Although Julie tried to break out of that Mary Poppins image in the Americanization of Emily, (her favorite film), playing a nurse not averse to spending the better part of an evening in bed with a naval man, it was a failed attempt at emancipation.
Julie may be too pretty for a lasting solo run, but she self-confidently claims, “I shall surely try to accomplish whatever is needed,” (and the statement is not as bland as it might first sound, being that Julie is the consummate professional).
Julie is not new, she is merchandise-tested and found to be true in a formula.

 The religion of Julie Andrews, actress
Robert Windeler's biography of Julie Andrews states the only prayers she ever says are cursory ones before going out on stage, and that she had "no religious upbringing whatsoever." However, as an adult, Julie Andrews did find a religion, as she became a devout convert to Freudian psychoanalysis.
Blake [Edwards, who Julie Andrews began dating seriously after her separation and divorce from her first husband] was himself in five-days-a-week psychoanalysis -- in his case it lasted for seven years -- and he encouraged Julie's sessions with the analyst.
But Julie, who has no religious upbringing whatsoever (her only prayers were just before going on stage: 'Oh, God, don't let me fall on my face'), proved to be a zealous convert to psychoanalysis.
