young, but believe me, SHE CAN STILL OUTSING A LOT OF YOUNG FOLKS OUT THERE even at her age and even after her vocal surgery.

On July through early August 2008, She hosted Julie Andrews’ The Gift of Music, a short tour of the United States where she sang various Rodgers and Hammerstein songs and symphonised her recently published book, Simeon’s Gift. These were her first public singing performances in a dozen years, due to her failed vocal cord surgery.

She was 72 then.

[Fair Paul]

I heard it was “The Sound of Mucus.”

[I Drive Too Fast]

She was topless in this movie - S.O.B.

A scathing send-up of Hollywood, S.O.B. (the letters stand for "Standard Operational Bs")

[yarddog]

I graduated in 1965. Our class song was “Climb Every Mountain”. I can still remember most of the words. I thought Liesl was hot.

[Kirkwood]

Plummer hates interviews. Wonder how much Oprah is paying for him to show up.

[Krankor]

I always liked Angela Cartwright, although #7 looks pretty darn good.

[Ann Archy]

Thanks.....utterly ruined her by this action, and God took her fine voice away.

[Lucius Cornelius Sulla]

This is one of Plummer’s relatively few ‘straight’ hero roles, as opposed to lead character roles. These parts make actors popular, but are less interesting to portray. Von Trapp himself was a man of heroic virtue.
