    This was a good, well-researched video. While her adult kids will disagree that their Mother's life was tragic, they will admit that tragic things did happen to her. But they always focus on and remember her phenomenal talent, outrageous sense of humor, and her love for them. Good job!

    Excellent job on a difficult and sad subject. I've been a fan of Judy Garland since 1965,when i was 5,watching her in that wonderful film The Wizard of Oz. It is so sad about the prescription medications/drugs, that she was given by he mother and MGM studios. She was also put on crazy dies for a teenager, and criticized for her looks or weight. She was also overworked. I know she collapse on the set of the film Girl Crrazy and was only given 2-3 wks off. The "medications" caused a lot of problems especially when she was making the film The Pirate. I once heard her daughter say back then, people called When Judy died at age 47 Liza was concerned it could be Suicide ,and she contacted the London Coroner who concluded 'incautious or accidental overdose. She took some pills at bedtime, then awoke and took more, which was too much for her frail body.

      I get the feeling that her death was an accident. Regardless of tolerance there was so many years of abuse beforehand. It’s sad that she left us so young. (47 isn’t old imo)

      @@Browser__History You really need to tone back your rabid feminism. It’s despicable. Men aren’t to blame for the choices of women. Your choice, your problem. Take responsibility. Judys mother, a woman, knew what she was doing. All she had to do was pull her away from it all. But she didn’t. But again… everything is a mans fault, right? Wrong. It’s mainly women eviscerating their own children before they have a chance at life.

    Came across your channel this evening. I’m 56 years old. At first I could tell how young you are by your voice and I thought it interesting you are talking about history. There were a few mispronunciations at the beginning but then I realized something important. YOU are the reason why the generations before you, me included, fought so hard to get the womens rights you now take for granted. Initially it’s kind of irritating because it’s like you have no idea of how how it’s been historically. But then I think, in the last 100 years women have gone from having no voting rights let alone societal rights to where we are today. When you said to google information about it because it’s crazy the things that happened. Garland was my grandparents generation which I knew well. So much has changed. I’m glad you recognize your true power in the world. It’s not even something you do consciously it’s built into you just like our generations affected us. I believe you are the first generation in the history of women in North America to have these beliefs a part of your way of thinking.
    It’s a beautiful thing to see. Your video talent is amazing. I studied film in college initially but quit because I realized that I would never get offered a decent job behind the scenes as it was all men. I literally gave up my dream because of men and their power over me. Then literally the next generation which is you probably thinks that’s crazy! It’s true though. I’m actually having to rewire my belief systems of how a woman gets treated and what is bad and what isn’t. Crazy but true. Keep up the good work.

      You have no idea how much your comment means to me. Honestly, I think we (as women) all want the same thing. It’s hard to imagine a world completely dominated by men. There are still some battles left to be fought, but we’re getting there. I think us younger don’t give enough credit to the older generations who paved the way for us.
      Thanks for the support!

    I've always loved her, even I was only a year old when she died. My childhood came crashing for me when I found out That the studio started her on smoking and pills and yes even alcohol. The studio Mr. mayor used to call her his fatty and by him is why she didn't get off of the drugs. As you see, they did do this with male young boys, but look at the difference that the studios did with all the female actresses. Some of this still exists, but as bad. Male actors can be over 50 and still doing roles of adventure, where females at the same age of the men play mom roles and grandmas. Too much to disgusts, but if look they did the same to other actress as well. They only cared about the money not the young actors and definably women. So sad about her life. I hope she is at peace with God and the angels!

    In a video about Judy Garland, why do you start out @ :36 by showing someone merely pretending to be Garland, when many viewers may not be aware that the face shown, looking like someone sucking on lemons, is not actually the Great Lady, herself??? This really confounds me. While Googling Garland turns up a plethora of misleading photos of a homely actress pretending to be JG, it seems outrageous and ironic to show this wannabe in a 17-minute video about abuse sustained by Miss Garland, without even telling the viewers that the image being shown is not actually Miss Garland!!!

    Her mother did NOT give Judy Garland pills or drugs. There is no evidence that ever happened. Judy may have said that; that's probably where that untruth came from. Judy Garland was a
    drug addict; drug addicts are not what you would call credible. She blamed everyone else for her troubles; her mother, Louis B. Mayer, MGM, Sid Luft. She made tapes to be used for
    an autobiography that never got completed. On the tapes she is obviously drunk or on drugs; she rants and raves about how badly she's been treated by everybody and then talks
    about "the stupid ones" who say she's a drug addict. "Well, it's a wonder I'm NOT!" Yes, she denied being a drug addict. In the very good book "The Making of the Wizard of Oz" the
    author said this of Judy Garland and it was true: "She lied a lot." Even her children admitted that. They said she never let the truth get in the way of a good story.

      @@Browser__History You're not intentionally spreading misinformation, but many folks, especially those born after Judy died, don't really get her wild sense of absurdity and fun, as well as her eagerness to entertain. The idea of midgets reaching up her Dorothy costume is pure Judy humor-- off-the-rails visual absurdity. As with a lot of other stories, it's myth, folklore.
