![]() The Mickey Rooney & Judy Garland Collection (Babes in Arms / Babes on Broadway / Girl Crazy / Strike Up the Band) $59.92 never realized just how talented these two stars were.just a great trip down memory lane. ![]() Love Finds Andy Hardy $19.98 The fourth and arguably the best of the "Judge Hardy's Family" series, LOVE FINDS ANDY HARDY introduced Judy Garland as impish girl-next-door Betsy Booth, and also co-starred young Lana Turner as another possible girlfriend for the lovelorn Andy. When he needs to raise the extra $8 for his dream car, Andy (Mickey Rooney) agrees to take his friend's demanding, red-headed girlfriend Cynthia (Lana Turner) to the annual Christmas dance. Trouble is, he's more or less promised to take good ole Polly Benedict (Ann Rutherford) too! And when bright-eyed Betsy Booth (Judy Garland) starts swooning as well, poor Andy begins to wish that kissing had never been invented... Judy Garland's entry into the Andy Hardy films ushered her into the hearts of film fans all over the world. She'd appear in three more of the titles, as well as a series of special musicals with Mickey Rooney (including STRIKE UP THE BAND and BABES IN ARMS). They were such good friends--both on and off the screen--and you can simply tell they were having a ball here. Only one year away from her legendary performance as Dorothy in THE WIZARD OF OZ, Garland sings three thrilling numbers ("In-Between", "It Never Rains But What It Pours" and "Meet the Beat of My Heart"). Sunny, funny entertainment for the whole family. ![]() Silver Screen Legends: Mickey Rooney (Four-Disc Collector's Set) $17.98 Includes Four Features - The Big Wheel, Hoosier Schoolboy, Love Laughs at Andy Hardy & QuicksandThis product is manufactured on demand using DVD-R recordable media.
