susan j 01/23/2022 Well-made, informative, but rather sad documentary about Judy Garland's life with all "narration" taking the form of people speaking about Judy at the time, Judy speaking herself, or the words of her husband. Sid Luft. Many performances, and some revealing outtakes. See more 11/13/2021 After so many other documentaries and books, I didn't think there was much more to learn about Garland. Wow! I was surprised with "Sid and Judy." Through Luft's and Garland's own words, accompanied by new film footage and photos, this documentary further illustrates why Garland still is so loved. See more 01/11/2020 Sort of underwhelming to me, but definitely worth a watch. See more 12/28/2019 Hsjddidkjdkfkkfkffkfkfkffiofif on kgkfkkf Jan jdsjsjdjdjdjd See more 11/19/2019 By far the ultimate Judy Garland doc. Rare footage, new audio and lots of Judy Judy Judy. If there was any doubt that this was the greatest entertainer of all time you can erase it after watching this. See more 11/05/2019 great! not as good as judy though. See more Read all reviews
