Vivir de ilusión (1962)
Harold Hill, un farsante charlatán, se detiene en una pequeña ciudad y convence a sus habitantes para formar una banda de música infantil. Cuando consigue reunir el dinero necesario para sacar adelante el proyecto... se marcha sin dejar rastro. Buscando otro pueblo al que estafar, Hill llega a River City, en Iowa, donde intentará persuadir a sus habitantes de que la única forma de salvar a la juventud es organizando una banda de muchachos. Lo que no imagina Hill es que la profesora de música del pueblo, Marian Paroo, va a trastocar por completo sus planes.
