‘Sound of Music’ lines tell EU story
With the vote for Britain to leave the European Union, I am reminded of two scenes in the film “Sound of Music.”
Max tells the captain, “What’s going to happen is going to happen. Just make sure it doesn’t happen to you.” The captain tells him, “Max, don’t you ever say that again.”
In another scene before the captain sings “Edelweiss,” he tells the audience, “I know you share this love, I pray you never let it die.” We should always feel another country’s hurt and pray that every person in all countries never let their love for each other, God and nation never die.
