About The Trapp Family
A true story based on the popular novel by the Baroness Von Trapp of Austria. The film was made in 1956, some years before the other film based on the Trapp Family's life was released - a little movie named "The Sound of Music".
Directed by Wolfgang Liebeneiner, The Trapp Family leans on a strong ensemble — Ruth Leuwerik, Hans Holt, Maria Holst — to carry a story that balances spectacle with character.
The film landed with audiences for its craft and performances, and remains one of the most talked-about music titles of 1956.
