I'm 90 year old Brit. and grew up able to watch all the American and British Musical films during the 50s. This one that I hadn't watched since. It brought back all the words and music. A great film.
הייתי בקולנוע וראיתי את הסרט בנעוריי וכעת
Bless you my brother!I am 73 trying to prepare myself for my last journey;May God be with you on yours and guess I will see you on the other side
Yeah you will
Hi, was this good?
I 44 watched it last night with 89 granny, and here I am early in the morning searching it up
This film is a timeless masterpiece. Outstanding songs, brilliant vocals, unbelievable musical arrangements.
I haven't seen this film for years, I'd almost forgotten how wonderful and magical it was
I am 75 years old, and this were the kind of films we grew up with. Good, clean, honest, beautiful films. Thank you for this upload.
I’m 86 years old and I love this kind of movie. So clean so nice and so beautiful music. 😂
I grew up in NJ and my parents played records of all the musicals all the time. We all sang all the words. Haven’t seen this in decades. Thank you! 🌸
Met Juanita Hall when I was a little girl. The stage play came to Boston. She joined my parents & me at our table saying, “Is your name Juanita Hall, too” to my mother as her name was Juanita also. When the movie came out, I went many times to see it & sang along with every lovely song. Had a huge crush on John Kerr/Lt. Cable. Happy memories.
A wonderful musical with unforgettable songs, is there anything better than this to watch.
Yes, a dame! 😆

There’s nothing like a dame!!🤣

I love the intro with a blank screen and the full orchestra teasing us with the South Pacific music in full theater sound. Listening with my earphones on reminds me of the day in 1956 when I first attended the showing. I miss great musicals!
A great film and it's great to watch and yet there's many others that I like to watch also. However I think this is the greatest musical of all time.
love the musicals back then,,, they don't make them like this anymore...
More like nowadays there are barely any musicals at all, and when they are, the marketing tries to hide them.
@@andreabanuelosavila2317 I'm in full agreeance.
Agreed!
@@andreabanuelosavila2317There are still lots of musicals on in the #WestEnd & on #Broadway.
Great movie, saw it many years ago , really enjoyed it this time 😊
The world was such a better place to live in when this magnificent movie was filmed. No computer generated garbage that's prevalent with most films today. Wish I could be magically taken back to this period of time.
Where there was prejudice against different races, women were considered subservient & were expected to aspire to find a man and to be barefoot & pregnant in the kitchen. If they did work they basically had the choice of nurse, secretary or teacher. They received minimum wage & stayed way below the salery of a male in a comparable job. Yep, those were the "good times."
Impossible.......
@@daniila.7545 Yeah, of course it's impossible but I can dream about doing so.
A better place? No. This is a wonderful film but 1950s apartide, Jim Crow, no loans/ credit for women, unregulated use of the environment and on and on……. I’ll happily watch this from 2024😊
@@lynette6085 To each their own lynette. In the 1950's money was real and still backed by gold. Today the dollar is not money but legal tender and inflation (which is a hidden tax) is killing the middle class. Loans weren't needed as much in the 50's to live as they are today. Today the world is controlled by the elites whose rules andr egulations only benefit them and its a far more dangerous place to live in. But enjoy the movie. It's a gem.
STUNNING!
Rogers and Hammerstein were the greatest!
My High School did this musical in my Senior Year 1969.So many wonderful memories.Loved this.
Pretty ambitious for high school.
@davidh9638 We had 2 fantastic Drama teachers.They actually had been involved in doing script writing etc back in there day.I am a Thespian.You had to earn that back in the day.In my first year in college to get my fine arts done,I actually played Mary Queen of Scots however this was fun,but I knew my calling very early in life.I am a Retired RN.
Same here but in 1967.
@@davidh9638I've seen it as a high school musical. They play is, of course, not as detailed.
Mitzi Gaynor should have received an Oscar for this.
Overshadowed by Susan Hayward's showy performance in I WANT TO LIVE! This whole film was eclipsed by another musical in 1958.....GIGI...
@@maestroclassico5801 Eclipsed? _South Pacific_ was the highest-grossing film of 1958. The soundtrack was also a massive bestseller, topping the charts for 7 months..
@@maestroclassico5801 GIGI won all the Oscars, but which 1958 movie musical is remembered more? I think South Pacific. Certainly the songs.
