Flick of the Day

Film: THE HARVEY GIRLS
Director: George Sidney
Actors: Judy Garland, John Hodiak, Angela Lansbury, Ray Bolger, Cyd Charisse
Year: 1946

Synopsis: A young woman travels West as a mail-order bride and discovers that things don't always go according to plan. She soon takes a job as a 'Harvey girl' and tries to run the town casino out of business.


Judy Garland is at her best in this fun musical, featuring a beautiful, sultry Angela Lansbury (a leap from her 'Murder She Wrote' days), nearly a decade after "The Wizard of Oz". This classic film re-pairs "Oz" pals Garland and Bolger, and showcases the popular Oscar-winning song 'On the Atchison, Topeka, and the Santa Fe'.
