- Spectacular staging dots this widescreen deluxe Rodgers & Hammerstein musical as Gordon Mac Rae brings a blustery energy to the lead role of Billy Bigelow a drifter & ne&er-do-well carnival &barker& The troubled soul finally settles down with a good woman (Shirley Jones) but then gets stabbed to death while committing a robbery Many years later an angel offers the roustabout the chance to return to earth for just one day to makes things right for his unhappy wife & the daughter he never had the chance to meet Based on the French play " Lilion" by Ferene Molnar Carousel ranks among the better Rodgers & Hammerstein musicals making it a classic by any standard To boot the film&s tale of love between Bigelow & wife Julie rivals that of any other 1950s musical Songs from the outstanding score include & If I Loved You& & June Is Busting Out All Over& & & You&ll Never Walk Alone& The King & I
- In 1955 this lavish production of Rodgers & Hammerstein&s Broadway hit " The King & I" starring Yul Brynner as the King of Siam & Deborah Kerr as the governess sent to look after his children was the most expensive film ever mounted by 20th Century Fox The 40 sets in ripe decors by Walter M Scott & Paul S Fox included a ballroom of black marble with jade & silk tapestries & a banqueting scene with a table that gives the impression of stretching to infinity The costumes by Irene Sharaff notably the hoop ballroom gown for Deborah Kerr & those for the ballet " The Small House of Uncle Thomas" dazzle the eye in their delineation of Western manners & Oriental splendour Brynner remains impressive as the King but his pidgin dialogue inherited from Hammerstein&s book with the dropping of the definite article takes some adjustment Alfred Newman put his unique stamp on the music the Overture offers an example of his luminous divided string sound the climactic ballroom scene a full bodied orchestral reprise of " Shall We Dance?" as the camera pulls away to a high angle producing an exultant visual finish to this celebrated polka Oklahoma
- The hit Broadway musical from the 1940s gets a lavish if not always exciting workout in this 1955 film version directed by old lion Fred Zinnemann (High Noon) Gordon Mac Rae brings his sterling voice to the role of cowboy Curly & Shirley Jones plays Laurie the object of his affection The Rodgers & Hammerstein score

Includes:: " The Surrey with the Fringe on Top" " Oh What a Beautiful Mornin" & " People Will Say We&re in Love" & Agnes De Mille provides the buoyant choreography Among the supporting cast Gloria Grahame is memorable as Ado Annie the "girl who cain&t say no" & Rod Steiger overdoes it as the villainous Jud --Tom Keogh The Sound of Music
- The most widely seen movie produced by a Hollywood studio The Sound of Music grows fresher with each viewing Though it was planned meticulously in pre-production (save for the scene where Maria & the children take a dipping in an Austrian lake that nearly cost a life) on each viewing one is struck anew by the spontaneous almost improvisatory air of the acting notably of Julie Andrews under Robert Wise&s direction There are also the little human touches he brings to for instance the scene where Maria leads the children to the hills over bridges & along tow paths where the smallest boy trips up & momentarily gets left behind it creates a feeling that most of us have encountered From the opening pre-credit sequence of muted excitement as the camera roves over the Austrian Alps (photographed in magnificent colour) where little phrases from the wind instruments on the soundtrack are flung as if on the breeze foreshadowing the title song to follow the production never puts a foot wrong South Pacific
- The dazzling Rodgers & Hammerstein musical brought to lush life by the director of the original stage version Joshua Logan Set on a remote island during the Second World War South Pacific tracks two parallel romances one between a Navy nurse (Mitzi Gaynor) "as corny as Kansas in August" & a wealthy French plantation owner (Rossano Brazzi) the other between a young American officer (John Kerr) & a native girl (France Nuyen) The theme of interracial love was still daring in 1958 & so was director Logan&s decision to overlay emotional moments with tinted filters--a technique that misfires as often as it hits The comic relief tends to fall flat & an overly spunky Mitzi Gaynor is a poor substitute for the stage original&s Mary Martin But the location scenery on the Hawaiian island of Kauai is gorgeous & the songs are among the finest in the American musical catalogue " Some Enchanted Evening" " Younger than Springtime" "I&m Gonna Wash That Man Right Outta My Hair" " This Nearly Was Mine" That&s Juanita Hall as the sly native trader Bloody Mary singing the haunting tune that launched a thousand tiki bars " Bali H&ai" The movie is based on stories from James Michener&s book " Tales from the South Pacific" --Robert Horton Amazoncom State Fair
- Good old-fashioned hometown pride is on display in lavish Technicolor in this remake of the 1933 film the only Rodgers & Hammerstein musical written directly for the silver screen When the Frake family travels to the fair Ma & Pa (Charles Winninger & Fay Bainter) enter contests while daughter Margy (Jeanne Crain) & son Wayne (Dick Haymes) both fall in love for the first time State Fair is attractively photographed & energised by the vibrant performances of the talented lead actors & actresses but the high point of the film is the colourful hoopla & hullabaloo of the fair itself a bustling nexus of strange wonderful & hilarious characters brought to life by the fine supporting cast Songs from the Academy Award-nominated score include & It&s a Grand Night for Singing& & That&s For Me& & the Oscar-winning & It Might As Well Be Spring&
