Feb 2021

It unexpectedly brought tears to my eyes - thinking about my childhood when the S of M came out and the perfection that the two of them were, a visit to the palace in Salzburg where it was filmed, the loss of Julie's singing voice, and on and on, a video of an interview that the two of them did (I think it was on the 50th anniversary of the film), and on and on...

May he rest in peace.
