Mickey Rooney & Judy Garland Collection

Format:   DVD 
 
First, Busby Berkeley directs Mickey Rooney and Judy Garland in a rousing rendition of Rodgers and Hart's famed Broadway hit "Babes In Arms" (1939). They're children of vaudevillians who, after not being allowed to join in their parents' performance, start their own show. Songs include "Where or When," "Good Morning." Next, Mick and Judy's high school band is out to nab an award in Paul Whiteman's national radio contest, in "Strike Up The Band" (1940). Songs include "Our Love Affair," "Nell of New Rochelle." Rooney and Garland are together again in "Babes On Broadway" (1941), and this time they're out to put on a show on the Great White Way. Look for Donna Reed, Margaret O'Brien. Includes the title tune, "(I Like New York in June) How About You." And, Rooney is sent to a small private school to mend his "Girl Crazy" (1943) ways. But once he sees Garland, it's love at first sight in this musical-comedy based on the Gershwin Broadway hit. With June Allyson, Tommy Dorsey and His Orchestra. Classic Gershwin score includes "Embraceable You," "But Not for Me." Five-disc set also includes a disc loaded with extras, photo cards, and a booklet. 7 1/4 hrs. total. Standard; Soundtrack: English Dolby Digital mono.
