The Hills Are Alive! The Sound of Music Phenomenon (BBC Documentary, 1995)
We (the fan club) were thrilled when the BBC contacted us as they were doing a documentary about The Sound of Music and its star Julie Andrews. They had initially written to the Fan Club's address - my mother's - in Sweden, but as I had just moved to London, she gave them the new address. I quickly asked some fellow fans if they wanted to participate in the documentary.
So, 5 of us (Jean, Jenny, Richard, Ernesto and myself) met up with the producer Nicholas Jones to record how the movie and Julie had affected our lives. In the documentary you will see what we all said in the interview. Much as I love the movie, for me it was always Julie that I loved - unconditionally.
