Mark Weber Austria and Hitler How The Sound of Music Distorts History http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=58XyYI2KH50 This video gives an accuate portrayal of the relationship of Austria and Germany that is not like the one in the movie The Sound of Music. For anyone interested in actual events and the truth this is a must see video.
One of my friends took voice lessons from Maria Von Trap, in the 1950s, after the Von Trap family moved to the USA. Said Maria was kind of mean. I guess showing Maria as sweet in the movie was another historical discrepancy.
