"The Sound of Music" - 5-time Oscar Winner
Included in the 1965 nominees for "Best Picture" were such famous names as "Doctor Zhivago" and "Ship of Fools".
But the Oscar (along with 4 others) went to the film adaptation of Rogers & Hammerstein's musical, "The Sound of Music".
5 Oscars for the year's "Best Picture"
in 1965!
Double Oscar-winner, Robert Wise, brought the still very young Julie Andrews to Salzburg, in order to film the true story of the Von Trapp Family at the place where the original events had unfolded - this after the same material had already achieved worldwide success as a Broadway musical.
