DVD Review: JUDY AND MICKEY
Summary: 5 Stars
The Mickey Rooney & Judy Garland Collection (Babes in Arms / Babes on Broadway / Girl Crazy / Strike Up the Band)
Wonderful, wonderful..but did anyone notice that several of the songs on the Judy Garland song selection dvd are slightly out of synch? This is really apparent in Everybody Sing and is distracting. Except for this...bravo. Warner Bros. is the best. Thank you George F.
DVD Review: Top Quality Package
Summary: 5 Stars
The glory that was Judy Garland falls in two camps. I have always been a devoted fan of the latter one which I felt began in the early sixties ('I Could Go On Singing' and 'The Judy Garland Show')and extended until the time of her passing. How ironic that "A Star is Born" took on a deeper meaning for me as it was a pivotal film where she was figuratively born into lasting greatness as a chanteuse who has been considered by notables as the best in the business. This being said, a nagging curiosity regarding a reflection of her early films, especially those with Mickey Rooney, deliciously iced with the songs of the great Broadway composers, never left me. Although I have been witness to many of her biographical documentaries, I knew I had best see her early films in order to better understand their influence as to how her talents were polished as the young performer grew into the star whose light does not seem to diminish with the passage of time.
The quality of the DVDs are excellent as are the selection of Mickey and Judy films. I also enjoyed a small booklet of very attractive photographs which were an added attraction in the box set. Each movie offered its own selection of special features among which I found the dialogue of Mickey Rooney's career most enlightening.
Do I recommend this box set? Yes, if you have the same curiosity as to the history of Judy Garland as these films do reflect well the times in which she lived even though they are regarded as fairy tale stories.
DVD Review: Love the classics
Summary: 4 Stars
The Mickey Rooney & Judy Garland Collection (Babes in Arms / Babes on Broadway / Girl Crazy / Strike Up the Band)
The movies in this collection are a reminder of the outstanding talent of Mickey Rooney and the amazing voice of Judy Garland. If you are looking for light-hearted entertainment, good music, a happy ending and a delightful duo - this collection will be worth the purchase. Keep in mind, the movies are in black and white, but this shouldn't distract from the fun.
DVD Review: Garlan and Rooney were wonderful.
Summary: 5 Stars
Yes, Garland and Rooney were wonderful. The plots of these films are a little trite and boring, but who cares?. Here are "La Conga", "Hoe down" and "I got Rythm", with Busby Berkeley at his very best, and a lot of marvelosus songs by Judy Garland twenty years old and at her peak: "Nobody", "But no for me", "How about you?", "Our love affair", "Embraceable you", "I cried for you", "Strike up the band", etc. Someone greater than her in the american show bussiness?DVD Review: ONE OF THE BEST BOXES PUBLISHED UNTIL NOW
Summary: 5 Stars
If you love old musical films, and Rooney and Garland you MUST BY this box.
It is much more that the 4 films included.
It is a digitally miracle, not only by the quality of the films but also by the extras included and the fabulous conception of the box.
