The Sound of music

1. give a short summary of this movie
In the movie, Julie Andrews plays a nun in Salzburg, Austria. She is sent from her convent to the home of Captain von Trapp, whose wife has died, to be the governess
(home teacher) of his seven children. (children's names are: Liesl,
Friedrich, Louisa, Kurt, Brigitta, Marta, and Gretl.) Mischievous at
first, von Trapp's children come to like Maria, and Maria falls in love
with their father. Maria teaches the children how to sing and have fun
because after their mother died, Captain von Trapp almost completely
erased all forms of fun. Instead of choosing baroness (wife of a noble figure) Shroeder as his new wife, he ends up marrying Maria.
After all of this takes place, the Nazis take over Austria (in the Anschluss),
and wanted Captain von Trapp to join them. But, in an attempt to
escape, the Captain and his family leave the house late one evening,
and while pushing their car out of the drive, they are caught by the
head of the army in the area. After being caught, Maria and Captain
come up with a crafty lie to save themselves. They told them that their
car broke down and that the family was supposed to be performing at the
[Salzburg Festival]. Then they get to the festival and perform. Their
dear Uncle Max helps them to escape while the army is entertained.
The family escapes to the Alps and eventually walks over them into the next country (Switzerland) to live.
