IM SORRY BUT????? Georg saying the ENTIRE PARTY would wait to have dinner so Maria could change?????? LIKE????? yeah he was being kinda jerky and brushing her off but it's not a small thing to say "we'll wait for you" about AN ENTIRE PARTY EATING DINNER????? He wanted her there and he was willing to wait and make everyone else wait so she could be there and that's how important she is to him and that's how he sees her that's his attitude towards her and it's such a contrast from him being annoyed with her being late to the first dinner. That little sentence is such a glimpse into what the future of their relationship looks like bc you can see how he values her so much even when he's not even being the nicest!!!!!!!
THANK U, YES.
@persaephone, I had to add your tags!
#so true bestie because of this text post i watched the scene again#and his jerkiness and brushing her off pinpoint to how deeply the laendler affected him as well#for god's sake elsa just caught him looking at her like that and she called him out#and he still has to pretend everything is all well and good while his home is invaded#and he can't act too invested either way in her decision so its up to her and even when she tries to argue against it#he reassures her still and puts off dinner for her#but then that got me thinking#everyone has gone through to the dining room when she leaves#so either elsa must have told georg that she wasn't coming#not out of any kindness but because she didn't want HER grand and glorious party halted by a slip of a girl governess#who has caused nothing but trouble#but also she could have not told georg she wasn't coming down until he notices the table setting is no longer there once they sit#idk there are so many possibilities

Idk why I've seen so many posts about "lo and behold you're someone's wife, and you belong to him" being toxic or sexist or something bc it's actually the most romantic line in the film actually!!!!!!!!!! Not to be like IF tHe RoLeS wErE rEveRsEd but would we not go feral if Georg had said "and you belong to her"??????????? She is not his in the way that she is a possession he owns, she is his in the way that she is his wife, his partner, the same way that he is hers. They belong to each other. They are the blueprint for romance methinks
The Rule of Thirds, Pt. 2 - “The rule of thirds starts by dividing the frame into thirds…The rule of thirds proposes that a useful approximate starting point for any compositional grouping is to place major points of interest in the scene on any of the four intersections of the interior lines.” - from “Cinematography: Theory and Practice” by Blaine Brown

Captain von Trapp served in WW1, he must have met scores of people like Rolf, boys who thought they were men, boys who thought they were ready to take a life. When he tells Rolf "you're only a boy" he's speaking from experience and when he says "you'll never be one of them" he's remembering those past Rolfs too in this essay I will
There is a trope/story device that I hear people complain about that I love: Dying Disease.
Dying Disease is the best actually. We don't need to know what they have and how it's killing them, we just need to prepare for the emotional impact. No, I don't care what Jean Valjean caught crawling through a Parisian sewer, tell me he's dying and sing a song!
Like honestly, a lot of the time real explanations take me out of the story. Real life diseases are unpredictable and messy. Survival estimates have huge margins of error. I don't need real life, I need a doctor to say, "He's dying" and for all the family to gather for meaningful last words.
Only in a story can we die uncomplicated, beautiful, predictable deaths. Let us have that fantasy.