@@user-rh2io7gm1l Was it really the highest grosser? I'm not doubting you I'm just impressed if that's true. I really thought Gigi cleaned up. And I had the soundtrack album since I was 10 you don't have to convince me (it was frustrating though as the album was abridged a bit).
Gigi was awarded all the Oscars, south Pacific superseded at the box office
Thanks for presenting this timeless classic on RUclips.
Wow, what a treat, South Pacific, the full movie, this all time great musical.
possibly the most beutifull film ever made such music such voices and the actors just perfect it does not get much better than this
It was the #1 box office film in America in 1958. It had not only Rodgers & Hammerstein's best score ever, but R&H's personal attack on the racism of the America of that time which we still fight seven decades later. Yet, the film not only did not even get a nomination for Best Picture, but had to watch from the sidelines as another musical (''Gigi''), a questionable film which has a storyline about a man falling in love with an underage girl won the Best Picture Oscar. Tragic.
Says an awful lot about the mainstream values of the time doesn't it. My fifteen year old daughter has always absolutely loved these old musicals, looking forward to sitting with her later and watching this as she's never seen it and I was probably her age when I last did! 😂
This is the PERFECT musical. Rodgers & Hammerstein's best score ever, as played by Alfred Newman's 20th Century-Fox orchestra with a riveting important story which attacked the racism which, sadly, we are still fighting today.
James Michener 's original book is more racist. The "N" word even got used.
No sound ?
Haven't found any of Alfred Newman's scores I don't like. Particularly am in love with "what if" from the TV version of the ghost & Mrs. Muir
@@shabbymaverick7975 Alfred Newman trivia: he reused his "Hallelujah" theme from the end of "The Hunchback of Notre Dame" twice. In "Song of Bernadette" and "The Robe" . The Robe is currently on here for free. Whether he wrote the score or adapted the score like here in South Pacific, it always sounds so authoritative.
@@ceciliawee3043 There's sound all the way through this film....
I first saw this musical in a theater on the island of Okinawa in 1967. I was the only American in the theater.
I'm curious what the audience thought of it. It seems like it deals with such 1940s American provincial attitudes. Not that the Japanese don't have their own provincial attitudes. I'm just wondering how it translated.
Did they cheer in the wrong parts?
Many musical movies I viewed again and again. This is my best.
Oh lord… all the biddy-curmudgeons in the comment section pretending that times were better back then. I must have lived on a different planet at that time, because I remember things being absolutely horrendous. 😂 Nice musical though.
What a wonderful revisit 👍 I’m 71 years old 😀😀😀
The all time musical hit before the sound of music
I am 61 years old and this is my first time seeing this. I knew some of the songs, and now I know where they fit. I loved it.
At 77 now, this movie made me the civil rights activist I’ve been all my life. Thank you Oscar Hammerstein!!!
I don't know which musical my Pa loved more, South Pacific or My Fair Lady but I suspect it was which ever one he was playing on his Hi-Fi at that moment. This is a sentimental gem.
My Fair Lady. Hands down. This movie was a fiasco with those alarmingly distracting color gels ruining some of the finest music written for the stage.
Thank you, sharing. I'd say that about both my mother and dad, who were lucky to share their love of music with the three of us children... ❤️ 💜 let's forward this minus the adds with friends and family
@@infonut I've read many criticisms of the color photography, but after living in Thailand for 18 months, the so-called weird colors perfectly captured the feel of the heat and humidity and even the smell. I know it isn't possible to smell colors, but the photography in this movie is very evocative for me.
My fair lady was such a bore
Wondeful to see this classic for free on RUclips.
Fell in love with this at age twelve... eons ago
This has always been my favorite musical. The score is wonderfully memorable and the story devoid of schmaltz, based on gritty reality in put in a magical setting. The South Seas setting is always a winner and the story is completely compelling. I first saw it a s a boy in my local Odeon cinema and many years later I became a Horn player who enjoyed doing this in pit orchestra a couple of times. very happy memories of a thoroughly enjoyable experience.
A school friend of mine said he was going to watch South Pacific . This was late 50s early sixties . This must have been magical all those years ago on the silver screen in Liverpool. I really got into this . Thank you so much.🙏
perhaps I saw it at the same time.....could it have been at the Regal in Norris Green?...it indeed was magical
What a wonderful film! The people are beautiful and the men are men and the women women. Gorgeous!
"The men are men" shows your intelligence. Most of those sailors were plucked from Muscle Beach in LA. Most of them posed for gay "muscle" mags. Director of the stage and screen Joshua Logan was a nasty queen.
