I love Liza's voice. Is unique. Lovely voices like their mothers.
Like mother, like daughter. Gorgeous contraltos!
@Star even if that's true, it's quite rude to bring up.
@@arxsynI just realized remember it was put in on
I remember Mister Rogers having Margaret Hamilton, aka Wicked witch, on his show because so many children had been frightened by her in the movie. Together they explained she was just dressing up and play acting and it was a lot of fun. She came across so nice.
I remember that Mr. Rogers episode too. Nice. 💗🙂🎵🎶🎼📽️
She was on Sesame Street as well
Mr. Rogers. Wish he was an actual god instead of the garbage people have gobbled up since forever...
I never got to meet her, but I know some people who met her. They all vouched that she was a sweet lady. She used to be a Kindergarten teacher before she was the Witch. They said she loved kids.
Liza Minelli has the best laugh ever !!!
Just like her mothers.
]
Omg watch the mashup of Liza Minnelli. VS carol channing
Love it
I herd Liza is nice when you meet her.
Liza's voice and laugh is EVERYTHING 😍
L with an i with z with an. Liza.
Bless her she’s beautiful
So Dorothy’s daughter was married to the Tin Man’s son??? Mind blown!
Ms.Minnelli was married to young Mr.Haley(the son of the performer..who played"Hickory Twicker"/"The Tin Man" in the movie)but..they would soon divorce.
Yup...Jack Haley Jr....Liza also has a terrier that is decended from ToTo.
Well her real name is Judy Garland but I guess we still know her as Dorothy Gales
@@kittysectionnews her real name is Frances Gumm I know I’m a nerd 😂
@@kittysectionnews it’s Dorothy Gale. And her real name is Frances Gumm
I definitely believe Lorna. The way she said "no no no no no!" sounded just like her mom.
Yeah I can see Judy being like “oh no no no no! It’s okay! I promise! I’m right here in New York!”
Sure did! Apparently after that she also told her kids "You will never watch that movie again without me there." as she didn't want a repeat of the monkey scare lol. Wonder if it ever helped to tell them that the scene where Dorothy gets carried away by the monkeys was actually not Judy Garland; that was her stand in Bobbie Koshay. So technically, their mama did not get taken away by the monkehs 😂
How iconic you can be that your mom is actually an icon. Minnelli Level 🙌🏻😌
IT'S HOT UP HERE LET'S GO!!
Gets me every time
And poor Judy was in a harness when those monkeys carried her off. The harness malfunctioned and she fell, injuring her ankle badly. Ray Bolger said it was not fun to make that movie but it was worth it.
@@raea3588 actually no, the scene where Dorothy gets carried off by the monkeys was not Judy. It was her stand in Bobbie Koshay. They shot the scene almost from the back to hide her face so that the audience wouldn’t know it wasn’t Judy. MGM wouldn’t have risked Judy doing that stunt, not so much because they cared about her safety, but because if Judy got hurt the picture would’ve been shut down until she recovered and that would’ve cost them more money.
The two actors playing the monkeys who carried Dorothy away did however get injured when the wires snapped and they fell. I don’t believe the stand in Bobbie Koshay got injured though.
THE WIZARD OF OZ IS THE BEST MOVIE EVER MADE! ITS MAGICAL, THE SPECIAL EFFECTS AND SETS SO BEAUTIFUL! BUT, ITS THE ENDING THAT GETS TO ME EVERY TIME. TINMAN, "NOW I KNOW I HAVE A HEART, BECAUSE ITS BREAKING!" AND DOROTHY SAYING GOODBYE, SHE WHISPERS IN
SCARECROW'S EAR," I THINK I'LL MISS YOU MOST OF ALL!" OMG
IT GETS TO ME ALWAYS!
NEVER WAS SCARED OF ANY OF IT, I KNEW IT WAS ALL MAKE BELIEVE.
AND TO GET THAT KNOT IN MY THROAT, ALL I LITERALLY HAVE TO HEAR IS THE ORCHESTRA PLAY AT THE START, THE FIRST FIVE NOTES! I GUESS BECAUSE I KNOW WHATS GOING TO HAPPEN.
PRICELESS MOVIE! NEVER OUT GROW IT! AND I'M FROM KANSAS CITY!
“The monkeys 🙊 took you to New York “ lol 😂
Just like Lorna says...so many important virtues about living come through in this film. No one else could have been Dorothy but Judy. She magically maintains that childhood innocence throughout
Movies that are automatically good by its certain values are so hard to find these days
Two great, great ladies & talents... the last of the very best
I had no idea Judy Garland had another child. I hadn’t heard of Lorna Luft. Her voice sounds like her mother’s. Liza Minnelli both looks and sounds like her mother.
