Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts
1. He wonders what the grass tastes like and is incorrigible!

Answer: Kurt

He was born in Los Angeles, California. Robert Wise, director of the film, walked up to him and invited him personally to join the cast in Salzburg! Duane Chase's now 52 and lives in Washington.
2. He's seventeen goin' on eighteen and wants to take care of Liesl, later becomes one of the Nazis.

Answer: Rolf

In fact, while making the film Daniel Truhitte (Rolf) was 2 years younger than Charmain Carr (Liesl). He lives now in North Carolina and has 3 sons. Was originally turned down for the role of Rolf because his hair was brown, but was given another chance after turning his hair ;)
3. Always calm, full of faith and hope. Gives to Maria lots of wise advice and another chance to see, what her future is to be.

Answer: Mother Abbess

Born in Brooklyn, New York in 1892, Peggy Wood is probably best known for the record she set in the youngest entertainment medium, television, for eight years playing Mama in "I Remember Mama". Wood passed away March 18, 1978.
4. She has trouble following simple instructions only during the thunderstorms and can't seem to stop singing wherever she is ;)

Answer: Maria

Simple one, isn't it? ;) She was born in 1935 in Walton-on-Thames, Surrey, England. With all her charm, beauty, great voice and incredible acting talent, she seemed to be perfect as Maria. This role brought to Julie Andrews her second nomination to the Academy Award for the Best Actress.

After almost 40 years from the release of the movie, she still remains one of the most loved persons in Hollywood. "The Princess Diaries" became a huge success during one weekend!
5. She's always last because she's the most important and her finger got caught in Friedich's teeth!

Answer: Gretl

Born in Los Angeles, California. "The Sound of Music" was Kym Karath's fourth movie. In 1985 she married Philippe L'Equibec with whom she has a son, Eric. Heather Menzies - Louisa - is his godmother. Kym's now 43.
6. Wants to convince Captain von Trapp to let his children sing at the festival and wants all of Georg and Baroness' money to stay "in the family".

Answer: Max

He was born in 1905 in London. Max Detweiler from "The Sound of Music" was Richard Haydn's most known role. He passed away in 1985 in Los Angeles.
7. She'll be seven on Tuesday and her favourite colour is - same as Maria's - pink.

Answer: Marta

Debbie Turner was born in California. Before being signed to the "Sound of Music" she had done some commercial modeling. She now lives in a small town in Minnesota with her husband and four children.
8. She can climb to the governess' room with a whole jar of spiders in her hand and Maria doesn't know her yet but thinks, that someone has to find out.

Answer: Louisa

Born in Toronto, Ontario, Canada. After "Sound of Music" she was starring in the "Logan's Run" television series as well as other movies and then she gave up acting to become a full time mother to her two children with her husband, actor Robert Urich (he died on 16 April 2002).
9. She regrets she didn't bring along her harmonica and thinks that there's nothing more irresistable for a man than a woman who's in love with him.

Answer: Baroness

She was born in Cedarwille, Ohio. Wise had worked with Eleanor Parker before, so he was aware of her talent, but he also cast her because she had "name" value. Parker had been a film actress for 20 years and Wise felt he needed a "star" to sell his picture. After "The Sound Of Music", Parker retired to Palm Springs and remains proud of her part in the musical's success.
10. He thinks that a person can't marry someone when he's in love with someone else and when his wife died, she left him with a terrible heartache.

Answer: Captain

Born in Toronto, Ontario, Canada. Prior to "The Sound Of Music", Plummer had made only one major film, "The Fall of the Roman Empire". Regarded as one of the foremost Shakespearean actors of the day, he was valued not only for his acting technique but also for his air of elegance, which perfectly suited the role of the dashing widower Captain von Trapp.
