@gd18cyclist22 4 года назад

What is probably the most tragic is how she was really treated when they filmed Wizard of Oz. Her husband stated that the actors playing the munchkins molested her on set and most of the cast turned their backs on Garland except for Margaret Hamilton aka Wicked Witch (ironic). On top of all of that is that someone from the crew slapped her really hard at one point when she found something to be funny.

@jeniferkenney2984 4 года назад

Where did you read that from?

@thatonepersonobsessedwithm4338 4 года назад

The director slapped her because she kept laughing because of the cowardly lions cries. If you watch the scene you can notice she’s about to laugh. The director got mad so he slapped her but then asked someone to break his nose again because he felt bad for her, and Judy overheard and said “no but I’ll kiss your nose” and kissed his nose.

She definitely was 47. She just looked a lot older because of all of those years spent abusing drugs and alcohol. There's a special place in hell for people like Ethel Gumm and Louis B. Mayer. How a mother can subject her children to something so horrible all for money and fame is just beyond me. And what's worse, is she allowed Mayer to continue abusing Judy like he did with all the other young starlets at MGM at the time. Everyone knew what was going on at that studio and nobody did anything to stop it. Disgusting.

They have similar problems around the world. Like one lady from Korea took her own life, because of the abuse she got and nobody believed her. These directors, actors, that takes advantage of young ladies /girls, should be treated like murderers. So sad!!! Judy looked older than 47, I thought she was in her 60s. (The poor girl who's mama got her hooked on fricken drugs). Like I saw a friend, who's similar age, must've been taking 'P' or something, because he looked 15 years older than me,but we're the same age.

Rocky Dans You‘ve clearly been living under a rock.

Judy Garland is my childhood icon, from about the age of 4-5, after watching 'The Wizard of Oz', and learnt all trivia about her, read multiple books, documentary's, as well as watching a large majority of her filmography. Also having framed photos of her in my University room. Her life had awful obstacles but her life wasn't tragic, she was a fighter, powering through all the showbiz BS, being put onto performance enhancement pills from joining MGM. She crushed every performance through her 15 years in making motion pictures, 100s of radio shows, 1000s of concerts, The first woman to receive the Grammy for 'Album of the Year'. I wish this video was called 'The life of Judy Garland and the implications of Golden Age fame', just sick of people saying "poor her" "so tragic".

Hi Will, I didn't read books, but watched a couple of documentaries. She was iconic, yes, but I do think she deserved so much more in her life, and I think she never had any stability, with family, with marriages, and with life eventually. I think it is tragic how they treated her, and I believe that point that out will hopefully prevent something similar today. I always love to think that Judy is the kind of woman who is brought to this world as a gift to society, but in being that, she suffered a lot. Hope I didn't make you angry with this, it's just my humble opinion, and I'm not discrediting your opinion with it, because she was truly one of a kind.

They made her that way unfortunately. :( They basically starved her to make her really skinny and put her on a diet. I HATE how MGM and her mother did that to her. >:( )

@Anna-im4lv 3 года назад

Her father was the only one she had, and was her inspiration (alongside her children) to carry on. Such a tragic that he died way to early. Just imagine how different and happy Judy would be if her dad was there to support and encourage her. Hollywood didnt deserve judy, they only focus on the *beauties* (lana turner etc) and not the talent at that time. And Judy belittled herself, she was extremely beautiful and talented, she had it all those people only made her think she wasnt

Even after death she was a tragic case. If I remember correctly her body stayed in storage for months because there was no money to bury her. Frank Sinatra ended up paying for it.

It really bothers me on an emotional level what some people have to go through (famous or not), her parents didn't want her, the force of drugs, the abuse and most likely much worse, then tragically dying at 47, can't imagine what her life was like or anyone who had/has to go through this. Can't we just get along

It’s really depressing and unhappy of what Garland went through she was called hurtful words, inappropriate being touched, forced to lose weight, taken a lot of pill(maybe drugs), her mother used her and her sisters for fame and lot of the actors turned their backs on her (exception of Margaret and probably Mickey Rooney)

I’ve seen the film they recently made about her. Learned a lot about her and what she had to deal with... She actually used to be one of my biggest role models, because when I was in first grade, I was in The Wizard of Oz. I played Toto and was the only first grader in a cast of 3rd graders and 12th graders. I loved the musical so much and kept listening to videos of her performances. And just recently when I watched the film, it really took a hold on me, one of my favorite idols from when I was younger had to deal with so many things...

Parents should (obviously) be cognizant of how they treat their children, regardless of whether or not they were intended to be born, especially when they decide to thrust their child into spotlight; from what I've seen, it's not as glamorous as some make it.

@capdown6828 Год назад

I watched the Wizard of Oz for the first time last night and it is automatically one of my favorite movies. Mainly because I found Judy very captivating. Her look and voice are beautiful. I read about her on Wikipedia (didn't tell all of the details from what I've read in these comments), and I slowly became really sad almost to the point of crying here and there. Someone like her deserved better for sure. One takeaway I have from reading up on her is Hollywood has apparently always been full of corrupt and lustful higher-ups. Should've thought so. I just always thought people back then were more dignified and had stronger morals and values. Money and power have always been stronger I guess. Again, should've thought so.
