So Long, Farewell

I always took 16 going on 17 completely differently. I always saw leisl having the power in the dynamic because she's way more self away of her charm and of what Rolf wants to hear, that he would be "the strong man" showing her how society would treat her and how he would protect her. Rolf is talking about how he thinks she knows so little but in reality she has him wrapped around her finger. For example the line, "innocent as a rose", traditionally the rose is not usually a symbol of "innocent" love which shows that she's really the pursuer in the budding relationship. The moment she sings "I'll depend on you" she's on the bench and playing with his hair, Rolf is the one who is star struck looking up at her. The whole song is leisl playing into the damsel/engenue trope when she completely understands this dynamic already and is using it to her advantage.

I am amazed how lyricist Oscar Hammerstein was able to get into the minds of young teen lovers and write the words for "Sixteen Going on Seventeen". Before he died, Oscar's very last song he wrote the lyrics for was "Edelweiss".

The way it's played in the movie, actually neither of them seems very innocent and they both seem older than their stated ages, which is probably a lot of why I have disliked that scene for a long time. It's just about the dead opposite of what it pretends to be. I think Liesl is actually more innocent than Rolf about *some* things, like for instance she does not know yet that Rolf is a Nazi. But she seems to me very "grown up" for sixteen, but not necessarily grown up on the right way. She acts like she thinks she is twenty. In the rest of the movie it was more believable that she could be an innocent sixteen.

You know, I just realized, this is TWICE now that Julie Andrews has played a nanny character that helps an overly-harsh father figure to have a better bond with his children. Maria and Mary Poppins. Two of her very best roles, in my humble opinion.

The real "von Trap familee" is on KZread

I watched "TSOM" on DVD last Saturday, and I noticed, for the first time, considering how many times I've watched the movie, the shot of the butler looking out the window as the Von Trapps are pushing the car out of the driveway, and realize that your observation of the butler and Rolfe is spot on!

The whole movie is a delight and beautiful!!

I fancied the Captain even as a kid lol

I never thought "Sixteen Going on Seventeen" was so extremely romantic or anything like that, although I think I liked it better when I first saw it than I do now. I was a romantic kid and I naturally gravitated toward the couple that is actually a real couple (the ones who stay together forever instead of just dating). I was quite young when I already noticed that Liesl has her father and Maria as an example of what love should *really* be (which is fortunate since I don't know what she'd grow up to be like if her only example of "love" had been herself and Rolf). I always thought it was weird that a 17-year-old thought he could tell a 16-year-old what to do (he is after all only one year older than she is, and yes I was already old enough to count). They seemed almost grown up to me when I was a kid, but I knew that they are both about the same age. A boy telling a girl what to do isn't great either and I already knew *that*. Besides, the way he plays it, he is basically just being condescending. He also pretends that she is far more innocent than she really is, and she plays along because she knows that he thinks that is cute and attractive. I think what was different for me about the Rolf and Liesl relationship when I was much younger is that when he is in the process of betraying her family to the Nazis, I felt it more strongly as an emotional betrayal for Liesl because she did at least imagine herself in love with him or I think she did. Now I just think that he wasn't particularly a pleasant person to begin with. (But of course that's partly because I've seen it many times by now.) It's like not being as deeply affected any more by the Hans betrayal scene in the first Frozen movie because by now you already *know* that the guy is a jerk.

@julistarling8382

It's amusing, ironic and revolting all at the same time (the way Rolf treated Liesl back when he supposedly liked/loved her). I never wanted to be treated that way. When I was a kid I think it didn't bother me quite as much and I thought it was sort of okay as a scene from a movie, but I think that at *any* age I just would have preferred her to have a better boyfriend than that. Of course with him being such a dope it's at least not as sad that she has to leave him behind. Who needs a dope for a boyfriend anyway? 😉

Julie et Christopher, deux êtres merveilleux qui ont transmis leur excellence et leur charme aux personnages de Maria et Georg. Cela les rend inoubliables. Et on ne se lasse jamais de les voir et les revoir.

The Captain's excessively bossy behavior never did affect me very much because he stopped it so soon *and* because I was still so young when I already found out that the *real* Captain was never like that in real life. After the movie version of the Captain gets...reformed by Maria...which was uncannily easy for her to do if you think about it...he basically turns into someone who is much more similar to the actual Captain von Trapp. I always liked that about it, and still do. ^___^

He obviously already had a lot of good stuff about him in the first place, or he couldn't have been so easily reformed. Just like Rolf obviously already had a lot of "this guy is a jerk and a loser" about him in the first place, or he couldn't have been so easily corrupted. Good thing Liesl had her father as a better example of what a man is or should be, and her father and Maria as a better example of what love is or should be.

