How many of these have you seen?

I have seen 76 of them. There are a few I have never even heard of like The Searchers.
It's an excellent list, isn't it?

This week the AFI will present a show about the Greatest Movie Songs of all time. Sounds good to me :o) What will be number one?
Just off the top of my head...

"The hills are alive with the sound of music..."

Fascinating *grin* personal tidbit...

I backpacked around Switzerland and Austria in the spring of 1978. My friend and I decided to take this trip right after a viewing of The Sound of Music. When we were in Austria...we went on the Sound of Music tour. It was hokey and fun!

You would not believe the number of people I meet who say, "I went on the Sound of Music tour too!"


Thank you for the wonderful comments yesterday. They were very special and I just love them!

Encourage one another,
Donna