Educate yourself.

"Beautiful" ?
I have noticed a lot of brutes....
@@user-yp2mw2ko9kUnfortunately it appears you are viewing this movie through your generational? prejudices. Consider what life was like during WW11. This is a great movie.
@@metea8271
Firstly, your english is bad.
Secondly, what is my "generational" (you mean "my generation"? How old am I - you got second sight?
Thirdly, did I miss my history lesson - when did WW "11" take place, I have heard only about WW I and WW II so far.
No wonder you like this shitty movie....
I'm a 89yts old. So good to be able to see these beautiful old films.Thanks for making it possible.
Always have loved this movie. Could watch over and over ❤️
This show ran 4 and half years continuity at the dominion cinema London, I understand this is a record for a movie musical
It was ,my parents saw it in 1958/9 at the Dominion in London,
in fact my father saw it 4 times at this theatre in London alone once on his own, was so impressed by it, took my mother, then took her and her parents to see and finally took my mother and his parents so impressed by it he was,
but this wasn't the version they saw, they saw the European cut, which they say is now lost, it doesn't start like in this version on the beach, but like on the stage opening after the plane ride, on Emile's plantation terrace, they also tell me it contained a lot that has been cut from this version, for example the reprise of 'Some Enchanted Evening', which is hideously cut before the 'Wonderful Guy' sequence. I don't think it contained the longer version of 'I'm Gonna Wash That Man' as per the Soundtrack album but I can be sure about that, but it was a much longer version.
Am a FILIPINO and I've seen this fantasic movie broadway musical when 5:27 I was in my high school days. I was indeed enthralled and rewatched it in movie theaters in all its reruns after I graduated in college!!!
I've always loved this film, it gets criticism for the coloured filters, personally i love them
Folks forget there was no C.G.I in those days...This was how fantasy and mystery was achieved....
It did make it feel a little more magical but it would have been interesting to know how the film would have been received without them. Personally it doesn't bother me much either way, the story sucks you in and you shouldn't notice the background.
@@kristenjensen2589there certainly WAS cgi in those days. Disney was experimenting with them. They were just called "special effects".
I think the colour filters are better when seen on the huge Todd ao screen, as it was meant to be seen
Thanks for posting this wonderful movie. I am going to loop it and play it all night!
I've been looping "American Made" for past eight years, I've even dedicated separate TV set to it. Still great movie this one is. ✌
Notice to younger generations....
This film is about bigotry.
What it looks like.
And what it takes to heal or stop it.
I haven’t seen this film in many years. It's more important than I remembered. Thank you for posting it!
It took me back 67 years . how beutiful Iwas a student in Chicago from Greece , the golden Age of America .Thank you .
Same here, I was in my early teens, “in love” with the “wrong” guy ‘til I “grew up” 5 yrs later?! So this film was just so romantic with fantastic music & the new colour effects it made my 💓pitter-patter more. Thinking back on issues in the story it must have also then been a wee bit controversial?! I must have seen the film at least 20 times but still see something new in it each time😊. Fantastic treat from RUclips, thank you. J C
The colour filters used in south pacific were very controversial the critics hated them, however the public at large loved the movie regardless, it became a box office hit ,in its day
One of my personal
favorite musicals since
I was a baby!
Bali Hai will always
remind me of Maui.
It calls to me always
This is a great classic movie that shall be around for many years.
The movie makers wanted to cut out "You've Got to Be Taught". Rogers and Hammerstein insisted it be included. IMHO, it's essential to the story.
Indeed. The "movie makers" over the years have watered down many a movie by cutting out essential material because they feel threatened by it.
Do not think of old films as dated. Think of them as a period piece. A slice of life from way back when. Also why I think removing books like To Kill a Mockingbird and The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn should not be removed from children's libraries. They portray life as it was. And how far we've come. Peace to all.
This is the very 1st time I watch this wonderful movie. I remember most of these beautiful songs. In fact, in between this comment I’m singing 🎵Younger Than Springtime Are You🎵, in my head. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Mom and dad got back from a trip to Reno and dad was over the moon. He had rested his arm on the stage while Mitzi Gaynor was performing. He was a WWII vet and a small town boy. Movies were a big deal in his young life. He could (and did) fill me in on every old movie actress we saw on series TV guest roles. He spent his Navy time in the Phillipines.
This so much better than the crap Hollywood creates today.
