JUDY GARLAND "GET HAPPY" (SUMMER STOCK, 1950)
BackJUDY GARLAND "GET HAPPY" Though it's called Summer Stock, this marvelous "let's put on a show" musical - the final one that showcased the peerless pair of Judy Garland and Gene Kelly - is a delight for all seasons. The story is simple: a homespun farm family allows a Broadway production company to rehearse its new show on their property - if the performers "pay" their way by pitching in with all the farm chores! But the pleasures are abundant: a show-stopping, all-star "Battle of the Dances" that starts out as a square dance and blossoms into a cavalcade of high-stepping dance favorites; Kelly's marvelous song and later dance to "You, Wonderful You;" four of the most popular comedic screen actors ever: Phil Silvers, Eddie Bracken, Hans Conried and Marjorie Main; and Garland's incomparable "Get Happy," a smashing sequence that's one of her peak movie moments.

What a job it must have been to stage that number. I wonder how many days it took?

Didn't the cut this scene out of the original movie or something? But the look and song was used in her show. The outfit became her iconic-ish look. I thought I said something like that on AMC. I'm not sure but I could have swarn but then my memory sucks... ._.;

I loved her so much, when she died it was like getting punched in the stomach by king kong. I still miss here, but thank God she still lives through film, video and recordings! She was a great talent and a beautiful person.
