Wow, how generous of you!
My favourite movie of all time is "The Sound of Music" - I've seen it dozens of times.
And this is one of my favourite scenes, when the Captain sings -
I came from a strict Catholic home, and when some nuns came and saw me as a baby they determined that, yes, I would become one of them. This hung over my head for a very long time! Went to Catholic school, lots of nuns were teachers. Then when it was time to go to the big city for university, my parents (dad especially) tried to get me to stay with the nuns. (Uh, no, thanks!) Women staying there were pretty much penguins-in-training! With tears and lots of cajoling to my mom, they finally let me stay in the university residence.
However, from when I first saw "The Sound of Music" as a child, I had serious delusions that I could grow up to be Maria, leave the abbey before taking my final vows, marry the handsome Captain, and have a houseful of children.
I still get transported when I see the movie, though!
My favourite song is "Edelweiss" - a mountain flower, symbol of Austria
Here's the clip from the movie of Christopher Plummer singing it:
They had another singer do his voice in the movie, matching Plummer's closely. I never knew til today that he didn't do the actual singing in the movie!

And of course I am seeing New Moon this month. Maybe not the first day, but I will definitely go to the theaters this time. I waited until Twilight came out on blu-ray before I saw it.
