Carousel Ending | You'll Never Walk Alone

[@darlahelland2912]

My husband died Jan 2022. One Friday I went to our favorite restaurant for dinner. It had been a particularly hard week and I kept asking for a sign everything was going to be ok. When I started the car, satellite radio was on the Broadway channel and this song started playing. Music was a big part of our lives and we both loved this song and its message. Definitely a message from him.

[@craigasmith1]

Him, capital H.

[@charlesfultz8735]

As opposed of climb every mountain,it give you comfort

[@termitesarenotgoodforhomes]

Beautiful to hear. A definite sign as the chances of coincidence would have been vanishingly small.

[@e.conboy4286]

God bless you.

[@e.conboy4286]

⁠@@charlesfultz8735: The song ‘Climb Every Mountain’ is a challenge, if you will, to live your life with faith, gratitude and thanksgiving. Dont quit! At the time this film was being made, the sister of my friend, one of the girls singing, had polio and was sustained after being inside an iron lung with only her head out. She couldn’t turn over or move at all, and could only see anything but the end of her nose and by positioned by others overhead mirrors. Breathing was made possible mechanically by compressed air. Unfortunately if the power went out, life depended upon someone pumping it by foot or arm. It was many years later that a vaccine was developed for use in America. Hopefully this terrible disease will be totally eradicated with knowledge and practice of vaccination but some foreign countries do not allow vaccination. Many fatalities there too. That is a reason to protect yourself traveling worldwide. Be wise and wary. Get the vaccine if you haven’t. Research!

[@sumame47]

At the time that Rogers and Hammerstein wrote this musical, the subject of abuse was taboo. No one talked about it. You kept it to yourself. I saw the stage version at the Fifth Avenue Theater in Seattle shortly after my daughter died in a mass shooting. She had been abused by her boyfriend, and she had had enough and was ready to move on. He didn't like it, and he killed her and 3 others before committing suicide by cop. The lyrics are true and hit home. "When you walk through a storm, hold your head up high and don't be afraid of the dark......"

[@sharonreichter2537]

Oh Susan - I've just read the above and can only say how dreadful that must have been for you. Sending love. X

[@picknmix8623]

So so sorry Susan. My 17 year old brother died, many years ago and his football mates played this the evening he died at their local pub. The family then played at his funeral, makes me cry and think of him every time. Love this song.

[@deborahworth5291]

Susan you are very brave brave to tell your story. It’s difficult you will always have the wonderful memories only a mom has. Hopefully they can out weigh the bad ones. She was strong to walk away from him. I have been going through this with my 20 year old granddaughter. I hid her out for months. She finally moved in with her dad and went to court. He did not show up the first time. The second time he did with his mother. My Granddaughter told of the abuse and other things he did. It was hard because her Father had to hear it all. The judge told him never ever ever go near her. Not even the same town. He was given a one year restraining order. Her brothers and dad take her everywhere. She is coming to visit for three months and she knows he doesn’t know where I live or where her sister lives. She said she is happy to be able to go shopping by herself. I am praying for you My dear Susan to make life easier and gentler for you. Hugs prayers and love Deb xx Blessings always Susan 🌹♥️🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏

[@roninjoey]

Wow… I’m so terribly sorry that happened to you. Carousel has always been my favorite musical. I think maybe you find some hope in it, I always have. It just seems to be a very meaningful story to me. I hope you can find some solace in it.

[@janbarrett4544]

You have experienced the most horrific experience and come through it.I am proud of you,and for the courage you have given to others by sharing your pain.Thank you.

[@moonshadow3946]

Carousel is absolutely one of the best Film Musicals Ever. The acting and the beautiful songs make it number one in my opinion.❤❤❤

[@fallenhero3130]

I always bawl my eyes out at this ending. Billy may have failed in his own life, but there is hope for the future, and Louise may go on to make better choices. Everyone’s ride around the carousel of life is different.

Possibly the greatest song from a Musical or Movie ever !! Here's to it !! What a Song !!

[@marytheresejacksonlutz2533]

My niece sang this song at my mom’s funeral. A real tribute to my mom, who did not have an easy life.

[@michaelhayden725]

Totally agree!

[@julz63]

This would bring a tear to a glass eye 😭 I love this movie, and this was the first movie my Dad took my Mom to see when they were “courting”. He told the story to us as kids to say it made him cry 😭 I love this movie , it holds a special place in my heart, thank you for uploading this clip ❤️

[@Caseytify]

I was stage crew my senior year when we did this musical. I still can't hear this song without getting teary-eyed.

