@Jim Thompson - This IS definitively my all time favorite T.Z. episode "WALKNG DISTANCE." I watch it several times a year and every year. Never grows old. I think this was Rod Serlings favorite too. The music score composers did and AMAZING job - speaks deeply to the heart! We are all human. Sometimes I wish it was a one hour episode. Amazing what Rod did in just 30 minutes! I am 8 years younger than you and definitely relate to what you said. We need to get our country back on track! Pro America! Family values! Patriotism. Respect for police. I am Anti marxism. I am Anti communisim. I am Anti "woke" and "cancel culture" etc. Eternal life thru faith and trust in Jesus. In heaven I think we will be at the age we were happiest.

@Jim Thompson: I feel the same way. I can’t believe how much this country has changed in what seems like such a short time. I feel that it has become so dangerous, nothing happens to the criminals. You can get punched in the head just walking in a safe neighborhood by a stranger -- or even walking to your car after getting groceries ending up in the hospital - some with permanent life altering damage and there are no consequences for the person who committed the assault. Almost every day it’s a new nightmare. I no longer recognize my country. Stay safe.

@John Piper: I agree with you -- but I fear that the swarmy democrats will somehow have the fix in. I hate to think it -- but I’m thinking that the USA is doomed at this point. I hope that I am wrong. (I feel like I’ve already left this comment. Maybe under another video. Oh well.)

Yes, I agree. This is a big fan favorite, although personally of the TZ scores Herrmann scored, the most atmospheric was "Little Girl Lost."

I agree 👍🎼🎻

It's hard to imagine this high art being embraced today. It's not that the public wouldn't appreciate it, but the producers would nix it due to the costs of paying the composer, the musicians, and for the studio time. So today we end up with VST orchestras on a laptop and a composer with a 3 day deadline to churn out something palatable. No one is daring to be great.

Totally agree.

"their best feet"

There actually is a bit of a twist since he walks with a limp which apparently he didn’t seem to have at the start of the episode- in a way by going back in time he changed his own history-he remembered falling off the carousel but he never remembered exactly why.

Derek Gabrys. Yeah, I can relate to that. I remember watching this with my dad when I was 17. I thought I had all the time in the world. My dad told me life is fleeting but I never really tried to understand what he meant or the melancholy behind Martins sentimental journey. How ironic now that my father is gone, I finally understand Martin’s longing for his youth, lost love and feeling lost in this crazy world.

Yes very deep for sure. WALKING DISTANCE.

beautifully put.

Haha yes and the memories are stiull as good then as they are now when looking back to those days.

martin sloan: : )

I should change my name to Martina Sloan. I’m in the same boat as Martin.

Gig Young was 46 when he played that role, and looked it.

Yes indeed I agree and have observed and noted this too.

Yes; this has always been the high point of the episode for me. The slow, almost "ritualistic" processional of silent kids in the darkness...very stylized...accompanied by Herrmann's stately HANDELIAN/Baroque chord progression, is an uncanny and striking moment, which signals that the childhood fantasy now must end. LR

Yes. One of Herrmann's best for television....

Same here.

@ Brian: Agree. My innocent wonderful childhood with my 3 best friends (sisters) down the block. Sleepovers every weekend, we’d go to the show on weekends, parents picked us up, we’d go home and make cookies, parents let us stay up in the wee hours of the morning, sometimes we’d stay up to watch the sunrise. We’d play monopoly and other board games at night, softball, volley ball, tiger baby stop, on and on . My childhood was magical. I wish I could go back to the late 50s, early 60s --- my parents and grandparents were alive -- yeah -- just let me go back for a little while. This is my favorite Twilight Zone that makes me think about all the fun my friends in the neighborhood and I had. Just let me live it again. To this day I love pink cotton candy. Sorry for rambling.

@@lilybond6485 Me too ... and don't forget the marbles .... clearies .... steelies. My favorite T.Z. episode of all time too! WALKING DISTANCE. I was 3 when this came out. Watch this every year and has same emotionaly charged effects on me always and never, ever, gets old. Rod's masterpoece indeed! Semper Fi #USMC #Trump2024

@John Piper: I remember those marbles. I loved those clear marbled -- deep red, pale orange, dark green, light green, pale aqua, most had imperfections in them - like little bubbles. Held on to them for the longest time. They were at my parents house - the shrine they kept of my childhood bedroom - up until my father passed and then my brother got rid of everything and sold their home. I’m going to have to ask him if he kept the marbles. I almost don’t want to know if he tossed them. He’s not a keeper of things. I lived 1,200 miles away at the time and he saved only a few of my childhood “treasures”. Well -- I guess saving my original 1st edition Barbies in mint condition, and all of my Beatles records and loot was pretty good. 😉

