When the Navy captain Georg Von Trapp writes to the convent asking for a governess that can handle his seven mischievous children, Maria is given the job. The Captain's wife is dead, and he is often away, and runs the household as strictly as he does the ships he sails on. The children are unhappy and resentful of the governesses that their father keeps hiring, and have managed to run each of them off one by one. When Maria arrives, she is initially met with the same hostility, but her kindness, understanding, and sense of fun soon draws them to her and brings some much-needed joy into all their lives -- including the Captain's. Eventually he and Maria find themselves falling in love, even though Georg is already engaged to a Baroness and Maria is still a postulant. The romance makes them both start questioning the decisions they have made...

The classic story: 4 ghosts visit the miserly businessman Ebenezer Scrooge on Christmas Eve. The apparition of Scrooge's business partner Marley, the ghosts of Christmas Past, Christmas Present and Christmas As Yet To Come guide Scrooge along his loveless present and bleak future. The vision of his own headstone and the fact that no one will mourn his death force Scrooge to see the error of his "Bah! Humbug!" attitude towards both life and Christmas.
The primary recipients of Scrooge's moral rebirth are his poor clerk Bob Cratchit and his family, especially the crippled boy Tiny Tim. Scrooge awakens from his illusions and delivers a turkey to the Cratchit household, gives Bob a raise and reconciles with his nephew.
