About this product

Product Information

THE GREATEST SHOW ON EARTH is a dazzling, only-by-DeMille spectacle of life behind the scenes with Ringling Bros.-Barnum and Bailey Circus, the best three-ring circus in the land. The great showman Cecil B. DeMille produced and directed this splashy, colorful look at life under the big top. Charlton Heston stars as Brad Braden, the beloved circus manager who runs a tight ship with integrity and a big heart. In an effort to bring in enough money to guarantee a full tour, Brad hires the Great Sebastian (Cornel Wilde), a daredevil trapeze star, to replace his girlfriend, Holly (Betty Hutton), a beautiful and talented trapeze artist who had been promised the coveted center-ring spot. Sebastian, a suave ladies' man, instantly takes a liking to Holly despite their jealous rivalry. Holly and Sebastian carry on their feud high in the air, with an audience watching, performing a dangerous show of one-upmanship. While the two duel in the air, sparks fly on the ground, and Brad is too busy running the grand show to notice. This gutsy star-studded spectacle was produced in cooperation with Ringling Bros.-Barnum and Bailey circus and filmed in a semidocumentary style, with frequent cuts from the full-scale grandiose circus acts and larger-than-life costumes by the legendary Edith Head to real footage of the daily life on the road for the full-scale traveling operation. Jimmy Stewart costars in a gem of a role, as Buttons the clown, who is hiding from a mysterious past. This cavalcade of jaw-dropping visual splendor, complete with lions, elephants, and an action-packed train wreck of a finale, is DeMille at his grandiose best. Look for many small guest appearances from circus stars and celebrities, including Bing Crosby and Bob Hope.

    Great movie with something for everyone

    I saw this many years ago in the theater, and now that I have the dvd find it is just as good as ever. Charlton Heston and Betty Hutton are great in their roles, as well as everyone else: Jimmy Stewart, Gloria Graham, etc. Then there is the circus itself: the elephants, clowns, acrobats, parades, etc. There is mystery, romance, suspense, crime and a train wreck. Even the circus audiences are great. I highly recommend this movie, especially now that Barnum & Bailey/Ringling brothers has closed forever.

    After 170 Year's

    The Circus has Closed the Big Top ...IF You Ever Want TO See the Circus Again. You can revisit this timeless and golden time, if you were able to attend one you remember it for life or if you know someone who has never been, this dvd is for you since they are closed forever the only way to enjoy is on dvd. Modern replacement is all the theme parks. The Greatest Show on Earth has big stars as James ( Jimmy ) Stewart; the performances are great, the story line is about the circus and the performers, great costumes. Engaging and Entertaining...

    Great Show to watch on DVD!!!

    Always wanted to go to the circus when I was younger. Never did. Someone told me to get this movie on a DVD and watch it. Extremely entertaining with a huge amount of background insights that unless you were there, you may know nothing about. The Greatest Show on Earth is very much a movie anyone can enjoy. I did and I was glad I took the time to view it!
