The studio should be held accountable for destroying this woman. And they still get away with it even today, maybe they all need to be investigated and held accountable. That will not happen because they are corrupt and cover their butts. Judy is at peace, and she is happy where God has her. She has three beautiful children, and they will succeed further. Prayers to her family. Thank you, Jerry, for talking about Judy and her life it is a true tribute to this woman who deserved more but did not get it.
@@usmc-veteran73-77 she made many other movies and it's very possible that someone in this big huge entire world may just not have found out about her through oz
Even though I knew all about Judy Garland's misfortunate life, I had to watch this episode because you never fail to treat the lives of legend, with the utmost kindness and dignity, Jerry. You are a true gentleman and a legend in your own right. Much gratitude.
Beautiful and touching tribute to an amazing and complex star ⭐️ like Judy Garland. Loved 🥰 the photos of Judy , especially as a baby and young girl. Thank you, Jerry. ❤️❤️
Look into her life a wee bit DEEPER & you'll find an OCEAN of tears awaitin' ye, Lad. Try reading an e-book or visiting your local library to find an autobiography called Judy Garland on Judy Garland by Randy L Schmidt. It will REALLY open your eyes. But, to get back to your point; it is INDEED a shame what MGM did to NOT ONLY Judy but Mickey Rooney whilst they were in their TEENS....... I can't EVER listen to her sing her Trademark Swan-song (Now that I know JUST HOW MUCH it COST her) without tearing up. RIP, Frances Ethel Gumm. The REST of the world knew you as Miss Judy Garland as, admittedley, did I. It seems that Elton could've dedicated "Candle in the Wind" to you as well. RIP, Dear Sweet American SongBird. I hope you've found your way O'er yer own Rainbow, lass. You were taken from us, WAY TOO SOON, but I believe I'm done on this topic...I'm tired of sheddin' tears & wish that I could JUST go back to when I barely knew about you & ONLY interacted w/ you annually for the re-showing of the role that made you famous and your name a household word (usually in April in my timezone). YOU ARE LOVED & SORELY MISSED!!!!
Jerry…You really outdid yourself on this one! Excellent work! My heart breaks for Judy. Why couldn’t just one person take her aside and say…”I will be your friend, I will help you learn how to budget and invest your money, and I will teach you how to how to help yourself live a healthy life”? We’re there no adults in her life?!!! At least it sounds like she had the love of her children. Although it was painful to watch, thank you for bringing us this documentary. I have an idea that it took a great deal of research. Thank you, Craig
@@exdus235 I really hope that Liza will reach out to Jerry for this superb story ...He moved us all, not sure we'll all feel the same way about the Wizard of Oz anymore!!
Thank you Jerry for putting a wonderful, detailed and moving documentary on one of the greatest shining stars of our industry. She would be proud. Thank you.
I was born in Grand Rapids Minnesota in the same hospital and possibly the same room that Judy was born in. I've lived there most of my life. Her childhood home was moved to its current location and is now the Judy Garland museum. I have driven by the house (museum) for years now and have never been in there, maybe this week. I would especially like to see the carriage used in the wizard of oz. My father was older than the Gumm children and I asked him if he knew or ever met the family and he said he knew who they were but not personally. The theater building front is still there. An interesting family. Thanks for sharing your knowledge.
Thanks for this wonderful profile of JUDY GARLAND, I'm always interested in JUDY Profiles or Bio's. I hope to see more recordings and profiles on JUDY GARLAND .
Wow. What a lovely, tender presentation of Judy's life. The final frames so encapsulated the entire story. So many images throughout the video that I had never seen before. TYVM for this documentary. ❤ 💫 👌
Great documentary Jerry! And you are spot on about Hollywood and they way they treated them young stars. Judy was so very talented! What really gets to me is how her mother let that happen to her child.
