What might put you off
  • No age rating on record, so check it first for young kids.
  • Made in 1962: an older pace and style.
  • Skip it if you're after something serious tonight.

Supported avidly by his mother and more reluctantly at first by his father, a working-class Austrian boy joins the Vienna Choirboys, where he proves to be unusually talented.
