Hi, everyone, I'm a new member and recently found this lovely quote from Julie regarding her long friendship with Christopher Plummer:
Indeed, Andrews had just won the Academy Award for best actress for the previous year’s “Mary Poppins,” and she maintains she “could not have foretold” having two such enduring classics back-to-back. “Truthfully, to work with such tasteful and very classy people as Robert Wise and all the people (on ‘The Sound of Music’) … and of course, Chris Plummer, who so sadly has left us.” “The Sound of Music” is getting its first ABC airing since Plummer’s death last February, and Andrews notes that they remained “great friends. We did a few other bits and pieces together. We went out on tour once in a sort of Christmas concert, and we did ‘On Golden Pond’ together for television, which was lovely. We always kept in touch one way or another, and we’d have the odd meeting every once in a while. I was very close to him and his lovely lady Elaine.”
