5. Speaking of family shows..

The Sunday night before xmas ABC ran "The Sound of Music".

I love Rodgers & Hammerstein, generally, but I had not seen the movie in a long time. I had forgotten how GOOD it is!! The story is fictional, but everyone speaks clearly, Julie Andrews is the best singer I think i've ever heard (And I studied opera singing for two years), as well as beautiful. No explosions, no violence, esp. against women.

I was ten years old when the movie came out. I probably saw it in Cinerama or whatever they called the widescreen back then. And I think I saw it once on TV before this.

I now have a 42 inch flat screen. I think a lot of the network shows in our boonie stations are not transmitted in Hi-Def.This movie was not hi-def, but it was still good.
