I’ve always believed she had a rough deal from Meyer whilst a child on The Wizard of Oz set. This contributed to her later life difficulties and anxieties. Zellweger delivers a performance beyond belief. I literally gasped and did a double take when I first saw gar as Judy. The likeness is remarkable along with the way she’s captured many of the facial expressions and Garland’s way of moving. Her voice is incredible and she manages to capture all of Garland’s frailty and vulnerability in every scene. The story centres on the last months of Garlands life where, desperate to regain her children and buy a home, she agrees to a series of performances at The Talk of the Town in London. We all know it’s not going to end well, but I was engrossed throughout by the way the threads from her early life are cleverly interwoven by small flashbacks to set the scene for what was going on currently. I was impressed by Jessie Buckley’s performance as her PA. The pair worked really well together. There are a few extras on the dvd; the makeup scenes are intriguing, giving insight into the way in which she is transformed in appearance. Brilliant all round and a film I’ll watch again.
