America the Beautiful is a 2007 American documentary film directed by Darryl Roberts about self-image in the United States. The film had a limited release on August 1, 2008.
Bates originally wrote the words as a poem, "Pikes Peak", first published in the Fourth of July edition of the church periodical The Congregationalist in 1895. At that time, the poem was titled "America" for publication.
Ward had originally written the music, "Materna", for the hymn "O Mother dear, Jerusalem" in 1882, though it was not first published until 1892. Ward's music combined with the Bates poem was first published in 1910 and titled America the Beautiful.
The song is one of the most popular of the many American patriotic songs.
History
In 1893, at the age of 33, Bates, an English professor at Wellesley College, had taken a train trip to Colorado Springs, Colorado, to teach a short summer school session at Colorado College. Several of the sights on her trip inspired her, and they found their way into her poem, including the World's Columbian Exposition in Chicago, the "White City" with its promise of the future contained within its alabaster buildings; the wheat fields of America's heartland Kansas, through which her train was riding on July 16; and the majestic view of the Great Plains from high atop Zebulon's Pikes Peak.
America the Beautiful was a circle-vision movie attraction in Disneyland In California and Walt Disney World in Florida. The footage first shot in 1955 and ran in Disney Circle-Vision 360 film theaters.
Circle-Vision 360 is a film technique that uses multiple cameras arranged in a circle. The viewing image is displayed on a large circular screen. The film's rendition of the title song would later be used in Great Moments with Mr. Lincoln.
In a society where "celebutantes" like Paris Hilton dominate newsstands and models who weigh less than 90 pounds die from malnutrition, female body image is one of the more dire problems facing today's society. "America the Beautiful" illuminates the issue by covering every base. Child models, plastic surgery, celebrity worship, airbrushed advertising, dangerous cosmetics - no rock is left unturned.

AMERICA THE BEAUTIFUL 1945 WORLD WAR II PATRIOTIC FILM 70934
Created in 1945 by the Warner Bros. Studio to sell U.S. Savings Bonds, “America the Beautiful” opens to the patriotic strains of the song of the same name. The film paints a picture of the United States as an industrious society on the move. Shot in Technicolor and directed by six-time Academy Award-winner Gordon Hollingshead, the film begins at mark 00:35 “on your front door, on the street where you live” and spans the American continent through the ranches and farms of the West and the National Parks, to the bustling cities of the East including the metropolis of New York. Wherever the view calls home, the narrator explains at mark 01:25, they arrived there via “paths enchanted that lead to the wonderful pages of a storybook, filled with a glorious living picture that tell the story of A...

Wherever the view calls home, the narrator explains at mark 01:25, they arrived there via “paths enchanted that lead to the wonderful pages of a storybook, filled with a glorious living picture that tell the story of America the beautiful.”
With a view of the sprawling landscape of North Dakota (at mark 01:38), the narrator wonders if a farmer fantasizes about watching the ocean (even though his already in the middle of an ocean “of amber grain”). The same is wondered of the fishermen on the coasts of Maine (shown at mark 02:18), and whether they would want to change their surroundings, or of the lumberjacks in the Pacific Northwest (shown at mark 02:36). Following the philosophizing, the film visits Pike’s Peak, Mount Hood, Mount Whitney, all starting at mark 03:11, before traveling a mere 80 miles to Death Valley at mark 03:45. Scenic views of rivers (Wabash, Tennessee, Columbia, Ohio, Mississippi) follow, as does views of the Great Lakes starting at mark 05:40, “inland oceans” that serve as passageways for the transport of wheat, iron, copper, lumber, and other materials. From views of the Pacific Ocean from San Francisco (shown at mark 06:25) to scenic national parks such as Yellowstone and Old Faithful Geyser (mark 08:27), the film continues to take its viewer to places such as Niagara Falls, Bryce Canyon, Carlsbad Caverns, and the Rocky Mountains. “America the beautiful goes on and on and on being beautiful,” says the narrator at mark 11:56.
America is filled with other wonders, the viewer is told, such as magnificent skyscrapers (“steel and stone rising high in the sky”), as well as mills, factories, ranches, and orchards. “In every part of America you’ll find ‘beautiful’ defined differently,” it is said at mark 14:44. That includes sun-worshippers and entertainment-seekers at Coney Island, shown at mark 15:23, as throngs of people crowd the beach and ride the ride. No matter where you may call home, the narrator reminds us that we are all Americans, as the Statue of Liberty is shown at mark 15:47.
To keep America great, the narrator explains in conclusion, all Americans must continue to produce as well as conserve, “and share our blessings with those who need and deserve them.” And citizens must save regularly … including the purchase of United States Savings Bonds … “the safest investment on Earth.”
