Child stars of iconic 60s movie reunite in Italy – can you guess the film?

STARS of an iconic 60s movie look completely unrecognisable as they reunited in Italy.
The film made over $200million (£148.2million) at the box office and has become a beloved classic of cinema.
Julie Andrews, 89, starred in the hit 1965 movie, The Sound Of Music as Maria Von Trapp.
She starred as a governess who was charged to look after the seven children of Captain von Trapp - played by the late Christopher Plummer.
At first, the former nun taught the strictly-regimented kids how to play and sing before catching feelings for her employer.
The pair ended up marrying, but were then forced to flee Austria as the Anschluss came into effect before WW2.
Kym Karath, 66, played the youngest child, Gretl von Trapp, and she took to social media as she reunited with four of her on-screen siblings.
She posted an image of five of the seven von Trapp actors as they soaked up the sun on a holiday in Tuscany, Italy.
Leading the pack was Nicholas Hammond, 75, who played the eldest von Trapp son, Friedrich.
This was alongside Duane Chase, 74, who played the slightly younger brother, Kurt on-screen.
Out of the rest of the girls, Angela Cartwright, 72, and Debbie Turner, 68, were also present after they played Brigitta and Marta respectively.
The quintet were all beaming from ear to ear as they delighted in each other's company, six decades after the film's initial release.
The post caption read: "All together in the Tuscan sunset!#thesoundofmusicinflorence#florence."
Charmian Carr is the actress who played the eldest child Liesl, however she passed away in September 2016.
Her co-star Heather Menzies would have completed the von Trapp lineup, but she died in 2017 aged 68.
Their on-screen father Christopher Plummer who played the retired naval officer passed away at the age of 91 in 2021.
The Sound of Music was a huge hit, winning five Oscars with five more nominations.
It earned the distinction of becoming the first movie to gross over $100million (£74.1million) at the box office.
When adjusted for inflation, it would have earned roughly $2.36billion (£1.84 billion).
