Why this absolutely - 1st Class - biopic was relegated to TV, instead of given a theatrical release, is unfathomable to me. It was a brilliantly acted, particularly by Judy Davis as the adult Garland, and well written, beautifully told story with excellent production values. Such a praise worthy rendering of the legendary singer/actress is certainly better than many, if not most, top notch major motion pictures I've ever seen. Maybe the producers didn't feel Garland's current fan base was substantial enough to warrant a klieg lighted premiere... Your guess is as good as mine. But, whatever the case may be, this is a film made with a great deal of care and genuine Love for its subject. I highly recommend it to any and everyone who enjoyed Garland's work, some of which is highlighted, and for those who are curious about her personal triumphs and tribulations.
