Meet Me in St. Louis
Vincente Minnelli’s hymn to family, home and community is a musical miracle with Judy Garland as its beating heart.
Director: Vincente Minnelli
Overview
Up there with Singin’ in the Rain as one of the great musical masterpieces, Meet Me in St Louis is a genuinely heart-warming delight. Although set in the early 1900s, it captures the hopes and anxieties of America during WWII, with Garland as its emotional centre; vivacious in the deliriously enjoyable ‘Trolley Song’ and deeply tender in ‘Have Yourself a Merry Little Christmas’.
