Includes 12 pages of black-and-white photos from famous films such as "Gone With the Wind, The Godfather, On the Waterfront," and "The Wizard of Oz," among others.

The Story of the Making of the 1954 Movie and Its 1983 Restoration

A Memoir of the Sound of Music

The Sound of Music is more than a classic movie. It is a cultural phenomenon. Seen by over one billion people, it won five Academy Awards, ran for almost five years in its initial release, was named the most popular film of all time by the People's Choice Awards, and became the longest running video bestseller in history. Now, one of the film's cast tells what it was like to be part of all that. Brimming with heartwarming anecdotes and funny moments, Forever Liesl celebrates the spirit of the movie and what it stands for: family love, romance, inspiration, courage, and the joy and power of music.