She had three children. Liza with Vincent Minnelli, and Lorna and Joey with Sid Luft.
Lorna Luft is also a singer who sounds more like her mother than Liza.
Lorna was in Grease 2!
I've seen Lorna the Broadway tour of Guys and Dolls she was wonderful. I also got to meet her after Tom Bergerons People are Talking show in Boston. I told her she was a hoot in Grease 2 and she arched her eyebrow and said..." Oh, yeah?" We spoke a few minutes and she signed a pic for me. Amazing talent. Very cool and giving performer.
@@kallen868 Lorna has her mother Judy’s vibrato, which I could listen to all day, like Dolly Parton’s and Stevie Nicks’s tremolos.
I was born at the end of the 60s, and as far back as I can remember; as a child I always looked forward to what seemed to be an annual showing of the Wizard of Oz. Such a fun, magical, amazing movie!
Watching this April 2022. Wonderful. I can only imagine Judy feeling so blessed to have her children. 💗👋🙏🎵📽️🎞️
I was scared of those scenes with"The Witch" and those "Flying Monkeys"and "The Wizard"..when I saw this movie on CBS TV..back in the 1960's..but? as I grew older..I began to appreciate the beautiful message that is a part of the film's plot and the story..conceived by Mr.Baum in his book..the true meaning of home, family and love.
I was also lucky enough to meet..Ms.Margaret Hamilton(who played the dual roles of"Ms.Elmira Gulich" and"The Wicked Witch Of The West")in NYC..back in the 1970's..and she was nothing like those mean characters..she was a talented, sweet and kindly person..in Fact? She was a school teacher..before she became a performer.
Kevin S. Butler the late Margeret Hamilton not only played Miss Gulch/the Wicked Witch of the West in the wizard of Oz, but in the early to mid 1970's she played Cora in the Chase & Sanborn coffee commercial that was filmed in one of the New England States which my guess is Vermont or Western Massachusetts.
Yes..I know that she played"Cora"the store owner that promoted"Maxwell House"Coffee..Not "Chasen & Sandborn"Coffee in those tv commercials.
The Wizard of Oz is mine and my Mom ALL TIME FAVORITE MOVIE.
Mine too!
Scared me too, I'm 63 now... lions and tigers and bears, oh my! I still love Judy, Scarecrow, Tin man and especially Lion.
My favorite movie ever... btw Listen to them with your eyes closed.. they sound just like judy g. .. can´t deny they are the daughters. Thank you AFI.
I do not hear any resemblance what so ever in Liza's or Lorna's voice that sounds in the least like Judy's. Absolutely no resemblance.
Yes i believe liza sounds more like there mom
@@terrysmith8749 I'm certainly not a Judy Garland vocal expert but your being obtuse with the absolutely no resemblance at all. Lorna definitely sounded like her when she dropped a octave to tell that story between 1:14 -1:21 (The sob, the gasp and even how she phrased the last word mon-kee)
I was a kid the first time I saw the Wizard of Oz on tv at age 7. Didn't bother me. I totally enjoyed it then as now.
Yeah, I don't get that. When I was a young kid, I could always distinguish between reality and television.
@@JLDReactions Me too, horror has never frightened me other than a jump scare, but that happens in life when someone opens the door at the same time as you, it is more surprise than fear.
I was never scared of the monkeys, as many people were (like my parents), but the witch sure scared me! I used to have nightmares of her setting my house on fire.
There are times when Lorna sounds so much like Judy (as does Liza), but I hadn't noticed it so much with Lorna before.
I think "The Wizard of Oz" is one of the most frightening movies ever made--but I always liked the tornado. I wonder if the people involved in its production had any idea that people would be so affected by the movie. Lorna Luft here gives a brief but excellent analysis of "The Wizard of Oz", explaining why the film is more than just a scary, sometimes heart-wrenching story but one that has a message about home and heart and facing fears and that lifts people up.
what a sissy
Judy Garland and The Wizard of OZ, she was a great actress and the movie a favorite of mine and have watched the film again and again. I really enjoyed seeing Judy Garland on TV and remember her voice was unique.
Liza looks exactly like her Mom. Lorna looks like Judy’s second husband.
Lorna's biological father was Sidney Luft, but he was specifically Judy's third husband. Liza's biological father Vincente Minnelli was Judy's second husband and director of Meet Me in St. Louis.
Liza like exactly like hey father when she was younger. She grew to look like her mom.
I agree! Judy was a real beauty, and liza is a clone!
Lorna looks like Ethel.
*ITS HOT UP HERE LETS GO*
I think if I were on that set, I would say that too!