​@@lilybond6485 How about those paper caps with gunpowder in a red, white and blue box ? Putting strips on the side walk and using a rock pounding them to make them ignite. Or the little color plastic squirt guns and water ballons in the summer time. "Sun showers" Those small simple kight wooden planes you assemled to fly. Or Bazooka Bubble gum. The real Superman George Reeves and Louis lane. Addams Family. Shoe lace licorice. The Lone Ranger! And yes the playground. All of the merry-go-round scenes move me deeply in "Walking Distance." I am not too far from Rod Serliing's childhood home. I remember the blizzard of 1966 when I was 10. Christmas's were happy and the stores were lighted with very colorful bulbs - the big ones .... Santas everywhere. You could trust your neighbors most of the time. We walked to school etc. This of course is just the tip of the iceberg. "YEAH .... THAT'S WALKING DISTANCE" Men were men ... ladies were ladies ... boys and girls were just that. How about the "Pledge of Allegiance" in school with hand on your heart. Police - we used to get a short motorcyle ride from the police when I was about 6 in 1963. TAKE CARE ... SEMPER FI #USMC #TRUMP2024

I’m at that stage now Linda. It’s hard dealing with this current world and all of the madness going on. -- but really what am I saying -- it has always been going on -- but when I was young I was sheltered from it or maybe we, our parents were just not aware. One of the downfalls of the internet. You find out what is going on in another part of the world in an instant. So we know all of the horrors.

This IS definitively my all time favorite T.Z. episode "WALKNG DISTANCE." I watch it several times a year and every year. Never grows old. I think this was Rod Serlings favorite too.

I would like to die in my sleep and wake up back in my childhood with my parents, grandparents, all of my friends in my wonderful middle class neighborhood and give up all of my current assets, possessions which have always been very important to me. I’d give it all up in an instant -- to go back.

Kirsten I. Russell I go through the same experience. My father was tragically killed in a car accident many years ago and for a long time I tried not to think about him because it made me too melancholic. But for some reason every time I was flying up at high altitudes, his memories would flood back and I would become very quiet and sad. This was very noticeable to my co-pilot, so I used to become self-conscious about it. Now, once in a while he appears in my dreams like he is still very much alive but much younger looking than as I remember him and we talk sometimes. Even after I wake up, for the first few minutes, I still think he’s still alive. Death is still very hard to deal with because it is so final.

many of herrmann's scores try to articulate this feeling through music. his scores for vertigo and the ghost and mrs. muir are very similar to this, very haunted and nostalgic. he's pretty much my favorite composer ever.

@@violetwinspear4466 are you familiar with Samuel Barber's Adagio for Strings?

I think now of my father who died of the effects of cancer on 8/25/21.

@Allie Hamilton: I will NEVER forget hearing Princess Grace’s favorite music “Adagio for Strings” by Barber -- that was played at her funeral. The tears just started streaming uncontrollably down my face. This piece has the same effect but I guess more because this is my favorite.

It will be .... Jesus says he shall wipe all tears from their eyes..... eyes have not seen nor ears heard the things that GOD has prepared for those that love Him.

@amzdaniel858 - It will be .... Jesus says he shall wipe all tears from their eyes..... eyes have not seen nor ears heard the things that GOD has prepared for those that love Him.

".....God help me."

My favorite too.

Same.

a more sophisticated musical era

while i can't say much has been as good as herman's there is still great stuff being written. season 5 of doctor who from Murray Gold, bits of the Mandalorian by Ludwig Goranson etc.

You can tell Bernard Herrmann writes his music with a passion that is rare.

I thought the score for Ozark's (first season, particularly) was very good. Game of Thrones had a compelling score too (particularly its earlier seasons), along with Chernobyl, The Queen's Gambit and The Mandalorian.

Not only was it for a TV show, it was for a TV show from the 60s, with a dollar store budget, even for its time.

Without a doubt.

"Good bye, son."/"Good bye, Pop."

💙💜

Exactly! That's the part I always remember.

I remember when Gig Young so wistfully jumped onto the carousel. It’s ingrained in my brain with this music.

This is going to sound pretentious but when I think about the 1950s through the early 60s, BH is one of the people that defines this time period, for me.

Everything around Serling was fantastic and beautiful at the same time. The performances, the stories, the music. Every part of TTZ is a work of art in itself. Unrepeatable timeless creation.

i.postimg.cc/hPRfGhpQ/IMG.jpg Thanks for your comments of appreciation.

@James Daniel: I will always remember Gig Young by this episode of The Twilight Zone. Alcoholism is a very serious illness. You probably know that. It can change a person to something completely different and obviously destroy one’s life.

Herrmann wrote original scores for 7 twilight zone episodes..out of these 7 scores the music ended up in several other episodes as well as other TV shows of the day

Very nice essay. Thank you! Rod Serling would have been deeply touched if he were alive today to read it.

