The music, dancing, scenery, the overall feeling of this film holds so many memories for me. It has been a family tradition for my family to watch this film whenever Christmas season starts. The love for this film all started with my grandmother. She absolutely adored the film and music. When my mother was younger she and her two sisters sang the song "Sister's, Sister's" at a talent show that my grandmother had entered them in. At Christmas two years ago they recreated the moment in our family living room for the whole family to see, it was just a lovely and joyful moment.
Like I said before it has become a tradition to watch the film whenever the Christmas season begins. I can remember the first time I saw it. We were at my grandparents house and we all gathering in front of the television with drinks and snacks and watched it together. I fell in love with the film at that moment. I think that because my grandmother is no longer with me it holds an even stronger feeling. Like I said with The Sound of Music I feel her presence in every scene of the film. I have real comfort in the fact that when I put a film on that she loved I sense the spirit and love that she had for it. It makes it feel like she still lives on in them.
