| "The Sound of Music" - Worldwide Success |
|
|
 |
|
| Even to this day, "The Sound of Music" is one of the most shown movies in history (standing right alongside "Gone with the Wind" and "Terminator"). And its popular song, "Edelweiss", was the most sold single in musical history after Bing Crosby's "White Christmas". |
|
|
| A worldwide movie success, from Australia to Zimbabwe |
|
|
| Three of every four American tourists cite "The Sound of Music" as the main reason for their trip to Austria. Korean youngsters learn songs from the movie in their English classes, Dutch magazines put on trips for their readers to visit the movie's major shooting venues, while TV stations from Australia to Zimbabwe regularly broadcast the movie to this very day at either Christmas, Easter or New Year's. |
