The Sound of Music/YMMV


 * Adaptation Displacement: The movie is much more well-known than the musical.
 * The songs written exclusively for the movie, "Something Good" and "I Have Confidence", have snuck their way into subsequent stage productions.
 * Also, some stage adaptations have "My Favourite Things" as the song Maria sings to the von Trapp children during the thunderstorm just like the movie, instead of "The Lonely Goatherd".
 * Americans Hate Tingle: "The Sound of Music" isn't particularly well known by Austrians.
 * It's quite well known in Salzburg because, well, Money Dear Boy. Sound of Music Tours are quite popular.
 * Big Lipped Alligator Moment: In the movie, "The Lonely Goatherd" was demoted to a one-off puppet show scene after "My Favourite Things" became the song of choice for the thunderstorm scene.
 * Crowning Moment of Heartwarming: When Captain von Trapp joins in the children singing for the baroness, and then the big group hug that follows.
 * Designated Villain: The Baroness. In the musical, the only thing she did wrong was be rich, unliked by the children, and choosing not to cause any trouble with Germany to save their heads. She was made a little cattier in the movie, but really at worst she was just preventing Maria from moving in on her fiance.
 * Ear Worm: Several songs from the movie have made their way into pop culture, including "My Favourite Things", "Do-Re-Mi" and "Edelweiss".
 * Ensemble Darkhorse: The nuns, of course! They dismantled a car to save an Austrian family from the Nazis!
 * That Brawn Hilda who won second place.
 * Hilarious in Hindsight: Several years before being cast in The Sound of Music, Julie Andrews appeared on a Carol Burnett special where they performed in a parody of the Broadway show.
 * Newer Than They Think: "Edelweiss" is not actually an Austrian folk song, it was written for the musical. Due to its similarity to Austria's national anthem, the misconception is understandable.
 * One True Pairing: The Captain and Maria.