For me, the soundtrack is at least half of the movie or show. -- if not more.

@@lilybond6485 Yes that is true. Music really enhances and conveys the mood and feelings the writer/director wants the audience to feel. It transcends the limitation of our language.

His music accomplishes the otherwise impossible

What you're hearing is what's called in music theory a Circle of Fifths. It's a very natural progression to one's ear. Essentially, it's a relationship between notes based on both acoustical and mathematical calculi (the former can be heard, the latter is a bit more complicated to explain). A famous example often taught in music theory classes is Dido's Lament, from Dido and Aeneas, the opera by British composer Henry Purcell. Go about a minute in here: kzfaq.info/get/bejne/n86oi5CkmtPZYIE.html. You can certainly find theoretical explanations by Googling the term "Circle of Fifths." Bernard Hermann, one of film's most iconic composers, uses it beautifully here (if you watch the scene where it's employed). It's pretty remarkable what he was able to do with the limited resources available to him (and "The Twilight Zone" in general), but with a small string section and a harp (an instrument he loved), he creates one of the best scores in 'the program's history.

Listen at 2:37..the high harmonic strings countered with soothing low basses takes me into the netherworld..I really love the drugstore and memories cues

@@maimzini That's not a circle of fifths. It's a descending chromatic ground bass/passacaglia.

@@maimzini Yeah, that's not at all a circle of fifths, lmao. You talk all big and intelligent, but it's completely false.

Well, for what it’s worth Bruce I appreciate your interesting comment.

Very true! Great way to put it! Walking Distance....

@@JohnPiperBoots 🙂

I like the harp sound starting at 5:53

I like "The Drugstore" 0:47 all the way through "Memories" such mysteriousness

No, but we can guess why Serling used the third name in this list: Track shot closer on Martin as he calls off the names of the houses. MARTIN: Van Buren. Wilcox. (Then looking across the street) Over there Dr. Bradbury. Mulroony.

@Thomas Vasiloff: I remember seeing this as a pre-adolescent - the original showing. I remember thinking “How sad. It must be horrible to be that old and longing for your wonderful childhood -- but that would never be me” -- and now it IS me. I never thought I ever would be watching this video and feeling just like Martin Sloan -- but I am and thinking right back to the moment I thought that.

@John Piper: I completely agree with your comment -- but I don’t think that we will ever go or get back to what the USA once was. It feels like it is too late. By the time 2024 is here -- the Biden administration will have done way too much damage and change to ever go back. People pouring into the country -- over one and a half million that we have no idea who they are, where they are, or where they are from and some that have been caught already are known terrorists. High ranking military men and former military men have stated during an interview that it we are going to have another attack like 911 and it will be bigger and worse than that. No - I am sad to think that former America is gone forever and things are going to get a lot worse. Stay safe. It makes me very sad.

I enjoyed your comment.

@@lilybond6485 Thank you! This definitely ranked as one of the best episodes in the series. I’ve worked at many public service jobs as a tour guide, sales associate,etc. but because of my interest in carousels I was an employee at 5 different ones including the huge antique wood 1908 carousel in Central Park,NYC. When you look at the art, music and history of carousels and how they’re such an oasis and subjective experience for each person, you’ll really come to appreciate the uniqueness of carousels.

Anthony Simpson anygoround: That 1908 carousel in Central Park must have been a beautiful sight to see. I can think back to my childhood in New Orleans riding on the carousel at the lakefront (Lake Pontchartrain) in the sweltering heat of summer. The breeze on my face and hair. I can clearly see my mother standing there holding my cotton candy. It was so hot and humid -- that when the ride ended - my cotton candy was literally melting small red droplets -- but it tasted even more delicious that way.

@@lilybond6485 That’s a great memory about the cotton candy. The manager Sal Napolitano at Central Park Carousel was also the concessionaire, and sometimes in later years had to work with others who were the concessionaire, but was in charge most of the time and remained on-site for over 40 yrs mostly due to his knowledge of the carousel’s mechanism, etc. He also was enterprising in a vast choice of souvenirs and refreshments to be put nearby including a cotton candy machine on a cart unit which he built most likely with his dad who had been a carpenter. I did lots of duties at the carousel but didn’t get too involved with the treats or souvenirs, but my girl friend at the time, now my spouse, did an illustration which was used on some of the souvenirs. Anyway, your story reminded me … I remember the cotton candy (spun sugar) was in traditional pink or turquoise blue, colors normally so sweet and not found in nature! Anyway, your story was certainly sweet.🎪🎠

@@lilybond6485 Hey, I just realized that your name Lily has sort of an unusual connection -or I should say “bond” with carousels! The Rodgers and Hammerstein 1945 show “Carousel” which initially inspired me to be interested in the rides and working at them, was based on Hungarian Ferenc Molnar’s 1921 dramatic fantasy play “Liliom” which when translated means “Lily”! The main character is a roughneck of an antihero but the flower’s name is given to him as sort of an ironic nickname, plus there are several symbolic references to flowers and nature elements throughout the play itself. You may already be familiar at least with “Carousel” which certainly had some of the most beautiful music ever written.🎪🎠

This was a high-caliber or high drawer episode so it deserved extra attention, so not a typical approach for Herrmann, altho he did his best for most of his projects since he had excellent dramatic instincts!

