The Harvey Girls

One of my favorite musicals! Arrived on time and exactly as described. Thanks!

The songs, the costumes, the dialog and the Stars when put all together, Outstanding.

PICTURE QUALITY IS GREAT

Very good HD transfer with bright saturated color and clear full-range sound.

I originally saw this lush technicolor musical on a Sunday afternoon (when I was in high school) wedged between commercials for detergents, paper towels, and various other household products. Despite the film being interrupted with these ads and being shown on a small tv screen, I was captivated by Judy Garland's beauty, sincerity, power to communicate as an artist, and her incomparable talent to act, sing, dance, and charm. This film does not have the same status as Meet Me in St. Louis or The Pirate or A Star is Born, but it is one of her best performances presented with a calmness and freshness that puts you, the viewer, at ease. Her character Susan Bradley is one of her best portrayals. She is funny, courageous, witty, determined, and strong. Like Esther Smith in Meet Me in St. Louis or Dorothy Gale in The Wizard of Oz or Lily Mars in Presenting Lily Mars, Susan Bradley is a winner, the kind of woman you respect and admire, especially considering the time period the film was set in.This dvd release is a true gift to those of us who are not only Judy Garland fans, but to anyone who has ever enjoyed the film musical. I won't rehash all the details found in other reviews of Amazon customers about the dvd, but I will add that the color transfer is simply awesome. It DOES look like the film was shot recently, not way back in 1945. The deleted musical numbers and the recording sessions for the songs is an extreme necessity for any Garland fan. I am really sorry they cut "My Intuition" since it's the only time Garland and John Hodiak sang together in the film, but I can understand why they cut "March of the Doagies." Don't get me wrong: I like it, but it almost looks a chase for Frankenstein's monster with Judy ending up on a stake being burned alive!Now here's some trivia no one in their review has mentioned. Originally the film was going to be made as a drama for Lana Turner, but MGM, due to Rodgers and Hammerstein's success with "Oklahoma!", decided to turn it into a musical for their leading musical star. Originally, the story of the Harvey girls was based on book called The Harvey Girls by Samuel Hopkins Adams published in 1942. Another piece of trivia was that the lovely Cyd Charisse was dubbed in this film, but one would never notice since the dubber really captured her vocal quality and essence.Without hesitation, this dvd release is an awesome addition to any collection. You won't be disappointed! Now we can await the arrival of other Judy Garland classic musicals for future releases. Who knows what other "undiscovered goodies" await us from the vaults of MGM?

OKay movie

Love all the oldies and I really enjoyed being able to watch this again

This was a gift for my niece who has great memories watching this with her grandmother. She wants to pass it to her kids. Cute movie. Classic Recommend to 10yrs and up. Gina Clabo

This latest Blu-ray is another recent glorious technicolour release from Warner Archive. It a very light hearted film with a good cast lots of singing and fun. Compared to the DVD version I have it is vastly superior and if you like the film its a worthwhile upgrade.

Great movie!

Product is reasonable quality

I absolutely LOVE this movie, and I'm so glad I finally found it! Every other time I've found it online, people were asking 75$ upward for the dvd and I couldn't afford that. I found this for ~15$. I am so very pleased with it!!
