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.