This is the first movie I was able to rent when I bought my very first VCR in the early 80s, I was born in 55’ and I couldn’t watch until modern technology caught up,,,,one of my favorite movies…….
Watched this many years ago, and still love it.
i grew up listening to the record my mother had of south pacific i have always loved the musical.
Saw this with my parents growing up. Some of the tunes remained with me through my 65 years. Glad to see this again at 70😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊
I remember holidaying in Kauai and got very sunburnt. So decided to spend the day indoors. Ended up watching South Pacific while gazing out at the jetty that was built specifically for South Pacific. The irony was not lost on me.❤️
What a wonderful experience and memory!
I was at Poi Pu beach......was it there??
Watching this has absolutely made my day! Thank you so much.
Thank you for another beautiful movie. It's one of my favorites ❤
Loved seeing this again, just a fabulous film l first saw when it came out. I remember being madly keen on John Kerr, although l was only about 8! ❤❤
I was madly in love with John Kerr from 1959 when the movie came out until he died. Only then did it go away.
Roadshow version, with Intermission, and pre-show overture. Perfect.
Mitzi is still with us at 92....
Oh, don’t say that!! Makes me feel even older!
Wow. She has stayed out of the limelight!
How often I have danced at night down my green lanes at Fame Oklahoma to the beautiful music of this move . thank you so much♥️
I love the whole gay chorus of seabees singing about dames!!!
sure they love gay fans who enjoy their gay chorus singing about dames. Makes for everyone having a gay time.
@@waldolydecker8118 I seriously doubt that a modern chorus of gay chorus boys (or any other kind for that matter) would be capable of pulling off those vocals. Body mics and overamplification notwithstanding. Yet another reason I cherish the movie musicals of the post war period.
I always remember when I was little my mom would play her albums in the living room South Pacific in Oklahoma it's the best memories
WONDERFUL AND FREE, ABSOLUTELY GORGEOUS, THE MUSIC JUST THE WAY IT HAS ALWAYS BEEN, THANK YOU GREAT PRINT, COLOUR AND EVERYTHING.
this type of musical marked an era gone by, when actors songs were dubbed by professional singers, and cinema was experimenting with colour , music never ceases and that is joyful.
I used to watch this often at my grandmas house. Such memories, the songs are fantastic and will stay with me forever. Thanks for posting 💚
And the cast is commendable esp. the leads ROSSANNO BRAZZI AND MITZI GAYNOR. I love the voice of dame MITZI GAYNOR. The soundtrack is worth listening to esp. the lovetunes "SOME ENCHANTED EVENING" and "YOUNGER THAN SPRINGTIME"!!!
I have never seen this musical even though I've known about it as far back as I can remember. It ALSO reminds me of way back when only the BEST of movies had an intermission. Refill your drink and popcorn or whatever.. and get back when you heard the theme music. Great memories of movie theaters past.
I am so happy to be able to watch this in such good quality!
I remember watching this on t.v. with my mother who love movie musicals. She would often get me up out of bed when my other siblings were sound asleep and she'd make a big bowl of salty burnt popcorn and I'd get a blanket and curl up on our old couch and mom would tell me all the gossip about the movie and the film stars as we were watching the show. Mom would usually fall asleep halfway through the movie but she'd wake up at the end as the credits were rolling, and then I'd go back up to bed.
Good times and Special memories with my one in a million mother .
What a great movie I haven’t seen it for years, but it is still so enchanting and wonderful. They don’t make musicals anymore, this won would be hard to not enjoy still. It’s nice to see something that isn’t full of sex, swearing and all the rest. This film takes you into a world of innocents and joy which we all now need. I love it still after all these years. 😊
I think my favorite musical of all time! ❤
Thank you for this wonderful movie.
Classic songs and great performers.
Love it❤
Ever since I saw this movie, it has been my favorite all-time, musical ever!
Beautiful melodies.. I loved it all over again.. My mum had the LP & the sheet music for the piano. 🏝
What a wonderful movie ❤. I absolutely loved it ❤. If ONLY these types of movies would come back again, the world would be a better place!! Thank you so much for sharing this 💕🙏🙏
This has always had a sentimental place in my heart. My mom saw it live on Broadway when it came out (as she did all the shows in the 40s and early 50s, being an Italian-American in da Bronx... all she had to do was take the subway downtown to Times Square. She saw Sinatra at the Paramount and was in Times Square on VJ Day.). Meanwhile, my dad was serving in the South Pacific very much like the fellows in this movie. (They met after the war.) Of course this is a great movie BUT... seeing it live on Broadway starring Kelly O'Hara... that's just a whole other experience. I can't imagine how mom must have felt seeing it live on Broadway with the original cast.
