Movie Reviews of Judy Garland Live at the London Palladium with Liza Minnelli
Movie Review: "With Judy and Liza You Can't Get Any Better!"
Summary: 5 Stars
Probably the last great piece of work of Judy Garland's life caught on tape before her death, "Judy Garland...Live at the Palladium with Liza Minnelli" is a DVD everyone who loves music should own. Not only do you get two fabulous entertainer's together, but the music is ageless and enthralling.
Recorded on November 16th, 1964 in London, England, the DVD features the mother/daughter duo of Judy and Liza and shows not only are they two of the greatest singers, but it shows the love they have for one another. Liza was only 18 when this was filmed, but she performs like a complete pro, while Judy shows she still has the pipes and the presence. Liza looks amazing with the black hair parted at the side, and I have to say I really like seeing her pre-"Cabaret" look. However, you can tell Judy has aged. She was only in her early forties, but obviously having her variety show on CBS cancelled just eight months before really took its toll on her. Nevertheless, she proves she's still the entertainer everyone loves. I love her wittiness and banter with Liza and the audience, and she especially loves it when the fans help her sing "Over the Rainbow". Watch Liza's expression as she watches her mother perform this song. There is absolute love in her eyes for her beloved "Mama".
The DVD features songs with both Judy and Liza together, as well as solos. The best performance I think is the first number Judy does to open the concert, "Just Once in a Lifetime". It gives me chills whenever I watch this. Other great songs covered are "Just in Time", "Hello, Dolly', "The Man that Got Away", "San Francisco", and "The Music that Makes Me Dance". You get 12 full songs along with 2 great medleys. You will watch this over and over.
The quality of the material looks aged as the producers didn't clean the original print, but once you get into the concert your eyes will be fixated on these two legendary performers. You will not be sorry you bought this DVD.
Summary of Judy Garland Live at the London Palladium with Liza Minnelli
Studio: Kultur Release Date: 11/19/2002 Run time: 55 minutesThe novelty of Judy Garland: Live at the London Palladium is the spectacle of the great entertainer sharing the stage with her up-and-coming daughter. In November 1964 Liza Minnelli was not yet 20 and not yet a Broadway success. She looks it: the coltish, appealingly gawky girl is still pretty raw (at one point after a costume change she yanks off her earrings just before launching into a song), and Garland seems alternately proud of and bemused by her. The video is pretty raw, too, a rough black-and-white affair that can best be described as serviceable in quality. However, fans of this brand of showbiz razzmatazz will be satisfied with the duets between the women (especially trading verses on a medley of "Happy Days Are Here Again" and "Get Happy"). Judy opens the show with the reliable chest sweller "Once in a Lifetime" (no relation to the Talking Heads tune) and delivers a tutorial in song dynamics with "The Man That Got Away." She appears rather shrunken and tired but still comes on like a trouper, fending off the audience's constant heckling for "Over the Rainbow" (as though she might forget it?) before finally handing the song back to them as a touching sing-along. This was Garland's last appearance at the Palladium. It's also a passing of the torch to Liza, who would later become the kind of polished dynamo embodied by her mother, more than capable of holding down her own one-woman shows. --Robert Horton