One of my favorite lines from The Sound of Music is when Eleanor Parker tells Christopher Plummer that somewhere out there is a young lady who will never become a nun. The look on his face is priceless.

Christopher Plummer as Captain Von Trapp was my first crush. Silver fox indeed!

Loosely based on a true story. If I remember correctly, they had two or three children together before Austria was annexed into Germany, and at least one more in the United States. Captain von Trapp was actually kind of "entitled", and they lost most of his inherited fortune before they fled. Maria is actually the one who had the children singing publicly, and the family lived on the 3rd floor of their house, while Maria rented out rooms on the first and second floors. When they did eventually come to the United States, they settled in Vermont, and through hard work on the part of Maria and the children (I don't think all of them left Austria with the family, as they were already grown), and due to Maria's strong mind for business, they were able to buy and run a small resort in Vermont. I don't know if Maria and Georg's descendants still own it. If I heard correctly, Maria eventually (after Georg's death, and the children were all grown) entered a convent in Vermont. She was rather old by this time. The original children didn't like singing, and most of them abandoned this. However, there are a few of Maria's great grandchildren who do sing publicly. Somewhere on KZread, there are videos of them.

Max is self serving but he was very honest about it. He didn’t hide it, but he still cared bout his family. Under all the greed.

I was only 5 years old when I saw this movie, but I had a crush on both Angela Cartwright and Charmian Carr. I was well aware of the romance in 16 going on 17. I wonder if they had an 'in joke' of Rolf being surprised by Liesl's romantic moves, maybe because she was really 21. I was well aware of the nazies. I think you underestimate children.

As a child, I thought Captain Trapp felt admiration that Rolfe was not a killer. However, when I became a US Marine and an adult, I understood what really happened. Captain Trapp had complete contempt for him. The war hero knew Rolfe was just a coward, and probably always knew.

That's an interesting interpretation. I have a different one. If Captain Von Trapp really had been expressing contempt for Rolf and Rolf's supposed cowardice at that moment, that would have been very, very stupid of the Captain: The lives of his entire family were at severe risk, and the Captain was counting on Rolf NOT to raise the alarm. I think that what happened instead, was a mis-communication / misunderstanding. When Von Trapp tells Rolf, "You'll NEVER be one of them," his intended meaning is: "You'll never be as evil, as morally depraved, as the Nazis; You're a good person, misguided as the result of being in an evil organization." In other words, The Captain wants to see Rolf exactly the way we the viewers did at the start of the film: a naive 17-year-old kid, confused about the world, not really bad, but vulnerable to propaganda campaigns and persuasion techniques that all people are vulnerable to (and which the Nazis used). But, that's not the message that Rolf hears. It's not, "You'll never be as evil as the Nazis you're dressed up as," but rather, "You're not man enough, disciplined enough, brave or dedicated enough to be a proper Nazi" (and I think that these are traits that are linked with the Nazis in Rolf's mind. So, Captain Von Trapp was (in his mind) paying Rolf a compliment; Rolf took it as a wild insult. The Captain was hoping that Rolf would interpret the remarks the way he (the Captain) meant them, and that he (Rolf) would have continued to remain silent and to let the Von Trapp family sneak away quietly.

Ralph was as much an impressionable child as the Von Trap children, caught up in a political and nationalistic struggle that he could not control. If u r going to give the kids the benefits of the doubt, u must give it to Ralph as well.

What always bothered me was the length of Julie Andrew's hair: It looks as though she had recently been a victim of diphtheria. That it was due to her hair having been cut short to fit under a nun's wimple is not clear from the onset.

@@dannyjorde2677 What I am saying is that it doesn't fit into the historical setting without an explanation - like a bouffant hairdo in a 1960s cowboy movie. In the early 1930s, young women in conservative upper class communities in Europe (And what is more conservative than a household full of Austrian nobility?) either had long hair they rolled or otherwise pinned up, had been sick with an illness that let it fall out or become so knotted that it had to be cut off or they were rebellious and wanted to look super cool - none of which is offered as an explanation possibility here. The cloister/wimple factor never occurred to me as a rather casual viewer, who saw the film only twice and somehow missed that, so the short hair bothered me as an anachronism. That is all.

I am in my 50s and have never seen TSOM. However, I do like the song, Do Re Mi.

I thought the Baroness Elsa was less and less mature the older I got. She can't even be bothered to *pretend* to want to be the mother of the children of the man she thinks she is marrying? How mature of her. Max is *like* a friendly uncle in some ways, but to think that was *all* he was like, you would have to be Gretl's age. Just noticing.