Another great job Jerry! Judy had a very sad life; may she rest in peace. God bless you Jerry and your sweet wife. Love y'all. Your fans from Iuka, Charley and Deb Young 😊💜👍
Thank's both of you. Charley, i am getting old. We had a gift card to the ribb shack, but as we set down at homers we discovered we were in the wrong place. Am i the only one that happens to? Jerry
@@JerrySkinner1943 No, it happens to us also, just laugh about it and enjoy life while you still can! 🤣🤣 Hope you both have a wonderful weekend and Happy Mother's Day to your wife.
A couple of years back I went to see Judy the movie. When the movie was over and the house lights came up, there wasnt a dry eye in the house. Both men and women were touched. We all had an idea of how tragic her life was. I remember her show on tv when Liza came on, and I wondered then, who really is Judy Garland??? Your video tonight is the most touching tribute I have ever seen to Judy Garland and THE BEST.❤❤❤ Thank you sir. Robbing a childs psyche is the worst thing anyone can do to make a person one of the walking dead. ❤ you give her psyche back to her, the rightful owner. ❤
Jerry you did a wonderful work/research on this amazing talented woman. So sad that many took advantage of her and I supposed her bad decisions. She passed away so young. Bless her soul ❤
There is something about your voice and manner of speaking that makes your narration so relaxing to hear. Also your knowledge is great. I’ve always admired Judy Garland. She was abused though. Poor lady.
Hello Jerry been thinking about you; it's about time for another epic moment and you came through! I always liked Judy Garland and more or less knew about her tumultuous life, but never to such a degree. People used and abused Judy: it was heartbreaking to listen to her true story. She died young. May she rest in eternal peace. ✝
What really hurts is there have been many times where the I R S has gone after any number of actors/entertainers, only to find out they have given freely of their high earning time for the War effort. Abbott and Costello were the poster boys for that atrocity.
Dear Mr. Jerry Skinner, Well Done! Well Done! Thank you sir, for your time, your research and your devoted love you ALWAYS present. Especially, this specular documentary. Thank you for your extremely amazing, remarkable documentaries. Your heart, soul and words touches OUR HEARTS 💞 My favorite all time movie, The Wizard Of Oz. Thank you Judy for your OUTSTANDING performance of Dorothy Gale. Somewhere Over The Rainbow 🌈 ❤ 💚 💜 💙 💛 Thank you Frances Ethel Gumm aka Judy Garland, for your devoted loving OUTSTANDING performances ⭐ "A Star Is Born" ⭐ ❤ Rest In Peace ❤ 🌟 ✨ 🙏 🙌 💫 ⭐
I often wonder how Liza is doing. I think the Lufts are doing okay, but poor Liza, doomed to her mother's misfortune, has had it rough. But what an amazing pair. Talent oozed out of their every pore. I hope they are all well and Judy is resting in peace. I'm assuming Judy has grandchildren and maybe a great or two. How wonderful it would have been if she was with us today to enjoy a well deserved private life. Great job, Sir. You never disappoint bringing your sensitivity and showing much respect toward the people that brought us so much joy on the silver screen. The Hollywood machine be damned! 🎥🥤🎬🍿☮🌹
Jerry, you did a SUPERB job on this docu!!! What a tragic life she lived. Bad enough to go through such a life in relative obscurity. But, to live it out for all to see is sad beyond words. So many of the child stars of her era were abused, and it continued through the 60's until stronger laws were passed to protect child actors.
I wish I could give you 10000 👍 thumbs up for this video. It was so well done and sensitive to all the Joys and sufferings of Judy Garland. Nobody gets out of this Earthly dimension alive.
Can’t say enough how great your documentaries but this one of Judy is the best of your best! May she truly Rest In Peace and never be forgotten Thank you!
Jerry great video my friend !! BUT ,,, it sucks what happened to Judy, and it's all because of money ! That crap would not be able to happen in this day and age ... THANK YOU FRANK FROM MONTANA......
