Musical Matinees: MEET ME IN ST. LOUIS (1944)

Judy Garland stars in the classic MGM romantic musical comedy, "Meet Me in St. Louis." The film focuses on four sisters (one of whom is the nonpareil Judy Garland) on the cusp of the 1904 St. Louis World's Fair. It spotlights the sisters' education in the ways of the world, which includes, but isn't limited to, learning about life and love, courtesy of the prototypical boy next door. In the end, love -- accompanied by song, dance and period costumes, all in glorious Technicolor -- conquers all.
