    Nice, if brief visual view of Austria with some folk customs, and instruments. A tribute to the Sound of Music. Some songs sung in German. A small tribute to the song Silent Night. A very special surprise was a cameo from the cast of the 5th Musketeer(1979). Lloyd Bridges, Alan Hale jr, Cornel Wilde and Jose Ferrer were dressed in character! The recent TV broadcast version I watched must have edited out most of Sid Caesar's part, as he had little to do. Senta Berger did a fair job of singing. The marionette's were nothing short of superb! Rousing finish!