Hi Jerry, been awhile for me. Been burring my two little brothers. A phophetic show today, truly Jerry, you should listen to DIO ( Italian for God) to the song, Rainbow In The Dark. Make sure you're reading the lyrics. It's mind staggering in the similarities and mind boggling to be sure. Warning Jerry, it's hard rock, but worth every word. It's here on TH-cam. Thanks for all you do truly.🦅🇺🇸🦅 I ain't gonna lie, I had a huge crush on Judy Garland.
Thank you Mr Skinner. This old 48-50 era born boomer has loved 'Time Travelling' along with you in every episode you produce'. since stumbling on to you 3 years ago. Discovering what happened behind the headlines I saw but didn't understand all of the 'stars' of the days I got to see at the flics every Saturday afternoon, eased by your soothing voice and what is to me, a Canadian, a delightful accent to add a touch of spice to the mix, all eased by your soothing voice. Keep it up. You are good ! Maybe you've done it already but hope there is or will be a version about the 'Davy Crockett' culture (mid-50s) that was 'culture defining' for my age group and expand it into how 'Mattel' handled the popular market by introducing absolutely excellent toy guns ranging from gorgeously perfect 'Black powder' muskets to Colts every would-be cowboy boy wanted . . . but many were not able to afford.
Oh, Judy! What a tragic childhood ...you had had and the monster mother....Thank you Mr Skinner for a tribute to late Ms Garland. I had no idea how miserable her mother was and that her doing had destroyed the life of such an American Treasure...Rest in Peace!
her story is so tragic the fact that she struggled with addiction bc of her own mother not being a mother and not allowing a studio to do that to her young child. You can tell deep inside she was a scared little girl trying to figure out how to be a normal adult but the trauma she experienced as a child stayed with her up until her death. I can relate to not wanting to do something without a drink especially young that’s ptsd & trauma. It was also terrible that women were paid way less than men back then despite being the actually star - my dreams of being an actress comes and goes due to that and also being a black woman. This was a great documentary on her life I work in a nursing home and a lot of my residents love her and tell me all about her so I decided to research her - she was always just Dorthoy to me but I got to see her as an actual person.
Very well done Mr. Skinner. Judy had a tragic life through no fault of her own. Nowadays what was done to her would be called child abuse. Your kindness and compassion for her struggles in life shows throughout this presentation. The ethereal music and pictures of Judy during the end were a fitting tribute to a true survivor.
I always anxiously anticipate your uploads, you never disappoint and I never miss your program. As I expected, another interesting and informative video. Two thumbs up!
I love Judy Garland so much I saw all of her films over the years and A Star Is Born is probably my favourite film of all time and also probably the best so thanks Jerry
My heart aches for Judy Garland! My prayers are she is in state of complete love and is appreciated to the fullest extent. My believe is we go to Heaven and are in Service there . Also, I think We continue to progress in whatever service . Judy Garland is an example of total talent and being used. Judy’s mother seems to have been the main culprit against her daughter. And old Hollywood really took advantage of Judy while her own mother allowed it to happen. Judy had no real help to get off drugs. And instead, she used drugs as a coping mechanism to endure life and it’s confusions. Judy Garland was a profound singer and actress and she is loved.
Another great bio Jerry dident realize how tough she had it she was a great singer , getting married and divorced in Hollywood is like a normal thing you do every day . RIP Judy
Came across a post on Facebook about her and her traumatic experiences while filming Wizard of Oz. I'm so sorry she had to go through such. She seemed to have been a very, very sweet and down to earth person.
Listening to the background music and watching the pictures brought tears to my eyes. Judy, you are greatly missed, you should have lived longer. 😢 I am a 43 year old that loves singing, and my favorite voice of all time will always be Judy Garland.
