Of interest only to die-hard Garland fans. The story is a mish-mash between "42nd Street" and the Andy Hardy series. The musical numbers--with the exception of the finale--filmed as an afterthought--completely forgettable. I don't wish to be mean here, because I love MGM musicals, and in particular Judy Garland musicals, but this picture is nowhere up to the standard of what MGM was making at the time, nor what Garland would become in her signature musicals. I've watched this picture twice now, so I don't think I can attribute these comments to a bad evening. Let's just say, Miss Garland and the MGM musical wwnt on to legendary triumphs past this film.
