“Carousel” Introduces
CinemaScope 55 To
Nome Moviegoers
“Carousel”, to be shown at
Nomerama Sunday and Monday,
is considered one of the finest
musical collaborations of Richard
Rodgers and Oscar Hammerstein
and Twentieth Century-Fox has
invested it with a lavish produc
tion. A large cast of singing
artists with Gordon MacRae and
Shirley Jones starring in the prin-1
cipal roles was assembled and
taken to Maine where a greater
part of the picture was filmed.
Cameron Mitchell, Barbara Ruick,
Claramae Turner, Robert Rounse
ville and Gene Lockehart will
be seen in the chief supporting
roles and a dance troupe of
40 was transported from Cali
fornia to Maine. There they per
formed an elaborate dance num
ber to the tune “June Is Bustin’
Out All Over.” It was the first
time in motion picture history
that such a dance had been at
tempted on location. Usually
dances staged on such a large
scale are filmed on sound stages
in Hollywood.
