Same... I could watch Christopher Plummer any time of year. He's so devastatingly handsome in that movie. Especially the Laendler scene... sigh.

OMG. That scenic is one of the best ever.

I could not get enough as a kid, I'd tune in when it was announced but now I never play it.

I remember it playing every Easter

I always thought of it as a Christmas movie.

I honestly didn't think of this as a seasonal movie as a kid.

I remember that too. I think they played it around Easter through some time in the late 90s honestly. That and the Ten Commandments movie from the 50s.

I think My Favorite Things got “turned into” a Christmas song at some point because she names a lot of “things” in the song and there are some references to winter and presents. It seems like it’s been a vaguely Christmassy song for awhile, but I definitely associate it more with the movie than as a Christmas song! But maybe if you’ve never seen The Sound of Music or know much about musicals/Broadway you think of it as a Christmas song.

Growing up in the 80s, I remember Sound of Music always being aired on television (NBC?) around Easter time. It was only when I became an adult that I learned it's viewed as a Christmas movie and "Favorite Things" is a Christmas song.

Does anyone else not remember it being aired around Christmas time and aired around Easter instead? Does anyone else not remember "Favorite Things" being played as a Christmas song in the 80s?
