Movie Reviews of Ziegfeld Girl
Movie Review: They Stepped Out of a Dream
Summary: 3 Stars
An intriguing, albeit somewhat superficial, look at the lives of three young women destined for stardom in the Ziegfeld Follies. While gorgeous Hedy LaMarr is merely decorative, the radiant young Judy Garland is marvelous in numbers like "Minnie From Trinidad" and "I'm Always Chasing Rainbows", and Lana Turner is a revelation as the spoiled beauty who succumbs to the darker side of stardom. Unfortunately, James Stewart is wasted in this film and does not pair well with Turner. This aside, the MGM glamour is spectacular, with stunning costumes by Adrian and set design by Cedric Gibbons. What a shame that MGM chose to film this in black-and-white, rather than Technicolor! While the film is overlong and somewhat dated, you'll rarely get the opportunity to see the likes of Garland, Turner, and LaMarr together in one film. For this reason alone, it should not be missed.Movie Review: 1940's musical
Summary: 2 Stars
We laughed ourselves silly over the outrageous costumes. If this was what busby berkley was famous for, help us all. Even given the year it was made it is comedic. Hedy Lammar looks sinster, Judy Garland looks up usual pilled up self. Lana Turners tried her dramatic skills which are non existent. I'm reminded of a quote from Bea Arthur "There will never be a generation as naive as we were"
