Presenting Lily Mars

Features: DVD

Editor's Note

Lily Mars, a small town girl (Judy Garland) has a hankering for a real role in a major play, and won't give up until she gets her chance. She keeps after producer Thornway (Van Heflin) until he is too tired to argue, even following him to New York, and he finally gives her a shot. But her real chance comes when she fills in for the leading lady, and she debuts on Broadway.

Features

Presenting Judy Garland! Whether swinging a hot number with Bob Crosby's orchestra or emoting a hilariously hammy version of Lady Macbeth's sleepwalking scene, Judy is a delight as a stage-struck Hoosier in this charming film based on Booth Tarkington's novel. Lily just knows she has the talent to light up the Great White Way, so when a big Broadway producer (Van Heflin) visits her hometown, she expends all the candlepower of her charisma to impress him. He's not impressed. He heads back to New York and Lily follows, thumbing her way east on what she's sure is a one-way trip to instant stardom. At a mere 20 years old, Judy had already reached stardom. Presenting Lily Mars proves why, showcasing her once-in-a-generation voice, gift for comedy and enduring movie magnetism. Break a leg, Lily!
