Summary: 5 Stars
Seven all-time classic movies starring Judy Garland, one of the most talented individuals ever to walk this earth. This box-set will provide endless entertainment and also illustrate just how prolific and versatile Ms Garland was during her glory-days with MGM.
In chronological order -
LOVE FINDS ANDY HARDY (1938):
When he needs to raise the extra $8 for his dream car, Andy (Mickey Rooney) agrees to take his friend's demanding, red-headed girlfriend Cynthia (Lana Turner) to the annual Christmas dance. Trouble is, he's more or less promised to take good ole Polly Benedict (Ann Rutherford) too! And when bright-eyed Betsy Booth (Judy Garland) starts swooning as well, poor Andy begins to wish that kissing had never been invented... Garland sings three numbers ("In-Between", "It Never Rains But What It Pours" and "Meet the Beat of My Heart").
THE WIZARD OF OZ (1939):
Judy Garland's starmaking movie. Young Kansas farmgirl Dorothy (Garland) is swept over the rainbow and into a land of fantasy and adventure which transforms into a quest to return home. Ray Bolger, Jack Haley and Bert Lahr are Dorothy's faithful companions along the Yellow Brick Road, with Margaret Hamilton as the witchiest witch you'll ever encounter!
ZIEGFELD GIRL (1941):
MGM teamed Garland with two of their resident glamour girls (Lana Turner and Hedy Lamarr) for this sudsy semi-sequel to "The Great Ziegfeld". Judy plays a feisty born-in-a-trunk vaudevilian who aspires to Ziegfeld Follies stardom, but the picture is stolen by Ms Turner's aggressive performance as a showgirl whose own quest for Ziegfeld fame is squandered in favour of booze and pills.
FOR ME AND MY GAL (1942):
Well and truly grown up, Garland shines in a brittle backstage drama which introduced Gene Kelly to movie audiences and established the title song as an immortal classic that would forever remain a staple of Garland's concert repertoire. Gene Kelly and George Murphy compete for the affections of Garland in this wartime favourite.
THE HARVEY GIRLS (1946):
Reunited with her "Wizard of Oz" co-star Ray Bolger, THE HARVEY GIRLS was one of Garland's best films from the mid-40's. Also featuring a young Cyd Charisse and Angela Lansbury as a hard-boiled saloon dame, THE HARVEY GIRLS stars Garland as a reluctant mail-order bride who instead decides to become a waitress for the Harvey Restaurants. The film launched another beloved hit song ("On the Atchison, Topeka and the Santa Fe").
IN THE GOOD OLD SUMMERTIME (1949):
Veronica Fisher (Judy Garland) is the latest employee at the music shop run by Mr Oberkugen (the adorable S.Z. "Cuddles" Sakall), and right from the outset she ruffles the feathers of senior sales assistant Andrew Larkin (Van Johnson). Believing she's out to usurp his position in the store, Andrew decides to give her the cold shoulder. But unbeknowst to Andrew, Veronica is in fact his secret pen-pal. When he discovers her true identity, all manner of complications get in the way before Veronica learns the truth as well... This movie was filmed during one of Garland's most wretched personal periods, yet miraculously none of it appears on screen. Keep your eyes peeled for little Liza Minnelli's screen debut at the end of the film!
A STAR IS BORN (1954):
Judy Garland's star rose once more when she made this musical masterpiece, directed by George Cukor. Produced by her then-husband Sid Luft, this emotionally gripping film starred Garland as singer Esther Blodgett, whose screen success counterpoints with her husband Norman Maine's (James Mason) plunge into oblivion. Cut shortly after it's premiere, the deleted scenes were restored to the movie in the early 80's thanks to the efforts of film historian Ronald Haver. Judy's greatest hour on screen and her last big splash in Hollywood before concentrating her efforts almost exclusively on live performance.