@@JohnPiperBoots "Second Chance" in Season 1

Fahrenheit 451? I surmise ...

@@enriquesanchez2001 Lol , , , IV-V-I ish perhaps

Fahrenheit 451 - a 1966 film directed by François Truffaut based on the 1953 novel of the same name by Ray Bradbury. Music by Bernard Herrmann. There is definitely a “sound” of BH scores and that brings a smile to his fans. You can hear it from his borrowers and imitators also. The highly stylized TV streaming show “Ratched” is a recent example.

Its the orchestration..this is strings, harps, celeste..451 is strings, harp, Celeste, vibraphone, glocks

you must have some amazing ear and knowledge of music. Kudos.

Who knows. There's so many little things that affect the decisions a composer makes when notating. In the context of the rest of the parts, the rest of the piece... it just made more sense for him to notate it like that. There's no key signature, but let's say, hypothetically, he's thinking in Eb minor... There's a diatonic Ab and a Cb. So it would be way easier to read if he puts a flat on F as well. Imagine if he put a flat on A and C but put a natural on Eb... it'd be much more confusing. But, again, who knows what his real reason was...

I personally had it xeroxed back in 1989 when the CBS Papers at UCLA were first available. After that year, UCLA changed their policy not to allow photocopying....

@John Piper: In all seriousness - your comment made me tear up. I remember all of those things. I was fortunate to grow up in a middle class neighborhood where all of the parents looked out for all of the kids. - and all good kids I must say. I loved those cap guns -- it was like a roll of a red paper strip with little darker circles of what I assume was gun powder. Playing cowboys and Indians in our huge fenced in back yard with lots of trees. When we get tired of playing cowboys and Indians - we’d start climbing the trees -- and also in the sweltering heat of the south, one of our neighbors put in a swimming pool. I remember diving into that pale blue green water when the temperature outside was so incredibly hot. It was to me the greatest feeling in the world. I was a tomboy. Drove my brother nuts trying to hang out with him and his friends. We’d end up playing games where they would tie me to a chair or a tree and then they would disappear. I fell for it every time. 😂

That Biden speech last night was appalling. Biggest liar and evil man. In my opinion.

​@@lilybond6485 Hi Lily 🙂I do not think we were neighbors, although the many similar memories would make you think so. If you lived in the city where Griffiss Air Force was, or one of the playgrounds called "Pinti field", or elementart school "Hatvey E. Alter" then absolutely. LOL I think the things we mentioned were very common nation-wide. Yes we had a tree fort in the trees behind the apartments. I remember the tv station identification signing off - old glory flag flapping proudly on screen and national anthem audio PROUDLY played. Indeed. Real pride to be American. WOW! Thankyou for mentioning your distant cousin Shelley Fabares - small world after all. Since her heart touchjng song came out in 1961, my dear late mother and now late oldest sister always called me "Johnny Angel" after Shelley's beautiful song! So happy to express this, if not directly to Shelley but thru the bloodline - you. Hahah. Thanks for sharing this. 😇😇😇 Yes, the Biden speech was a display of a Soviet Stalinistic Projection on we the people: (Republicans, Conservatives, MAGA Patriots). We will overturn the House and Senate in Nov. Trump was in PA rally Saturday on NewsMax - register free on smart tv or your cell phone. Also get on Trump's social media site called truthsocial it is free! WALKING DISTANCE - Interesting facts!!!! Jodi Serling said in a 2019 interview with SyFy Wire that "Walking Distance" was her father's favorite episode of the show because it was "a very personal story for him" and there were "pieces of him in it". Serling stated it was her favorite episode as well due to her father's connection to it, further saying: "My father every summer would take a ride from our place on Cayuga Lake, which is in Ithaca, and he would ride an hour to Binghamton, New York, and revisit his hometown. It was like his private journey of seeing his old house. It's still there on Bennett Ave., going on the merry-go-round - which isn't the same merry-go-round - and walking the streets as he did when he played marbles with his friends. That episode is so nostalgic [for me] because it's so much about my dad, I can't help but see him."[3] I feel the same for sure and glad Jodi shared this! Take care .....be well... stay informed ... do your part #House2022 #Senate2022 #Trump2024 we PATRIOTS fight to win! Semper Fi #USMC 👍👍👍👍👍😎
