I want to attend a party where they dance the Laendler

I want to wear the Baroness' gown with the one-shoulder detail and the tightly fitted bodice.

And the opera-length gloves. Gown in ivory/silver, gloves in white.

And then I want to say cunty things to a nun.

I agree that the dance would be fun and I love the music. However, I'd rather go to a party where this German dance is done and all the men are dressed this way. Less formal.

Looks like a prelude to bukkake, R2

I want to present hole to Christopher Plummer when he looked like that.

There are still folk dance groups in the US, believe it or not, but they tend to be full of women.

[quote]but they tend to be full of women.

Shocking!

Jawohl

R5, that is not true. I am very involved with German heritage groups and there are plenty of men. Most of then have at least one, if not more German Festivals a year. Usually, the are open to the public.

This is R2.

R1, if you get anywhere near that outfit I swear I'll claw your eyes out.

How many dresses does a governess need?

This thread is too Teutonic.

The zombies in “Attack of the Liederhosen Zombies” are entranced by music, rendering them harmless for as long as the music is playing. In one scene, the main couple make their way back to the ski chalet, only to find it infested with zombies, but they are all swaying to the music, which happens to be a Laendler song. So they decide to dance among the zombies, recreating Maria and Georg’s dance in TSOM. You can see it briefly in the trailer (although the trailer music is not the same as in the movie). Kind of a funny scene.

More of the Baroness' dress, by the undersung costume designer for SOM, Dorothy Jenkins.

.... and a fangurl...

another....

She's a GIF.

Dorothy Jeakins was even more undersung r14.

Hee.

Yes, thank you for the correctitude, R14.

Enjoy some bedroom curtain couture.

OP - make sure you wear your formal caftan and the really dangly earrings.

OP would need oxygen after that dance

OP to gain admittance to that type of event you should be attired in your formal caftan made of jacquard curtains, and your earrings in the shape of a goatherd with the cubic zirconia lederhosen

I went to a Sound of Music sing-along at the Hollywood Bowl where they show the film on large screens, accompanied by the orchestra and with the song lyrics captioned with a bouncing ball. Before the film started, they had a costume contest where audience members were brought onstage to show off costumes inspired by the movie.

Someone was dressed like Julie Andrews’ opening title sequence with a small helicopter on a straightened wire coat hanger extending over her head to represent the helicopter shots of the opening titles. My favorite, though, were nuns in playclothes, nun habits made of the same green-and-white drapery material as the children’s playclothes.

Love you bitches, and I love this thread.

Gayorg

Looks kind of like a Euro square dance.

I’ve asked before and have never gotten a satisfactory answer. Eleanor Parker brilliantly played a major character in the film yet never participated in any of the many cast reunions over the years. For Christ sake even Plummer relented and realized he was a part of cinema history with this movie. But even more egregious is that Parker’s name was never even mentioned by any of the cast ever, as if she never was in the damn film with them at all. Was she as hated by them as the Baroness was in the film? Is that the reason? It is just bizarre.

r27 Her pussy stank.

Well, R27, she DID want to send all of the children to boarding school, so why would they invite her to a reunion?

Watching Julie Andrews dance reminded me of one of these.

Eleanor Parker was only 42 or 43 when she made TSOM. She appeared in over 40 films before that.

I don't think she's appreciated nearly enough. I declare this a Celebrate the Glamor of Eleanor Parker thread.

Here's Alexis, in middle age.

Are we going to pretend r4 didn't make a massive pedo comment?

When did pedophilia become such a rage on this fucking forum?

How is that a pedo comment, you hysterical queen?

"How the fuck am I a pedo??", asks Mr. B Singer, as he vigorously pounds a 13-year-old.
