during the long, lonely evenings. And the tune it made was very

pure, glorious sound...”

little goatherd, and...”

Movie Name: The Greatest Show on Earth (1952)
Quote: [first lnes]
Narrator: We bring you the circus, pied piper whose magic tunes greet
children of all ages, from six to 60, into a tinsel and spun-candy
world of reckless beauty and mounting laughter and whirling
thrills; of rhythm, excitement and grace; of blaring and daring and
dance; of high-stepping horses and high-flying stars. But behind
all this, the circus is a massive machine whose very life depends
on discipline and motion and speed. A mechanized army on wheels,
that rolls over any obstacle in its path, that meets calamity again
and again, but always comes up smiling. A place where disaster and
tragedy stalk the big top, haunt the backyard, and ride the circus
train. Where death is constantly watching for one frayed rope, one
weak link, or one trace of fear. A fierce, primitive fighting force
that smashes relentlessly forward against impossible odds. That is
the circus. And this is the story of the biggest of the big tops,
and of the men and women who fight to make it "The Greatest Show on
Earth."
