by Hans-Ueli Tschanz. Article published in Gstaad My Love Magazine in December 2010 just prior to the death of Blake Edwards on December 16 2010.
The world-famous Julie Andrews turned 75 on October 1, 2010. For the past 40 years, the Hollywood and Broadway star and her husband, producer Blake Edwards, have spent their holidays in Gstaad. They feel at home here, they have raised their children here, and it is here that they find strength for their new projects. Some of her greatest cinematic successes originated in their Gstaad chalet, the 'Fleur de Lys'. Julie once gave Christmas lighting as a gift to the town of Gstaad to the amazement of the guests and locals alike. She also committed herself personally for the benefit of Gstaad’s film festival, CINEMUSIC, in the 1990’s by way of various performances and by using her own personal relationships within the film industry. In an exclusive conversation, she offers details about their personal memories of the many years spent in Gstaad and her deep bond with our region. She ended the conversation with this sentence “I hope that you can understand how much I love Gstaad”.
