This clip is one of many A+ Judy & Mickey film scenes. I see others here wishing Judy & Mickey had gotten together as a couple in real life. They remained close friends. Judy wanted more but not Mickey. He could NOT have done her a bigger favor. Neither was good at marriage. Mickey could not remain faithful and struggled with gambling and substance addiction. Judy also was an addict and emotionally insecure. Romance/marriage would not have ended well.
These two together the best moment of Joy~ how can she not be here~ She will always live within me within all who feel the Joy of her and his exuberance BaaBanede!! Both he & she together One Love One Joyful Light We are One Awakening Multidimensional Heart 💖
JG complained to a friend during filming that the crew would wolf-whistle when Lana walked by, would stare in awe when Hedy walked by, but would say "Hi Judy" when she walked by.
I am CRAZY for this number with Baayork Lee, Margo Sappington and Donna McKechnie dancing it. That blew the roof off of the place. How would like to have been at the invited dress and see that? Michael Bennett outdid himself on that number. Someone below said (so perfectly) that it's what you think you look like in your head when you're drunk at an office party--but these three goddesses ARE that good in this number! Baayork is adorable and a ball of energy. Margo is so charismatic and charming that you want to eat her with a spoon (plus her hair at the end of the number!). And Donna McKechnie is the most brilliant Broadway dancer I've ever seen dance in my life. I can hardly take my eyes off of her when she dances. I don't know why that is, but seems to complete every move she's given and completes it with such style and flair. Plus always looked like a woman dancing--even when she was a young woman, and never a girl. And Michael Bennett's building a number with solos, trios, full company. He and Bob Avian surely knew how to craft a number to thrill an audience. I LOVE when the full company crosses center stage towards the end of the number. So grateful this is out in the world for others to see.
What a smart observation about McKechnie! I just saw this for the first time since I saw the number broadcast live at a Tony party in '69. Didn't see the show. But I did see her in Company a year or two later. And then, of course, in A Chorus Line.
To this day. I regret not going to see this in NYC. instead i thought i've NEVER seen a baseball game so went to see that. My god the most boring and LONG night of my life -_-
The girl in the green dress! HOLY SHIT 😮 she's not just fast but the sharpest one on stage. Every limb has a start and stop position. It's truly astonishing. I used to dance for years but never saw someone that capable at this SPEED!!!!
Judy Garland was born to be a singer. Despite her tragic private life, her career as a singer always glittered. Lots of her fans, including me, still love her. She was just like an angel, who sacrificed herself to bring joy and happiness to her fans.
Judy Garland is one of my idols. Wizard Of Oz is one of my all time favorite movies and I watch it 2-3 times a year, and she was also an amazing singer. It’s very sad that MGM and her mother overworked her and treated her so horribly. They would say she was “ugly” and “fat” and she was not that at all. She was very pretty.
