Christopher Plummer Found Julie Andrews Best In 'The Sound of Music'

Hollywood star Christopher Plummer has praised Julie Andrews saying that she delivered her best performance in classic 'The Sound of Music'. Christopher said, "It's not entirely true that I loathe 'The Sound of Music'. I think Julie Andrews, who I adore, is absolutely lovely in it.”

He added, "I think it is her most free and naked performance - her best. But when you do a film with 1,000 nuns, there's a danger it can run over into a deep abyss of mawkishness.” Plummer played the role of Captain Von Trapp.

However, he said that the film can never be his favourite. Having played many iconic roles in movies like 'Hamlet' and 'Macbeth', Christopher said that he found his role boring in 'The Sound of Music'. "I didn't like the role. I found it boring because when I was that age, in my thirties, I had already played Hamlet, Henry V, Macbeth, everything under the sun on stage and 'The Sound Of Music' was a bit of a comedown as a role," said the 88-year-old.

Plummer will next be seen in the movie 'The Man Who Invented Christmas'. The flick will also star Dan Stevens who will essay the role of plays 'A Christmas Carol' author Charles Dickens.