Personally I grew up not thinking she was a threat at all. It wasn't until later on I grasped that the children were not content with her marrying the Captain, all because they preferred Maria and I didn't even pick up on her manipulation until much later on and even then I thought that that was a problem with Maria's insecurity about wanting to be a nun, not her jealousy directly as she was actively telling Maria that the Captain was in love with her but she was obviously being subtle about it because she wanted the Captain. But as for the kids, she probably didn't hate or even dislike them as much as they disliked her although she does mention shipping them over to boarding school in Switzerland, but not necessarily to be rid of them but to give them a higher education and protect her upper-classness which might be snobby and domineering but she never hated nor despised the children as it was evident when she first met them she adored their singing taught by Maria. So she's really a layered character, possibly the most in the movie.

What amazes me is how obviously your opinion of this classic has been tainted by your personal politics.

I remember I was a little bit confused doing the 16 going on 17 number. I thought that really cared for Liesel. When Rolf became part of the Nazi party I was kind of confused. I was thinking that how could he turn on the family of the girl he supposedly loved. Now as an adult I realize that Rolf did not have much of a choice but to join with those people.

An interesting perspective. Whilst the sinister undertones were undoubtedly there, they were somewhat glossed over. For me a more pertinent portayal of the ominous rise of Nazism in 1930's Germany is in the Bob Fosse musical "Cabaret", with Liza Minelli in the iconic role of nightclub singer Sally Bowles..!

It was definitely glossed over. In fact the broadway version cut a song out. "No way to Stop it". That song is about how not just Max but also Baroness Schrader were very much in favor of self preservation in the nazi takeover. They were very much glossed over in the movie. That is why i have a much deeper appreciation for the movie as an adult. Which is saying something because as a kid it was still my favorite move.

The character of Captain Von Trapp was so different from reality that his children were upset about it. He was a warm gentle man. It was Maria who was a tempestuous character very different from the sweet kind personality in the film. It was her drive and dynamism which kept the singers going even when they wanted to stop. Her impulsiveness and ignorance about finance meant that the family never benefited from the various stage and screen versions of their story

God forbid Hollywood actually show anyone actually accomplishing their goals by getting on a train...

Sorry but I agree wae max

The things I notice now that I didn't then. The Captain's military medals and what kinds are they (and I think you can find pictures of them on Wikipedia). He was a Navy captain for Austria in World War I...means he was not on our side then (those of us that are with the Allies). But at least he wasn't on the side of the Nazis (thank God).

I disagree, you need to view id from the people in the 20s, even 60s, men are supposed to take care of women as a gentleman, not from view of your modern world feminism.

I wonder if Queen Sophie Charlotte Von Streliz would have fit in yet?

you left out how humdrum everybody's costumes were except Eleanor Parker's - especially that red raw silk suit.

I knew the more modern social element would come into play with these clips and channel comments 🙄 it was over 50 years ago. Let it go.

I tire of people judging history by today's standards. Practices of the past should be accepted as the accepted thoughts of the time, whether that be child rearing or gender roles. Quite frankly, we need more of that today. Today's children are undisciplined and down right unpleasant to be around. And then for our feminist society...well...if it is so great, why are there so many aging spinsters crying on social media that they are lonely and wish they had kids 5-15 years after child bearing is next to impossible? No. Many of our attempts at "progress" in these areas have been an abysmal failure.

What!!😱 I had no idea that Rolfe was a Nazi in the movie,I just thought he moved on or something (for reference I'm fifteen)😓

I have a different interpretation than the creators of this video do, of Rolf and of how this video's creators, frame him. This video's creators frame it as, "Rolf was always a bad guy, and it just takes us a while to discover that." Not at all. In reality, the film wants us to get to know Rolf as a human •FIRST• -- a human with good aspirations, lusts, dreams and desires, just like us. Rolf uses the code-phrase 'developments' with the family butler, which sophisticated viewers understand as referencing the rise of the Nazis in Austria. Then, Rolf makes the 'Hitler' salute when he's momentarily flustered by the Captain. Is Rolf evil at that moment, or is he merely a typical naive 17-year-old kid, vulnerable to pop culture trends, political manipulation, propaganda and persuasion techniques - just like we are, today? Then, later, when we see that Rolf has joined the Nazi troops - that puts a human face onto one of the members of the goose-stepping army. That kid ••had been•• a nice guy. Someone who may or may not have been the right match for Leisel - but we've been sympathetic towards him. But, the Nazi ideology has changed him, as it was designed to. He's now preoccupied "with more important matters" (presumably the military conquest of Europe and the 'inferior' nations, exterminating Jews, and purifying the Aryan society and bloodline.) Rolf's evolution during the film, from friendly, sympathetic kid, to indoctrinated Nazi soldier, puts a face on Nazi corruption; It's •supposed to• scare and to horrify us, by making us aware that it so easily could have ensnared us, too.

I dond't undertand your point. Why looking at "hidden situations" when we all have enjoyed this film so much? Your analyse seem a bit anachronic.
