I actually wished she…

Julie Andrews is not Mary Poppins, nor is she Maria Von Trapp. She's Julie Andrews with all of the flaws, irregularities, and kinkiness of any normal human being. She's also a good and surprisingly versatile actress. It's just that many pigeon-hole her as this goody-two shoes, which limits her alot and hinders her from truly showing off her range. But guess what? Julie Andrews is an actress, she has boobs, the script of SOB required that she show them off, and she claims she did the film of her own free will. She also says she has no regrets and would do it again if it were appropriate. Get over it! She's an actress and a human being, not a fictional angelic character.
As for the movie itself, I didn't care for it much, but Julie taking this role (along with 10 and Victor/Victoria) was one of the best moves of her career. She's under no obligation to be prim and proper just because some of her most popular characters happened to be so. -

but they had to do it. they had to show her boobs because the whole big part of the film had to do with an erotic musical and her being an innocent big star showing her boobs as being scandalous and being infamous and making the movie a lot of money.

Hey Rlburns666,
Yes, I was aware that Julie Andrews actually has breasts. My mother also has breasts. For some strange reason, however, I really do not like the idea of seeing my mother's breasts.
Perhaps it may be a simple matter of taste. Then again, it could be something else for those folks who like the idea of seeing their mothers' breasts. Does the name "Oedipus" ring any bells?
Best wishes,

exactly. I can't remember ever, ever seeing boobs as perfect boobs in my life. they are perfectly symmetrical, perfectly evenly sized, perfectly straight, and they don't droop or sag at all, and are full, medium sized, and have such beautifully colored areolas, pink. maybe the most perfect boobs I've ever seen. I was so sexually aroused by her boobs in that scene, I was so overwhelmed and breathless. they revealed her boobs in a very effective and sexy way because they revealed them in an unpredictable way because you didn't expect to see them when you did. those guys are so stupid and immature saying I can't see her boobs because she's so innocent. and that one guy saying it scarred him for life sounds like he saw them when he was a little kid, so of course he would've been scarred for life, he shouldn't of been watching this movie then. when you get older you realize that all women have boobs and you mature and get ok with seeing any woman's boobs, even hers. I dont' have the memories of watching her in the sound of music and then having this innocent image of her in my mind, but even if I did, when I became an adult I would be able to take seeing her boobs.

but it doesn't matter, you view on her boobs or sexuality doesn't matter. it's called acting and so it doesn't matter what anyone thinks of her showing her boobs. all that matters is the integrity of the movie which in order for it to have it needed to have her boobs.

Have you ever visited reality?
Julie Andrews is an actress, a woman, a human being. She is not your ideal prim lady.
If your pleasant illusion - which actually sounds creepy and unpleasant - was shatttered by a movie, I suggest you need psychiatric help. -

"Julie Andrews is an actress, a woman, a human being."
What an idiotically obvious and banal comment. God knows how its supposed to support the idea that we should all be perfectly fine with her getting her tits out.
And Reality isn't a place. You don't 'visit' it.
Confused, much? -

"Confused, much?" is not a coherent, grammatically correct statement.
It is, however, as idiotic as your original musings in regard to the shattering of your illusions by a movie.
My comment that Julie Andrews is an actress, a woman and a human being was made in the context of your rather strange remark that she was somehow a paragon of primness in your imagination. If you don't understand what context is, I suggest you look it up, along with the name of a phsyciatrist who can help you with your delusions.
Understand now? -

Hey Scott,
I'm still with you on the idea of Julie Andrews showing her breasts. It simply reminds me of seeing your mother, your sister, or a Nun from your school days doing the same thing. You may have a real good looking mother, sister, and even a good looking Nun in your past, but do you really want to see them naked? To each his own, but that is not for me. It's not about whether or not the person is attractive; it's about who the person is. It's about modesty, not titillation.
Simply put, there are some people who I would rather not see in the nude, and I would submit that most guys would tend to not want to see their mother nude, nor their sister, nor a Nun they had in school.
When Terraplane suggests that someone needs "psychiatric help" simply because that person chooses to be discriminating in who or what he finds sexually stimulating, it simply does not make sense. Seeing Julie Andrews nude may be a pleasant experience for Terraplane, and I would not suggest there is anything wrong with that. By the same token, I see no reason why he should find fault with someone who does not share his sentiments about Julie Andrews' nude scene.
With UK in your screen name, are you by any chance from the UK?
Best wishes,

Hey Scott,
Please allow me to take a crack at being somewhat pedantic in making a comment on what Terraplane noted. According to Terraplane, ""Confused, much?" is not a coherent, grammatically correct statement." Well, I think Terraplane was missing the barn by about 12 yards there.
While I am not positive whether your "Confused, much?" is actually grammatically correct, I am absolutely certain that it is actually quite coherent in that the meaning of your words was clearly understandable. Perhaps if you might have written "Confused much?" instead of "Confused, much?" it might have been more grammatically correct. However, I was not an English major, so I am not really sure about that. One does not need to be an English major to know that written either way, your phrase was easily coherent for anyone for whome English is their mother tongue.
I suppose some folks may suggest that since you are from the UK and I am from the USA, that we actually do not share the same mother tongue. Well, I wouldn't waste my time in arguement of same. I would simply point out that it seems to me that we have been conversing on this thread for some time, and we have been able to communicate our thoughts and ideas between us rather well. I suspect if I ever visited the UK I might have some problems understanding the spoken word at times, but I am pretty sure I would be able to muddle my way across your land and enjoy doing so. Then again, I find I have trouble at times understanding the spoken word of some folks right here at home - including my children and grandchildren.
It certainly has been pleasant conversing with you on this thread.
Best wishes,
Dave Wile -

The whole film was a satire on the insanity of Hollywood, and I always took this to be a play on just how much hoopla is made over something that really doesn't matter in the grand scheme of things. They're just boobs for chrissake. It's amazing how the only people who could and are offended by it are the same ones who ascribe to it meaning that really isn't there.
Please don't feed the trolls.
