This
Mickey Rooney and Judy Garland musical is about the children of vaudeville
parents putting on their own variety show. Rooney is great with enough energy
in his little body to run a city. And his chemistry with Garland is perfect,
which explains why they made so many films together. There’s some cute scenes
here and there but unfortunately there’s a minstrel show finale with all these
kids in black face that’s distractingly offensive and cringe-worthy. Could have
been more enjoyable I guess if not for that segment. Grade: B-
