(5 stars) - Hopeful Story
This musical is actually about enduring hope and the possibility of redemption even after death. Desapir takes a back seat to hope which springs eternal.

(5 stars) - original music man.
this is a great movie. don't care for the remake. These actors couldn't be better.
I could watch it over and over, and do.

(5 stars) - So perfect
My father beat me once for a misdeed, and I resolved then
and there that Iwould never cry under his beltings again.
He whipped me 'til his belt broke and I would not give him the satisfaction of one tear.

But this music...and this movie... draws out what
the belt could not. It gets me every time. I fight it and the
tears well up on their own...what a perfect tragedy this movie
is, how haunting the music. Gordon McRae was such an artist.
His singing is perfect and inspired in these songs --- and
Shirley Jones complements him so well. I fell in love with her
Julie at first sight. If you haven't got this music or this
movie, you are missing out on one of life's greatest treasures.

(5 stars) - Complete Version
Since the 1970's newer copies of Carousel Have tracks that are edited
Thank God this version has a lot more music including the complete seven minute version of The Carousel Waltz I believe the movie itself doesn't play the whole waltz

(5 stars) - Gordon McRae At His Finest
Ahhh...absolutely the most Golden sounds from Gordon McRae. Makes you gain a whole new appreciation of this man's incredible voice. He seems to know exactly how Rodgers & Hammerstein wanted these songs to be sung.
Only soundtrack more comparable is "Okalahoma."
