CAROUSEL (1956) 14140

Original 20th Century Fox Insert Movie Poster (14x36) for the Henry King musical, CAROUSEL (1956) starring Gordon MacRae, Shirley Jones and Cameron Mitchell. This is the film version of Rodgers and Hammerstein's brilliant and popular stage musical about the tragic life of Billy Bigelow who, after a violent and premature death, asks to be sent down from heaven to try and make amends for the mistakes he made in his life. MacRae and Jones are perfectly cast, and their singing voices beautifully fill the roles. The film was produced in a wide screen process, CinemaScope 55, which was used on a limited basis in a few Fox films. But the film was generally distributed in 35mm CinemaScope prints. However, all the U.S. posters have the CinemaScope 55 moniker on them. So this poster should not necessarily be considered a roadshow poster. Condition is fine plus to very fine; vivid color and good paper integrity. MovieArt Austin guarantees that this poster is an original U.S. poster for this film. MovieArt Austin does not sell reproductions.
