The Hills Are Alive! Behind The Scenes With The Sound of Music
Endless Amounts Of Recognition
Although The Sound of Music was not the first (or last) adaptation, it is the most famous so far. It received five Academy Awards, including one for Best Director and Best Picture, but it also received two Golden Globe Awards for Best Actress and Best Motion Picture. And those are only a few of the many awards and accolades.
The 1965 musical also received the Writers Guild of America Award for Best Written American Musical and the Directors Guild of America Award for Outstanding Directorial Achievement.
