'I was trying very hard not to fall in love with him.'
Julie Andrews launched a career that brought decades of joy and music to many, but along with that brilliant voice there was always something a little wistful in her eyes.
Andrews recalled being incredibly naive and"terrified" when she had to do her first love scene in"The Americanization of Emily.""James Garner, who was delicious, made it very easy for me," she said with a laugh."I began to think, 'It's getting a little hot in here.' And when I got up, I kept thinking, 'I can manage this.' And I got up and my legs buckled, because it really had hit me rather hard.
As a child with a supernatural singing voice, a part of Andrews' may have believed if she sang her heart out, she could somehow rescue her mother and stepfather from their alcoholism and disappointment. "It was one of those monsters that got hold of him so strongly that he couldn't resist," Andrews said of his eventual self-medicating with Demerol and oxycodone.
Andrews remained loyal by her husband's side for 41 years until his death in 2010. For their twentieth wedding anniversary, she wrote a poem for him that read in part,"When all is said and done, the lady's by your side for the wild fun, the fierce pain, the laughter in the ride." Andrews' daughter, Emma Walton Hamilton, recalled the moment when, as a child, she saw a"Mary Poppins" movie poster in a shopping center.
