Judy Davis was spectacular!


I was absolutely mesmorized with her stunning performance. When Davis enters as the adult Judy it feels as though you are watching Judy Garland play Judy Garland. David is just that good! I am going to go out on a limb and name this as the best biopic performance I have ever seen. Tammy Blanchard was also great as the younger Judy. I was also pleasantly surprised to see Marsha Mason in this. Mason is one of my all time favorite actresses and I hardly get to see her in anything anymore. She was great as Ethel Gumm (Judy's mother) I am a bit surprised Mason was not nominated for an emmy for this too. In my opinions this was pure and simple one of the best miniseries ever with astounding performances by almost every performer in it!

I couldn't agree more...Davis was mesmerizing in this film and the Golden Globe and Emmy she won couldn't have been more deserving. I also concur that Marsha Mason offers one of the best performances of her career as Ethel Gumm...who knew she had it in her?

I missed this on tv but I have to see it sometime. I love Judy Davis and I love Judy Garland and I was blown away by the previews for this. Davis is no less than amazing in everything I see her in and I can't think of anyone else I'd trust to play Garland.
