The Sound of Music (1965)

The Sound of Music remains entertaining to this day, bolstered by its lush composition and charming score. Based on the true story of the Von Trapp family, who escaped Nazi-ruled Austria in 1938, this film dominated the 1965 Academy Awards, winning Oscars for Best Picture, Director, Score Adaptation and Editing.
