American Masters: Gene Kelly: Anatomy of a Dancer (2002)
AWESOME!
I am a huge Kelly fan, and this is a superb documentary! Featuring clips from most of his films and all of them being re-mastered makes this documentary great! There are stories and comments from his co-workers and family such as Betsy Blair, Leslie Caron, Debbie Reynolds, Kerry Kelly Novick (his oldest daughter), Tim Kelly (son), and many others. The only problem is that I wish it were longer!
10/10!
Love Finds Andy Hardy (1938)
MICK AND JOOTS!
Mick and Joots 2nd film together is probably one of their best. Again, Judy plays the girl-next-door-who-doesn't-get-the-guy role. Judy is very pretty in this movie (well, in most of her movies, she was stunning!). Mickey Rooney gives a super performance (as usual) as Andy Hardy. Joots sings 3 songs, Mickey and Lana Turner wear bathing suits, good story, good plot!
10/10
Everybody Sing (1938)
Good Judy movie!
This is very fun Judy Garland movie before "Oz". It's neat to see Judy in so much trouble! I enjoyed seeing Billie Burke in this before she became immortalized as Glinda in "Oz" also. All the actors give fine performances, and it's a rare treat for Fanny Brice to be in this film. She is hilarious as the Russian maid. Judy steals every scene she's in! Allan Jones also was superb. I am a big Judy Garland fan, so this might seem biased! Sure, the Baby Snooks number might seem a little corny, but overall, I give this 9/10, because I wanted it longer!
One Against the Wind (1991)
GREAT JUDY DAVIS MOVIE!
I'm a huge Judy Davis fan, so this may be biased. Anyway, this was my 2nd glimpse into the magnificent works of the great and talented Judy Davis (my first was "Life With Judy Garland" which was even better!). The way she portrays this woman is more than words can say. I love how she usually portrays women who are very spirited in what they do. The chemistry between Sam Neill and Judy Davis is wonderful, too! This was their 2nd movie together. Anyway, I'd give this 10/10!