This is the first time I ever watched this movie. Very beautiful indeed! ❤
Youngsters probably wouldn’t recognise the structure of old musicals like these. You’d sit in your seats, lights would dim, you’d shut up chatting and the musical overture would play giving sound bites of the songs to come. Similar with the half time. Miss those times.
I sang the songs from South Pacific throughout my childhood. I remember most of the songs and their words to the present day.
The extended version is much better, filling in several gaps in the storyline. Great movie in any case.
They just don't make them like that anymore. We have all become too jaded these days.
Black screen( ouverture 3:36 min.) After this the movie/ musical starts !!! My mom loved musicals, and now i’m 67years i understand her for this love !!! ❤❤❤😊😊😊 L.M.
Thoroughly enjoyed watching a truly classic movie. Thanks for sharing it and making it available for everyone to enjoy!
How handsome and beautiful those actors really were!
This film always brings back memories when i was young good movie xx
Fabulous script, cast, music, story - Wonderful!🥰
What memories! I sang Emile DeBeque at university of Maryland in , I think, 1960, and later did the role of the lieutenant in summer stock in Beverly and Cohasset, Mass. From Rogers and HMmerstein to gangsta rap, what a devolution in our American musical culture.
Beverly and Cohasset? You must have been at the North Shore Music Theatre and the South Shore Music Circus, both theaters in the round. And both are still operating.
That's interesting as they are written for different vocal ranges. Aren't they?
Watched this the other night on TCM and it brought me back to my childhood. Loved it.
This movie was one of the main reasons I joined the US Navy and was in the medical field during the Vietnam War. I watched every movie about the US Navy I could!! I love this movie and was extremely happy when I found it. 👩🏼✈️⚓🏥💉💊🩹🩺🇺🇸
THANKS FOR POSTING IT! GREAT MOVIE!
One of my favorite movies and "Younger Than Springtime" one of my favorite songs. Thanks for showing.
One of my all time favourite films, such talented actors, and songs that bring back wonderful memories of my father who used to sing them to me. I'm so happy to find this film again, thank you 😊
The most wonderful musical of all time.
I do like the classic 1958 film version of Rodgers and Hammerstein's South Pacific and I have got it on DVD & Blu-Ray complete with 0:01 Overture 1:36:41 Intermission 1:36:52 Entr'Acte and 2:35:42 Exit Music
Thanks for preserving this film here for all to enjoy again and again
what a film, but it must be mentioned that the music was by that wonderful alfred newman with vocals by ken darby which set the atmosphere just right to evoke the momentum of the movie. never been surpassed.
Ummm...... music by Richard Rodgers and lyrics by Oscar Hammerstein II.
@@spikespa5208~ There’s an earlier reference to them being the 20th Century Fox orchestra. Lots of talent all the way around.🎶
@@spikespa5208Newman and Darby Adapted the music and supervised the orchestrations and Newman conducted the amazing 20th Century Fox Orchestra while Darby directed the Chorus.

It’s the truth, though. As soon as you accept that, you can work on changing it. Until then, it is futile to try. You’ll just be kicking at air.
They don’t make them like they used to do …… film with the feel good factor ♥️
This is a great restoration of the original film in sound and picture. I am not a fan of the colour filters, they’re not subtle but the score, the lyrics, the book, the production values, the casting, all are amazing.
I'm not a fan of the color filters either.
This is the Blu-Ray restoration of the film when it was released in 2010
Thank you for sharing this Wonderful Movie. Hollywood does not make these types of movies The Movies that are made now are filled with. Violence Sex Anger Dirty language and Hate. No good values taught to the young generation. Movies suppose to entertain and Relax. We Do Not See That In The Movies These days All the Movie directors are Concerned with Making a Fast Buck and Make movies full of Violence
first time i was exposed to a tropical paradise. when i grew oldeer i collected antiques to remind me of this life. now im rrtired in southern mexico on the oaxacan pacific coast with palm trrees mangoes and bananas in my yard.
Aside from all the other reasons to watch this wonderful movie, if you're interested in seeing what the Hawaiian island of Kauai looked like before it was built up for tourism, go to 38.15. It's just beautiful. Today, a gigantic hotel sits on that stop, and access is somewhat restricted by public barriers and iron horses, and cars parked all over the road.
