      We're watching Sound of Music for the first time in years and I love it so much but uh it's a little terrifying that no one ever uh- ok, let me set the scene:

      Fact 1: Rich widower has been through 12 nannies in a shockingly short time. Fact 2: Nanny #13 came back in a panicked rush in the middle of the night, locked herself away, and refuses to say a word to anyone for days (weeks?). How is NO ONE thinking Bluebeard / sexual assault?

      I remember as a kid thinking the "12 nannies" thing meant the kids were a terror (which we're supposed to think). But as an adult, my first thought from Maria's & the abbess' POV when the letter asking for a governess comes in is that this guy is probably harassing the help.

      He wrote a *goddamn nunnery* for help? which would seem to imply that: A) He can't locate a professional or even a local girl willing to take the job despite his vast sums of money. B) and/or He wants someone virginal and inexperienced living in his house.

      I'm sure there's an explanation for why all this was perfectly reasonable in the Real Life events, I'm just amused that the fictional version hits so differently as an adult than when I was a child.

      The situation is wildly exaggerated from real life, where the primary reason he was hiring someone was as a tutor for his second eldest daughter who was entering high school (also named Maria irl, named changed to Louisa in the play/movie)

      They kind of switched everything around to make the situation more dramatic Irl the Captain wasn't that desperate to look for a nanny, and he wasn't a strict disciplinarian who drilled his children like Navy cadets, it was the opposite

      It was the stereotype of a man who never learned and didn't care about childcare or housework and thus left the house in chaos constantly after his first wife died It was Maria who took the initiative to try to whip things back into some kind of order

      When she saw the movie the real Maria said they switched her and the Captain's personalities as parents, he was the lenient one and she was the strict one
