I'll never forget the long debate we had here on an earlier Meet Me in St. Louis thread over what that thing is called that Judy removes from her head as she sings Have Yourself a Merry Little Christmas.

Unfortunately, I'm spacing on the term that was ultimately deemed the correct answer. But someone actually thought it was a fascinator!

Yes, r54, and Mary Astor, like Irene Sharaff, was old enough to have lived through those years depicted in the film. She may have been too young to wear a corset and but she and Sharaff appreciated all those details women went through for the sake of beauty back then.

Anyone here familiar with those early Warners" Doris Day musicals On Moonlight Bay and By the Light of the Silvery Moon? Love them dearly but they truly seem to be a rip-off of Meet Me in St. Louis and even have hot daddy Leon Ames as the....hot daddy.

Of course, they are based on Booth Tarkington stories so maybe any family film musical in that pre-WWI Americana is going to seem similar.

I think Mary Astor also gave Garland a brisk talking to after the younger actress began keeping the company waiting by being verrrrry late.

I might be imagining this, but Astor may have even told the studio to call her at home once Garland had arrived, and then she’d head over.

(Tho maybe it didn’t get that bad. I just know Astor had been a star longer than Garland, and at some point she was like, “Listen, GURL…”)

by Anonymousreply 93November 26, 2024 6:23 AM

Just as often they stopped her altogether, however, and her unreliability not only cost the studio money but also irritated her fellow actors. After one delay, Mary Astor, who was playing her mother, burst through the door to give her a sound spanking. “Judy, what the hell’s happened to you?” demanded Astor, who had also played the mother role in Listen, Darling, six years earlier. “You were a trouper—once.…You have kept the entire company out there waiting for two hours.” After responding with an infuriating giggle, Judy grabbed Astor by the hand and, in a pathetic con­fes­sion of despair, cried, “I don’t sleep, Mom!”

Young Alfred Alderdice—Drake’s original name—was, in short, a walking advertisement for all-American wholesomeness. “Judy was mad about him,” said Ralph Blane, who with Hugh Martin wrote most of the film’s songs. “Ooooh! She had to have him—that was all there was to it.” Friendship led to romance, which led to bed—where the affair ended. To Drake’s em­­bar­rass­ment and to her own dismay, Judy could not arouse him. Drake was an all-American boy, all right, but an all-Am­erican boy who liked other all-­American boys. A woman more certain of her sexual attractiveness would have realized that his failure in bed was nobody’s fault. But Judy was angry, apparently equating his inability to be excited with rejection. Though they did not know what had transpired, those on the set noticed an immediate change in the weather; the flames in Judy’s eyes turned to icicles.
