I want Georg von Trapp inside me

Agreed. Christopher Plummer was witty, sophisticated, and just a damn good actor.

Is this the official watch thread? This looks so much better than my DVD version.

The real Georg or Christopher Plummer?

Okay, now picture the Reverend Mother played by John Gielgud.

Once you see it, you can't unsee it.

R2 It can be!

I usually only watch at Christmas but I kinda have it on in the background now.

I watched a movie with him and Ewan McGregor. He played a gay old man. It was sweet.

r3 Plummer, of course.

I mean, if the real deal had serious Austrian sizemeat I would, of course, take that under consideration.

The Laendler waltz is my favorite scene in the film

Christopher Plummer is much older but still impressive in Delores Claiborne.

He aged like wine.

Plummer was raised mostly by his grandparents, who he described in his memoirs as "extraordinarily Victorian." His great-grandfather was Sir John Abbott, the third Prime Minister of Canada, and his first cousin was the actor Nigel Bruce.

It explains why he feels so other worldly compared his contemporaries.

I think TSOM was one of the first movies I remember seeing - and even then, Papa von Trapp made me tingle down there...

[quote]and his first cousin was the actor Nigel Bruce.

I'd be interested in seeing that family tree. If his Nigel Bruce, who was 34 years old than Plummer, was his first cousin, that's a pretty large gap. Was there a second or third marriage?

I must be in the minority, but I found Christopher Plummer BORING

[quote]Take that under consideration

I will, good night

r11 Don't

R12 Nigel Bruce might have been his second cousin and not first.

R15: ?

r17 You know that we do not use that word here, even in jest.

Plummer thought he was too good for The Sound of Music. He was a well regarded Shakespearean actor and had just completed filming the acclaimed Hamlet at Elsinore Castle before arriving in Salzburg. He was a grump on set, but he NEVER said a bad word about Julie Andrews or the children.

Andrews said he was the one thing grounding the film from turning into sentimental kitsch. She is correct.

I would also von Trapp him in my hole

I want to tap that von Trapp ass, with those ass-flaps on my lap clapping against my schlapp, oozing sap.

Okay, maybe 50 years ago

His autobiography, In Spite of Myself is one of the wittiest and most amusing memoirs I have ever read. The old ham himself even narrates the audiobook. 10/10.

Plummer was also an accomplished pianist. He loved classical music and opera, particularly Tchaikovsky and Rachmaninov

They didn’t even try to make the clothes look right. The women’s dresses and hairdos were straight out of the early 60s. I

That's true of 99% of movies ever made that were set in a previous time period. The hair, makeup, and clothea always reflect the current time period to some degree.

Never realized the second oldest daughter faked out baroness throwing ball in her face.

Something long and hard Georg?

Plummer was beautiful.

Du bit nicht Frau enough to take mein Mann.

Ich bin, du bist

What is it, you cuntface?

Now think of John Gielgud saying that line

Come my dear. We are women. Let's not pretend we don't know when a man notices us.

Eleanor Parker was one of the most beautiful women to have ever live.

His daughter inherited the same elegance.

I'm watching. Haven't seen it in maybe 20 years and I'm loving it. It's so odd how Peggy Wood is in almost total darkness when she lip synchs Climb Every Mountain. It's fun watching now and knowing those kids have had a strong bond for 60 years now and, sadly, two of them have passed away. Parker was gorgeous and hilarious as Baroness CuntFace.

Difficult to watch with a nazi regime on parade through our own country.

Cant escape Nazis in our daily life or in the movies.

OP- I guess you're not a top.

I could have played HIS harmonica.

I had a crush on Plummer when I was younger

Joining the MAGA Nazi’s would be UNTHINKABLE

God, Charmian Carr is so unbelievably bad. Couldn't Wise see it when he was directing? And she was too old.

Herr Zeller was a nobody until the Anschluss just like all the nobody's who sucked up to nazi Trump.

Is Julie Andrews getting out of America before the borders are closed?

MAGA is untreated mental illness.

Rolf was adorable.

Nice Luger Rolf

This movie needs one, just one, hot young nazi soldier involved in the intrigue.

Parker looked and sounded too old. And OMG that doll wig.

R43 - Guy Woodhouse

R19, Plummer is the weak link in The Sound of Music. I thought so THEN, and I still think it after seeing the film tonight. Little did I know that his “singing” was dubbed. Richard Burton would have been sooo much better in the role.

My bad at R48 I am getting OLD. There is Rolf - Daniel Truhitte. But I just didnt register him as hot but now I see yeah he was cute.

R35 Peggy Wood was in the dark because she couldn't come in at the right moment on the lip sync.

R51 he is not the weak link. Why do you say that?

[quote] It's so odd how Peggy Wood is in almost total darkness when she lip synchs Climb Every Mountain.

For some reason during filming she was struggling with lipsynching the beginning of the song, so she started in near darkness so that struggle wasn't obvious.

R53. R55. Thank you! Makes total sense. That must have been a tense day on the set.

And who knows-by the time the film is shown again Nazi Trump may control all of television and us.
