Saturday at the Bijou

Okay... "Meet Me In St. Louis"... one of those period piece movies, with a few songs added. Of course it's very well done, with athentic detail, and good luck with your allergies when Judy Garland starts singing "Have Yourself A Merry Little Christmas".

Lucille Ballen (sp?) had a prominent role in this movie as the eldest daughter, Rose. I noticed her in "Ziegfeld Follies" (two Lucilles, her and Ball), dancing two pantomimes with Fred Astaire. I'll Google her later, wonder how many other MGM contract players have faded away? Oh, and June Lockhart was in this as well... and the youngest daughter reminds me of somone...

Next up: The Gang's All Here. Busby Berkeley