@@71crm Lmaoooo, I would’ve been scared asf i don’t blame jack jr lmfao
So I'm 34 this year and all my life I've known Judy Garland in The Wizard of Oz. Separately I had only heard the trolley song from The Simpsons Treehouse of Horror episode with Rosie O'Donnell. I had never known that Judy Garland sing that song in Meet Me in st. Louis all this time. As recently as a few weeks ago a friend ended up putting on the real song but just the clip from the movie on TH-cam. I grew up playing big band music in high school and am very fond of that era. So naturally seeing and hearing the real song just blew me away. I can't get that song out of my head and my heart now and probably won't. I'm then today watching a bunch of TH-cam videos of Judy on the Jack Paar or Johnny Carson shows and learning about her devastating backstory. That aside I randomly just find out right now after all this time that the director of Meet Me In St Louis ended up having a baby with Judy Garland and naming her Liza Minnelli whom ended up marrying the son of the Tin Man. Like WTF X 1000!!!!
My 7th grade teacher Sister Kay looked just like the Wicked Witch. And she was just as scarry as the witch of west too....
LOL
Was she green skinned? Probably related to Kermit.
As a nun, did she dress in black too?
@@grecomic yup, she sure did.
Liza voiced Dorothy in "Journey Back to Oz" (1972). The True sequel to The 1939 MGM Wizard of Oz as far as I'm concerned.
In addition to Liza, it also features Margaret Hamilton as Auntie Em, Milton Berle, Mickey Rooney, Herschel Bernardi, Ethel Merman, Risë Stevens, Paul Lynde, Danny Thomas, Mel Blanc, and Bill Cosby.
@@Halfscotboy_39 Bill Cosby played the Wizard of Oz in a live action framing sequence that was added when the film was first shown on television. For contractual reasons, the Cosby segments could not be repeated after the second showing, so they were reshot with Milton Berle instead, though apparently the Cosby scenes were used again later when the film was shown in syndication. So Cosby appeared in only one of two TV versions of the movie, and he appeared only in the live-action framing sequence. He doesn't voice a role in the animated portion of the film, unlike Milton Berle, who plays the Cowardly Lion.
It’s weird watching this knowing the dark truth of the making of the wizard of oz
ikr :(
What’s the dark truth?
@@dxd4023 www.oversixty.com.au/entertainment/movies/dark-secrets-from-the-set-of-wizard-of-oz
Many a pesky munchkin snuck under Judy’s petticoat... Dirty little blighters lol
Back in those days the rules were different.
I wish I could hear them talking about more funny stories from behind the scenes of wizard of Oz haha
Watching this interview, it is so easy to see why Liza became a star and Lorna just never could break through.
This bitterly surprises me that only one sister made it big
Liza is awesome. I remember when she was in her golden years. She was a class act and that voice. 😘
Liza looks like her mommy!
Love Liza! Class act!
My first memory of the Wizard of oz, was seeing the wicked witch appear in munchkin-land. That scene is etched in my memory (word for word) and at 5 years old, it was the stuff of nightmares for weeks to come.
Kids today are used to seeing all kinds of crap on TV, but in the 70's, that witch was the most evil thing you could ever set eyes on.
I never realized how much Liza Minnelli looks and sounds like her mama!
Ms.Minnelli co-hosted the very first telecast of"The Wizard Of Oz"with Bert Lahr(Bert played "Zeke"/"The Cowardly Lion")in the film and with "Oz"Historian and the first president and founder of"The International Wizard Of Oz Club"..Mr.Justin Schiller on CBS TV on "The Ford Star Jubilee"on The CBS TV Network on Saturday night November 3,1956.
As kids and teens we watched wizard of oz every year.
I havent seen in a while.
Happy beloved birthday to you Ms. Minelli. I wish I could meet you in person, I am a big fan of yours. If you're ever in Albany! NY please come by for a visit.
I first saw The Wizard Of Oz age 3 but remember watching it at age 4 at my Grand Ma s house but dont recall watching it at age 2 or 3 but probably saw it just cant reall until I was 4 !
Lorna looks a lot like teenage Judy and Liza looks more like the Judy after the MGM years when Judy did concerts. Both are classy and lovely women!!
I'm glad they saw this. The wizard of Oz is a wonderful film with great heartfelt messages. For a small child 4-whenever,itc can be scary and disturbing. There is a evil and wicked witch out to kill Dorothy and friends, and those winged flying monkeys. I remember hiding behind the sofa when the Witch and Monkeys were on.
I love Liza in this. She looks beautiful..
Just like her gorgeous mom!
The theme of the Wizard of Oz or the meaning behind it, is everyone wants to leave home and go to a place that is exciting and adventurous and risky. But there are hidden dangers and risks waiting for you when you do this. Dorothy realizes that her home and family was safe. Also she had the love of her family. Being in a forbidden place of decadence and immorality the fun only lasts a small time. As she quotes, "There is no place like home".
