About Meet Me In St. Louis (1944):
Divided into a series of seasonal vignettes, starting with Summer 1903, it relates the story of a year in the life of the Smith family in St. Louis, leading up to the opening of the Louisiana Purchase Exposition (more commonly referred to as the World's Fair) in the spring of 1904.
The movie was adapted by Irving Brecher and Fred F. Finklehoffe from a series of short stories by Sally Benson, originally published in The New Yorker magazine under the title "5135 Kensington", and later in novel form as Meet Me in St. Louis. The film was directed by Vincente Minnelli, who met Garland on the set and later married her.
Directed By Vincente Minnelli
Starring Judy Garland, Margaret O'Brien, Mary Astor

    One of the posters/advertisements for "St. Louis" even displayed, "Lovely Judy Garland, More Beautiful Than Ever." The notion that Judy was unattractive or plain was started by Judy herself after her film career, one of her ways to attract sympathy. Audiences thought no such thing then, but now, half a century after Judy's been gone, you can post anything about her, and before you know it, it becomes fact.

    @@akrenwinkle unfortunately no, you’re wrong. Quite wrong. It wasn’t audiences who thought she was unattractive. It was the studio. They nicknamed her a “hunchback”, forced her into extreme diets from a young age (around 14 probably), and forced her to smoke 80 cigarettes a day to curb her appetite. They called her the “ugly duckling”. She was surrounded by women who were given the “beautiful love interest” roles, while she was constantly demoted to “girl next door” or “cutesy”. The idea that she was not attractive was forced upon her from a very, very young age. She did one film where she was presented as a beautiful grown up woman, and audiences didn’t like it. You think it was a lot for sympathy? I’m sure her lifelong struggles as a result of her abuse was sympathy-seeking too? Her drug addictions, alcoholism, failed marriages? How about her DEATH before she turned 50? She just wanted sympathy right? Grow up.

    Judy came of age at MGM in the time of Lana Turner and Hedy Lamarr, meaning the other worldly goddess beauties. Judy was beautiful but she was always a very real girl. She couldn't be as beautiful as Lana Turner but then again no one could be as beautiful as Lana Turner, not even Lana Turner. It was an unrealistic standard Judy was held up to and punished when she couldn't achieve it. The whole perception of her beauty is yet another way in which the star system fucked her over.

And also made people follow her home to make sure she followed an extremely restrictive diet of coffee, broth soup and cigarettes to restrict her hunger while also body shaming her on set giving her extreme body issues for the rest of her life. Her mother going along with it not doing much if anything to help her, forcing her to do a number of things she didn’t want to do yet was made to anyway. So yeah, I’d say she wasn’t the most pampered Hollywood star

    I love this movie. My nana is 89, Alzheimer’s and dementia. She doesn’t do much and the only thing that brings her to life are her movies. Meet me in St. Louis and ShowBoat are the two we play over and over for her. Watching this clip I realize now this will forever bring me to me my beautiful and sweet little nana sitting on the couch, suddenly lit up and almost back to life- singing at the top of lungs with her impressive tone and notes right along with Miss Judy. She is always so happy singing to this one especially. I guess it’s a magical scene for us all. It brings to life something we all have surely felt at some point in some way. That nostalgic feel of heaven on earth when the one that makes us dream at night finally noticed us or finally saw us- the flutter of the heart, the happiness- the feel of soaring- Ahhh It is definitely magical. I like to think when singing this song my nana pictures my grandpa when they were young and first really met ❤️❤️

    I have a similar experience with my grandpa, he had dementia for 2 years, but the last 7 months he lived with us, he loved old country music so we played old country music on the TV, songs like elvira from the oak ridge boys, a lot of johnny cash, Linda ronstadt, all this music is imprinted in my head forever now, but one song, Corrina Corrina by Ray Peterson was his favorite song as he told me before he got dementia, he named my mom after it, and every now and again, me, my mom, and grandpa would listen to it, and he would try to sing along but he couldn't. Itll be 3 years since his death on june 15th, I still listen to all those songs, especially corrina corrina, on a regular basis, it takes me back to when he played it on his guitar as a child for me and my brother.

    It might not have been filmed in one take, but from 1:14 to 3:10 it was.

Today's movies are nothing like that, full of crazy cuts and angles. Old Hollywood was amazing, even if on the other hand it ended up with so many wonderful artists like Judy herself.

    I really hope people see this comment! I recently saw this movie with my best friend and let me tell you the goosebumps We had watching this film, though a tad outdated, Judy’s voice is completely timeless. We were so mesmerized by the her presence, the perfect 1940’s harmonies, and the color that popped out with technicolor so we were glued to our seats and wouldn’t even move for refills. Also cause those reclining chairs they recently added were super comfy! It’s a must watch to see on the big screen, you wouldn’t believe how much I was lost with words trying to describe how great it was!
