Kym Karath

Post by Infinity »   3 likes

Kym Karath (born August 4th 1958) is probably my favourite 1960s child actress, she appeared in a few movies and TV shows, most notably in The Sound of Music (1965) playing five-year-old Gretl. Having grown up and left the acting industry, she's married now with a son and it looks like she's happy and healthy.

Kym is active on Twitter which is lovely to see, her Twitter is @KymKarath if you would like to check it out. Her IMDB profile is here.

Lovely fanpage, Infinity! Kym was the definite highlight of "Spencer's Mountain" for me, and I had no idea I had seen her in "The Sound of Music" years ago. I have "The Thrill of It All" downloaded but have not watched it yet. I am looking forward to it!

Have fun watching, and let me know what you think of it when you do! She's only little but I think Kym does a great job in her role. :)

Thanks pillowbaker! I have a couple of other actresses that I'm rather fond of, I'll consider making threads for those girls too. :)

It turns out I had actually seen "The Thrill of it All" before but did not realize it. I guess the 1950s and '60s Doris Day comedies all run together in my memory! The pool-and-suds scene is unforgettable, however. There is no confusing that with any other movie.

I was surprised that Doris did NOT actually break out into song in this one, but it allowed me to realize that she was actually a very fine comedic actress too and not just a great singer.

For a movie whose central theme is that a woman's greatest satifaction is popping out babies, I wish it had featured more screen time for the kids. Kym is such a little darling!