Thanks Jerry, I got there in the end, this was possibly your best documentary yet which must have been seriously difficult to investigate and put together. What a shame that such a talented and beautiful young lady was allowed to be so badly abused throughout her short life. R I P Lovely Judy. Take care and all the best. Stevie
Jerry, I can't imagine how much work this took to put together. In those days women were taken advantage of, abused and ground to death and no one cared as they would move on to someone else.They still try it today, but women have much more protection and rights. I'm sure there are more stories like hers out there. I remember her well and her name was golden to me. Thanks for your time, Cheers, Lee
Well done, Jerry. I realize you had to do a lot of boiling down to fit Judy's life in a short presentation, so I decided to read a book entitled, "Get Happy: The life of Judy Garland" by Gerald Clarke (author of Capote). I was born in 57' but still saw most of Judy's films (on B&W tv) as a youngster. So, just like the rest of the world in the 40s and 50s, Judy effected me during my formative years. Gerald Clarke is a superb writer, and has done his homework. If you are a Judy fan, I highly recommend this read. Jerry has done an excellent job, but the book will take you very deeply in Judy's life....and what an amazing life it was.
This is absolutely your very best production ever, Jerry, and we watch them all. You gave the most balanced reporting and presentation of her life that we've ever heard. Thank you for all you have shared over the years. Bless you!
Thank you again Jerry, I grew up with Judy and Mickey. What a team. She had a very sad life. I always felt sad for her. An incredible documentary, please keep em coming. Augie and Jill Blase, Winter Springs, Florida
It’s a good day when Jerry busts out another gem.
It sure is
Yes!🙂
I miss many the old traditional medium...not shorts....
Such a great talent. Loved her films. Sad for Judy and her sisters, it seems all 3 were mistreated
The studio should be held accountable for destroying this woman. And they still get away with it even today, maybe they all need to be investigated and held accountable. That will not happen because they are corrupt and cover their butts. Judy is at peace, and she is happy where God has her. She has three beautiful children, and they will succeed further. Prayers to her family. Thank you, Jerry, for talking about Judy and her life it is a true tribute to this woman who deserved more but did not get it.
Thank you Jerry. We all grew up Judy Garland fans, because of "Wizard of Oz." Always looked forward each year watching it on TV.
Nope
@@yeahnoonecaresifyouarefirst Why "Nope?"

She left us too early. Such a pretty lady with great voice and dancer. Thanks for her story.
Her siblings and parents died before the age of 60.

Great job as always Mr. Skinner.
Thank you Mr Skinner. This old 48-50 era born boomer has loved 'Time Travelling' along with you in every episode you produce'. since stumbling on to you 3 years ago. Discovering what happened behind the headlines I saw but didn't understand all of the 'stars' of the days I got to see at the flics every Saturday afternoon, eased by your soothing voice and what is to me, a Canadian, a delightful accent to add a touch of spice to the mix, all eased by your soothing voice. Keep it up. You are good !
Maybe you've done it already but hope there is or will be a version about the 'Davy Crockett' culture (mid-50s) that was 'culture defining' for my age group and expand it into how 'Mattel' handled the popular market by introducing absolutely excellent toy guns ranging from gorgeously perfect 'Black powder' muskets to Colts every would-be cowboy boy wanted . . . but many were not able to afford.
I fell in love with Judy in 1971 , i was 6 years old
Oh, Judy! What a tragic childhood ...you had had and the monster mother....Thank you Mr Skinner for a tribute to late Ms Garland. I had no idea how miserable her mother was and that her doing had destroyed the life of such an American Treasure...Rest in Peace!

I was born in 57' but still saw most of Judy's films (on B&W tv) as a youngster. So, just like the rest of the world in the 40s and 50s, Judy effected me during my formative years. Gerald Clarke is a superb writer, and has done his homework. If you are a Judy fan, I highly recommend this read. Jerry has done an excellent job, but the book will take you very deeply in Judy's life....and what an amazing life it was.
Thank you so much Jerry for uploading this.
Judy Garland will always be my favorite Actress ❤️. It’s so heartbreaking and sad what happened to her.
