Vincente Minnelli’s classic musical features Judy Garland in the prime of her career at MGM, but the film’s real star is its heartfelt, charming story. As the affluent Smith family anxiously awaits the arrival of the 1904 St. Louis World’s Fair, patriarch Alonzo (Leon Ames) announces they’re moving to New York, threatening to upheave the idyllic life they all adore. Featuring the classic “Have Yourself a Merry Little Christmas,” the film also stars Margaret O’Brien, who won a special Juvenile Oscar for her portrayal as the precocious youngest daughter, Tootie.
