I'm checking out a gorgeous Sound of Music Companion that's coming out next month. It's by theater/film aficionado Laurence Maslon, whose books on Broadway musicals are treasure-troves of information. This looks to be the same, with hundreds of pictures from both the Mary Martin Broadway production and (mostly) from the movie. There's also a foreward by Julie Andrews. From what I've read so far, it's a pretty sumptuous feast for fans - soon to be 'one of my favorite things.' -NPR The iconic movie, released in March 1965, is also the subject of [a] fine new book, Laurence Maslon's The Sound of Music Companion . . . -Parade If you love The Sound of Music (and who doesn't?) you are in for a treat. The Sound of Music Companion is a beautiful, extensive coffee-table book full of fun facts and interesting, little-known details about the von Trapp family, the Broadway musical, and of course the beloved movie. -San Francisco Book Review From Vienna to Vermont, from Broadway to Hollywood, this gorgeous coffee table book details the real life of the Von Trapp family from the international box office bonanza. Author Laurence Masion, a professor from New York University, has gathered 170 photos as well as original lyrics, storyboards, and behind-the-scenes footage for this treasured book. -National Examiner schovat popis
