Dame Julie Andrews

It was certainly too loud on my computer, it was very annoying. I had to go back and replay the start of the interview.

A lovely lady, though.

I barely noticed the music which certainly wasn't foreground! She came over very clearly on my laptop which isn't noted for its sound quality. And thanks to Julie for answering my question.

Enjoyed the interview. Very gracious lady. The 'Muzak ' however had no connection to Julie Andrews and was a very harsh poor choice.

Lovely interview thank you. She looks great 50 years on.

I thought it was a lovely interview. I didn't really notice the music that much.

Whilst unnecessary, the background music did not hamper my enjoyment of the interview. What a lovely voice she has. Lovely interivew.

embarrassingly loud? Come off it. lovely interview, lovely lady

oh dear massuvely dissapinted i felt like i was on call hold at some call centre i think it didnt refect her worth and words very poor due to music

I gave up

Not worth listening to with that foreground music.

The music is terrible, un necessary, can hardly hear Julie Andrews, in fact it is embarrassingly loud.

Dame Julie is a lovely lady with a great voice. But does she actually know that "Edelweiss" is certainly not the Austrian National anthem?
During the filming it got a lot of Austrians confused.

That was a lovely interview which was completely ruined for me by the intrusive and unnecessary (IMO) music.

I'm so delighted to get to ask a question to you as I'm such a big fan of this film - I must have seen it countless times and loved introducing it to my children, and now my grandchildren, the eldest of which wants to be an...actress!
So, I actually wanted to ask you what you think about the acting world for young women today - do you think they have it easier now or do you think it was easier getting good roles when you were starting out? I also wondered what you thought about the complaint we often hear that there are very few good roles for older actresses (compared to older actors)?

Actually that's two questions, sorry I could ask so many more!

Thank you so much for answering

hi julie its an honour to get the chance to post a question to you, id like to know did surviving the londonblitz and all its hardship form your character with certain atrributes, your determination, sense of self and also your great dignity, thanks for the chance, cathy

Good morning, Julie, I live in Germany, and "The Sound of Music" is hardly known here (Ditto Mary Poppins). I have heard, too, that whilst busloads of Brits and Americans go to Salzburg for special SoM holidays, they are welcomed as tourists, but the locals are puzzled by the fascination with the place and the film.

Why do you think it is such a success only in the Anglophone world? Were songs translated in the foreign-language versions and sung by other people, as sometimes happens with big musical films? If so, that just goes to show how much you and your voice were responsible for the popularity and long-lived success of the film.

Congratulations on all your work and on your continuing success (PS - I loved "Despicable Me"!)

I have to admit to not having seen the film [or if I have it was a long long time ago] but I always wondered if filming Victor/Victoria was a way of getting away from your squeaky clean image? In retrospect it was a very ground breaking film in it's day and I would imagine you're very proud of it [and rightly so]. I must admit to loving Mary Poppins [although I must read the books one day which are quite dark I believe]. It's quite something to have been in sich iconic films and to be such an important part of peoples lives [my opinion being that we are shaped, to a certain extent by the films that we watch when growing up].My thanks to you .

Hello what made you want to be in the sound of music and is there Amy funny stories from behind the scenes

I read somewhere that the early reviews for The Sound of Music were not good at all - and yet the film has turned out to be one of the best-loved and most enduring classics of all time. I'm sure it will continue to be so. Does that give you a sense of satisfaction? And were you upset by those first reviews?

I believe you are a grandmother AND a great grandmother! What sort of grandmother are you? (And you look amazing - any tips?)

Dame Julie, apart from your own successful movies, which musical films would be your favourites and why?

Have you kept in touch with the other cast members over the years? Thank you for the wonderful entertainment you have given to us over the years

I love the film but I can't watch it without ending up singing the songs for days afterwards! I would love to know - which is your favourite? (Mine is the one about must have done something good but it's a close call with several others!)
