"At first it was funny, but after several times I began to get very angry."

From the AP, a quote from Julie Andrews. I would kill for outtakes of her picking herself up off the majestic Untersberg after an aerial bitchslap, in her prim little nunny dirndl, cussing like Chris Rock. That would be better than the Star Wars Christmas Special.

"I will never forget it, there was a large helicopter coming towards me through the mountains with a brave cameraman hanging out the side," she said.

"We shot the scene many times, and at the end of each take, the helicopter would circle round. The downdraft nailed me flat onto the grass, and a couple of times I bit the dust. At first it was funny, but after several times I began to get very angry."