[@aminsadeghpour1549]

this is one of the best endings of a musical in my opinion. billy gets to redeem himself in Julie's eyes and gets a chance to tell her that he loved her as best he could in spite of what he did to her. he also gets to teach his daughter that regardless of the mistakes he made in life the daughter has to stand on her own two feet. I think that was his purpose of coming back to Earth.

[@tonykelly109]

Billy doesn't redeem himself...it's too late, but he gets to see them, & offer advice.

[@fjccommish]

He beat her mother.

[@aminsadeghpour1549]

@@fjccommish he did not mean to do it. I think he was frustrated. Not that it excuse his behavior. Also I am not excusing the fact that he committed a robbery thinking he had to steal to provide for his family. He never cared for anybody except himself in his life. Probably if he had more of an opportunity to learn to love somebody other than himself he would have understood what being a father really meant.

[@bettyknowlton3700]

He also hit his daughter which the movie excuses. Different times. Timeless beautiful music.

[@brucejackson4219]

Surely the ultimate tear-jerker: as I type this, my eyes still damp from crying.

[@marywood4955]

Carousel has always been my favourite musical film. It had everything, joy sadness and a good story line. With the true and meaningful version of Your Never Walk Alone, which always makes me cry. Thank you to Rogers and Hammerstein ❤

[@ArrisaJoyceDelosReyes-sr5hm]

When you walk through a storm Hold your head up high And don't be afraid of the dark At the end of a storm There's a golden sky And the sweet silver song of a lark Walk on through the wind Walk on through the rain For your dreams be tossed and blown Walk on, walk on With hope in your heart And you'll never walk alone You'll never walk alone Walk on, walk on With hope in your heart And you'll never walk alone You'll never walk alone

This is a Masterpiece of all time! IT's a pity to know that all those actors/singers and actress/singers in the actuallity all them are dead, they are not in this Earth and they left to us a wonderful and beautiful musical film like this jewel called Carousel 1956... it puts tears in all the people that have seen this outstanding wonderful Masterpiece... Gordon MacRae was very amazingly handsome, and Shirley Jones was the woman most beautiful over the Earth as well and all the rest of characters were impressing in all sense! To say to all them God be with them and thankful for this beautiful legacy of film Carousel... Rest in Peace all of you... and the end of Carousel brings me to tears Once more 😭

The Carousel is an adoptation of a hungarian play "Lily" by Ferenc Molnár, written in 1909. The original play takes place in Budapest, but it was so popular, that was introduced in New York and London. It was then, when Oscar Hammerstein noticed it, who received the rights for the musical adoptation from Ferenc Molnár....

[@DerekRoss1958]

Molnár helped Rogers and Hammerstein to adapt Liliom into Carousel too. And he loved the end result.

[@frednutz1604]

And an anthem was born.

[@silvialeprattomazza6214]

This song was popular when I grew up and First Lady Jacqueline Kennedy epitomized the meaning of this song.

[@twilightblue8566]

I love the beautiful music, dancing, scenery, and much of the acting of this movie, but not abusive Billy and then Julie and her daughter saying that sometimes you can be hit hard but it doesn't hurt, unless they meant being hit hard emotionally.

[@causasui8185]

You're right. Thanks for bringing me back down to earth. I had forgotten about that part.

[@epdunndunn65]

This song makes me feel so good,I believe 😊👍

[@GayorgVonTrapp]

Heartbreaking. Beautiful colour and cinematography.

[@srfurley]

One of just two films made in the CinemaScope 55 format. This used a 8 perf negative format on 55.625 mm film stock. This gave a frame size about twice the linear size, four times the area, of standard 35 mm CinemaScope. The frame size was even about 1.4 times the area of a 65 mm Todd-AO negative. Release prints were on standard 35 mm CinemaScope. There was a proposed wide film print format with the frame size reduced to about 75% of the negative , with a 6 perf pulldown and the width thus made available used for stereo magnetic sound tracks. This format was never used. I don’t know if the original 55.625 mm negatives still exist, and whether they could be scanned, but If they could it would be interesting to see what a good 4K DCP made from them would look like; I’ve only ever seen the film as a dirty and scratched 35 mm print with mono optical sound. The other CinemaScope 55 film by the way was The King and I.
