@@jonathannocon Movie studios and modeling agencies in those days had rather rigid standards of beauty, according to which, Judy's forehead was too big, her eyes were too wide apart, her nose was too button, and she had a gap in her teeth. The teeth were an easy fix; in fact, Mervyn LeRoy paid for the procedure out of his own pocket. As for the rest, audiences thought Judy was lovely, and MGM make-up artists learned to work with her features as they were.

I saw Judy’s early Oz makeup before director Victor Fleming made changes to then Judy’s makeup to what we would all come to know it as in the final cut, and she definitely had the looks department there also. Too much so that they had to dumb it down to make her look “younger & poorer” to suite Dorothy’s back story accordingly. Judy was a young, very talented and had all the trademarks of a super star that there were no doubt ppl in that field that were threatened by her rather quick success. Hence calling her ‘not pretty enough’ and so forth to subtlety stab her in her back which I’d imagine is the norm socialite(s) behaviour(s) & high society Hollywood at that era. Especially in the entertainment biz afaik.

This is my second-favorite rendition of "Somewhere Over the Rainbow" -- second only to the original movie version Judy sang in 1939's Wizard of Oz. Other artists have covered this song, but even the best of them can't surpass Judy when it comes to this song. In the movie version, Judy gave a softer, sweeter, more idealistic wistful performance with a comparatively muted delivery. In this video of Judy as a young adult entertaining for the WW II troops on a radio broadcast, she looks troubled as if something in her life is bothering her ... yet like a pro, she belts out a full-throated, no-holds-barred and more "dramatic" performance than in the movie, and she shows off the easy POWER of her voice. I'm glad both versions are preserved on film -- especially after her hard life wrecked her voice and she died far too young.

Baum had many set-backs in his life in the 19th century world he was born into. He was actually scared by a scarecrow he happened upon while playing as a boy near the home in the middle of NY State. It obviously stuck with him. He wrote & produced plays in play houses his father financed, which eventually went bust. He married Maud Gauge against her mother's wishes in the 1880's, then moved to Aberdeen, Dakota territory. His stories reflected life around him. Droughts & all. Many farmers there went bust during the industrial age's beginning by the time he got there though. He opened a store selling luxury goods anyway. They were in hock for everything they owned. The store was forced to close in the 1890's. He then bought & renamed a local newspaper that he illustrated. He wrote about a tornado that picked up a house & dropped it 2 miles away. So here you can see Dorothy's house winding up in Oz. Dorothy was based on the women of the high plains he'd known & see struggling to survive in the Dakota territory. Many people left the Aberdeen area from mortgage losses & an Indian uprising that never happened. His newspaper then slowly failed. His health began to fail from all the travel & working at so many things to, " make it". He then was basically forced to turn to writing. His many stories of Oz tried to show that dreams can come true. But, in life, they surely didn't.

Becky C...I think that Judy was certainly one of the very top female singers of her era, no doubt. And yes, Hollywood SHOULD be ashamed with how they destroyed Judy Garland; as well as many, many other great talents, but to be ashamed requires a conscience and Hollywood does not have one.

I was born in 1957. I’ve been a fan of hers for literally decades, ever since I first saw The Wizard of Oz. She died way too young. Only 46. Those drugs they put her on before they ever knew of the dangers of uppers and downers took their toll over the decades. It still saddens me so much. She is one of my top five favorite singers of all time. In fact, I’d put her at the very top. She was my very first favorite. I mean, WHAT A VOICE. I loved singing this song in the shower when I was younger. I can sing, too. But not like she did. But then again, she’s one-of-a-kind in my book.

To be sure! In 1950 she played Dorothy again on the Lux Radio Theater's adaptation of _The Wizard of Oz._ It's really interesting to listen to; when she speaks, she sounds just like she did in the movie, but when she sings, her voice is fuller and richer. 🙂
