Judy Garland Roger Edens Rehearsal Me and My Shadows

Thought it would be fun to contrast the JG biopic "Rainbow" with "Me and My Shadows". Similar (and better) rehearsal scene with Roger Edens.

[@garlandgirl10]

When Judy says the "I don't know where that voice comes from" and Roger responds with "It's a gift". Her response of "does that mean it can be taken away?" is so genuine to think that Judy was so fearful that her talent could simply just dissappear and that deep down inside as the legend that we know her as today, we realize that no matter what, she was human just like the rest of us, and all she wanted was to be loved unconditionally.

Dear garlandgirl10, the love of which you speak is what is necessary for each of us to fully express our God-given gifts and abilities. God bless Roger Edens. He had the insight and courage to speak to her and support her like no one else did.

[@DEFinitivelyHis]

Every true creative prodigy needs a Roger Edens in their life. What a moment.

Tammy Blanchard is such a great lipsyncer!

[@lvelez1999]

Yea and she looks so much like Judy at that time

[@aquablue1252]

She is, but she is also a very very talented singer

[@aquablue1252]

Its sad, he was one of the only people who genuinely cared for her beyond her talents, and for who she was, he didnt want her to forget who she really was

[@repent.]

Yeah 😢

[@DoctorHP7]

I cry when I hear her voice

[@Aarenthewriter]

She makes me want to cry but I hold it in

[@305chonga]

wow goose bumps from the real judy garland voice.

[@jessefulton8841]

its so eerie how much she looks like her.

[@biged8290]

Tammy Blanchard is brilliant...this performance still gives me goosebumps.

[@brianeduardo1234]

Terrific performance

[@skreety0455]

Ditto!!!!!!!

[@BlakeGildaphish76]

great casting

[@DoctorHP7]

Nobody likes who I am I think we all can feel like that once in a while

[@ThePearlofeire]

@jennysimply ,the track is obviously perfect as it is because it came from Frances Gumm a.k.a.Judy Garland herself

[@richardmcleod5967]

Ted Lewis popularized "Me and my Shadow" and it continued on as one of his signature songs for his long and prolific career.

[@VeronicaGutierrez-ul2du]

The song is ¨you made me love you¨

[@richardmcleod5967]

The Mona Lisa was only painted once, but there are many imitations.

[@friendsfamilyaccount]

Um...it's the original recording from 1938. Not so much they can do with original mono recordings but clean the track up a bit, which it is.

[@lvelez1999]

Wasnt it 1935?

[@rileyrossi]

@friendsfamilyaccount but fortunately if they do it again, they can use the decca demo tests as a part of it - and everyone can hear how good Judy was before her voice training

[@desufnoc85]

@queensofia123 you really should parts are pretty dark but its an amazing movie

[@DoctorHP7]

Where can I find this song?

[@WillScarlet16]

It's no wonder Judy connected so well with her gay fans when talented gay men like Roger Edens helped her find her voice;

[@jennifer4986]

Me too no one likes who I am no one loves me I live alone and I'm 14. Everybody wants me to be happy all the time but I can't.

[@lvelez1999]

Jesus Loves you, darlin, and He is all that counts.

[@markwhitman9029]

Hyperbole aside, Judy's voice was not of this world and I am not a believer!

[@jennifer4986]

Just kidding I'm Not 14

[@Andy91701]

i never liked rainbow
