- The Sound of Music (1965) is regarded as a classic in American cinematic history. For decades the film has shaped US perceptions of Austria. Despite this success, the film has remained relatively unknown in the Central European country... outside of the Sound of Music tour buses which can frequently be found carrying tourists around Salzburg.
In this video, Professor Helga Embacher from the Paris Lodron University of Salzburg discusses some of the film's history in Austria, and the real-life Maria Kutschera who inspired the film's whimsical, aspiring nun, Maria played by Julie Andrews.

No problems people learn everything themselves
She was not a Nun....she was a Postulant hoping to become a Nun at Nonnberg Abbey
Yes, I read that in her autobiography. If you read it, you would realize that only one parent of the Von Trapp children was half Austrian. Georg von Trapp was an ethnic German, and a Lutheran. Agathe Whitehead's parents were respectively English and Protestant and her mother was Austrian and Catholic. Georg became Catholic after his wife died and went to mass with his children. Maria Kutschera was Austrian and an unbeliever until she was in university. She became a devout Catholic after hearing a sermon. She attended the mass wanting to hear the music for holy week. The only child that had blond hair and blue eyes was Johannes, the youngest. Most of the rest had brown hair and eyes, like their father did, although several of them had green eyes. They were not the blond Germanic actors as portrayed. I posted this because I thought the truth was far more interesting than what the stage play and movie showed. Although, the German version "Die Trapp Familie" was more accurate.
Right. She was more an apprentice to the nuns
❤ her postulant, educator and not a nun
Wait! Von Trapp was a Croatian (yes, in the empire) who was awarded an estate in Salzburg for having pioneered certain aspects of submarines/submarine warfare? And he was not a music-less martinet, but respected for his kindness and piety? Blasphemy!
Well in the beginning she was a Postulant to become a nun but that wasn't meant to be.
Wait? Maria was never a nun? Weird!
Maria was what is called a postulant or a candidate for admission to the Benedictine Order and Julie Andrews was wearing the appropriate garb in the movie for that title. Maria, while as a candidate, also taught at the abbey school. This womon in the video is misinformed.
She was close to the point of taking her final vows. The books Maria wrote tell her actual biography
The movie makers chanĝed several things, as they often do! The actal stories of the Trapp family are better than the movie. Read Maria Von Trapp's books!!
The Hollywood film was a copy of the German film from 1958, that ends with the family arriving in America. That Maria us more beautiful than Julie Andrews and she sings better. But then , all the distributors worldwide are American, so people from Europe are only allowed to watch American films and national films. French and italian cinema used to be very admired before.
She was a nun. My Australian grandmother knew her. Why the lies?
She was a postulant at the time she was sent to be a tutor for daughter Maria Franziska, who missed a year of school due to scarlet fever. I think you meant 'Austrian' or 'Österreicherin' (Austrian, fem.)
