There is something about The Sound of Music, that timeless musical drama that always manages to fill your heart with sheer goodies. A movie so beautiful it still puts us to shame, if we consider the kind of musicals that have been releasing lately. Nothing matches the level of emotions this movie was so profusely …
As we slip into a new era, it is high time we delve into the preceding past that was successful in helming some brilliant movies. 2015 was a happening year for every movie buff.
