Filled with errors from beginning to end. The production value was just plain BAD. Don't waste your money...and that is coming from a Julie Andrews lifelong fan.
The 2 people talking throughout the piece appear to be 'experts,' but it is amazing that they and the narrator had speech errors.
Did someone just make this in their garage on a laptop?
This should not be called a documentary....nor should it be called a work of fiction, but while there were some truths in the piece....one being that it was about Julie Andrews.....virtually every part was full of made up things.
My favorite was that they said that The Sound of Music was a Disney film.
Again....not worth the hour or the $9.99.

How do these "experts" get picked? The factual errors come so thick and fast that it is almost funny. Apparently Afua Hagan thinks that Disney made The Sound of Music and that it included a scene where Maria made curtains out of outfits!
Seriously, anyone can make a slip of the tongue but how did this get through editing? Presumably the same editor that used stock footage of cellos and ballet dancers whenever they couldn't be bothered to source (ie pay for) a suitable image.
For some reason Julie's career skips from The Sound of Music to Victor Victoria, missing out whole swathes of her career, then focuses on her operations and recovery.
Laughable.