Cool story. My great aunt was liza and her sisters nanny when they were young girls. I never met my aunt she lived in california/new York we live in Ireland
Yes The Wizard of Oz
I was most afraid of the MGM lion.
That’s cool I’m still afraid of the thx certified George Lucas? logo when volume is up
Lorna Luft looks and sounds nothing like Judy Garland. In contrast, Liza looks and sounds just like her mother: a star and legend in her own right.
Bahahahahahahahahahahahahehehehehehehhohohohohohoho!
Liza is magical. Lorna is… Lorna😴
Uh…
I wish Liza knew how much her mom suffered from the making of that movie
I liked the special effects, costumes, makeup. I never like the bad guys in movies...my parents had us watch it every year so I ended up tired of it!
Yup
I think I read somewhere that the flying monkeys and the child catcher in Chitty Chitty Bang Bang were two of the characters that children were most scared of in family movies.
Forget the ‘children’. That ‘child catcher’ still creeps me out years later every time, especially when he bends over to see them hiding.
I’m a bigger fan of Chitty Chitty
Can you imagine if this was Brandon Lee talking about the first time he watched his father on the big screen. If there's a clip of this such thing someone pls send me the link
Ok I find so hard to believe that Judy’s children were scared of her being carried away by flying monkeys. If I was traumatized by any scene, I wouldn’t be coming back to The Wizard Of Oz every once in a while!
I love that Liza reminds me so much of my own grandma it's almost uncanny
yeah, wizard of oz was an incredible movie, simply iconic.... but has nobody seen the true behind the scenes the entire cast endured? watch it on TH-cam.
did anyone know in the movie on of the little people hang his self in real life u have to look at it when they were passing the little house u can see it but i love that movie alot i love judy garland i like liza toi think she looks so much like her mother
I love Liza!
Let's go to Kansas Toto
End of the movie Dorothy was exactly back where she started - stay at home and let your dead mothers sister ignore your being upset about Toto biting miss Gulch and believe me - if she didn’t get hurt by the tornado is coming back for Toto . Aunt Elm will just hand the dog over again . Bad plot line a lot of corn . Dorothy didn’t leave home due to being ungrateful she left to protect Toto . Moral of story is that we already possess traits we think we don’t have . Scarecrow doesn’t believe he has a brain yet he figures each step .
I love the z girl
I had a minor obsession with that movie when I was 5
Judy was born in 22’ wouldn’t 1939 make her 17 then? Liza said 13 but wondering is that accurate and filming started earlier?
Garland was 16 when filming started. She was not 13.
Liza was so gorgeous years ago
chile I wake up screaming where's my man
I am slightly terrified of monkeys thanks to this Movie.
I am stilled scared of wizard of oz
IS LIZA MINELLI OKAY? I'm really worried. I'm syncing with you. I JUST FELL ASLEEP TO CAROL BURNETT EPISODE 15. I SLEPT THROUGH EPISODES 15 to the end of episode 21 and opened my eyes and at first I thought I was looking at carol burnett and vickie lawrence AT THE END CREDITS. I WENT OH MY GOD THAT IS LIZA MINELLI DRESSED AS A CLOWN and so I watched the entire episode 21 thinking I had missed you. But your only in the end of that episode. I WOKE UP JUST FOR YOU. I'm not LION. I sure hope nothing is wrong.
Thank you, L and L oxoxox
Documentary biography book's years Tcm movie film party oascr awesome awards

Lorna is so much more ‘normal’ than Liza.
Eastenders John Hughes
another message: dont trust the "authorities"
#TheWizardofId
The two look and sound as one. How about that?
So much exaggeration with actors. I'm pretty sure it wasn't 150 degrees on the set of Wizard of Oz. The tin man alone would have exploded.
The author of The Wizard of Oz wasn't agnostic and the message of the movie is anti-christian
how the booze Liza
Pretty low command dude.
Lorna and Joey are adopted.liza is her only biological child
All 3 are her biological children.
@@caveninit her second husband gave her Lorna and joey
They are Judy’s biological children. Liza’s dad is Vincent Minnelli. Lorna’s and Joey’s dad is Sid Luft
caveninit, Cheree Thompson, and Cecilia Mendoza are correct.
In Fact? Judy gave birth to Mr.Joe Luft..during the time that the Oscars were being broadcast..(Judy was up for another Oscar for her role as"Vicki Lester" in the color musical remake of"A Star Is Born")..but..she lost out to Ms.Grace Kelly(who later became Princess Grace of Monaco).
Why is no one talking about Lorna she is incredible!!
