About
Like <i>South Pacific</i> a handful of years earlier, the 1965 film adaptation of <i>The Sound of Music</i> helped slake what was proving to be an inexhaustible thirst for stories about World War II—in this case, of a cheerful young governess caring for the children of an Austrian Naval officer at the dawn of the Nazi occupation. Played by Julie Andrews—who’d broken through in America in part because of her work with Richard Rodgers and Oscar Hammerstein II in 1957’s <i>Cinderella</i>—Maria von Trapp became an avatar for a kind of bootstrap optimism that resonated especially powerfully with an American audience rebounding from war into the suburban, baby-booming era in which the movie came out. .
