- Amazing early Americana music from the Cinerama movie How The West Was Won.
Continued from my other video with Debbie Reynolds singing A Home In the Meadow from same movie.
How the West Was Won you could call it a movie icon but it came out in 1962 as the one of the greatest films ever made from Cinerama and I can recall it seeing it and Center Amarin New York on such a wide screen you had to take up two seats to watch it it was so huge and big with movie over chores and everything with an intermission everything they don't make movies like that anymore and if anybody ever gets to watch How the West Was Won on video or anyting Today DVD just looked down and say thank you for all those great Stars living today I could tell you Carolyn Baker is still alive taking them well she's a young woman at heart at about ninety years old plus thank you
One of the greatest films ever made. Should be shown in every classroom.
I never get tired of watching this beautiful classic movie. It was love at first sight when I saw this movie for the first time, and all the wonderful movies stars in this picture.
How The West Was Won is such an epic western to love and appreciate. With a fine and wonderful cast.
The soundtrack @ 4:25 was also played in the 1965 comedy western The Hallelujah Trail.
P.S Two finest westerns of all time that graced the screens. Hopefully will be appreciated for many generations to come.
Even today, one of the greatest movies ever made! It had a cast of almost every major star of that time period, and
the music was fittingly superb in every scene.
Love these sweeping historical epics. They don’t make them like this anymore.
Those last ninety seconds just send chills down my spine.
Western Epos composed by the great great Alfred Newman👍👍👍
still magic in this music...
1:45 - 2:39
Nine Hundred Miles From Home (sung by Dave Guard & The Whiskeyhill Singers)
I'm walkin' down the track I got tears in my eyes
I'm tryin' to read a letter from home.
If that train runs right I'll be home tomorrow night
'Cause I'm nine hundred miles from my home
And I hate to hear that lonesome whistle blow.
The train I'm ridin' on is a hundred coaches long
You hear the whistle blow a hundred miles.
If those tracks run right I'll be home tomorrow night
'Cause I'm nine hundred miles from my home
And I hate to hear that lonesome whistle blow.
Salli Terri sings this "Home in the meadow".
At 0:00-0:21 What's this song called?
It's rather like an orchestral overture of "A Home In the Meadow"
The melody is from "What child is this". Just different lyrics.
...and what about the First Nations....
*Song 0,23-1,42 ??????*
Greensleeves, but American
Lousy movie, wonderful music.
You're only half right.
Lousy my foot! This film was a masterpiece, it mixes an all-star cast of talent from Hollywood’s Golden Age with the modern enthusiast’s interest in history. This is basically the Wild West version of Downton Abbey, as we follow a pioneer family’s progress through multiple generations as they tamed the untamable, and conquered the incredible odds of men and Nature to flourish despite the obstacles. What is there not to like?
A wonderful movie with glorious music you must be a hard man to please!
