5.0 out of 5 stars Some Background for Two of These Songs, December 29, 2008
This review is from: Great Movie Themes: Ziegfeld Girl / Every Sunday / Meet Me In St. Louis - Original Soundtracks (Audio CD)
A couple songs here are from the short film "Every Sunday" (1936) could be considered the first music video. This was a happy accident resulting from MGM's need to crack out a variety of short films for exhibit with its feature length material. They had a couple fresh young singing talents (Judy Garland and Deanna Durbin) available and essentially slapped together a blend of music styles in a kind of Norman Rockwell concert in the park setting.

Who would have dreamed at the time that they would capture the best collection of images since Eisenstein's "Odessa Steps" sequence.

It's Sunday with some inattentive folks sitting around a small wooden band shell in the park while a tired looking ensemble play Strauss. Events unfold and the next Sunday Judy and Deanna save the day. The operatic Deanna sings "Il Bacio" (The Kiss) and Garland follows with the contrasting "Waltz with a Swing". The climax nicely blends the two styles into a duet of "Americana".

A must see.

Then again, what do I know? I'm only a child.
