Editorial Review:
Amazon.com:
The promise of "One Hundred Beautiful Girls on Horseback" and a personal appearance by the Tommy Dorsey orchestra are among the enticements of this 1943 MGM musical, a typical installment in the Mickey Rooney/Judy Garland let's-put-on-a-show genre. Not typical is the quality of the songbook, which trots out some sublime George and Ira Gershwin tunes: "Embraceable You," "Fascinating Rhythm," and a meltingly plaintive Garland solo on "But Not for Me." The plot has rich kid Rooney, energized as usual, sent away to a boys' school in the Wild West as a way of containing his mania (see title). The only gal in town is Judy, the granddaughter of the school's dean. The stars are affectionately matched, and musical fans will enjoy the young June Allyson belting out a spunky "Treat Me Rough." Rooney's comedy routine, imitating various radio personalities (including boxing champ Joe Louis), is one of those topical bits that will almost certainly puzzle viewers today. The director is Norman Taurog, an MGM workhorse who would later helm many of Elvis Presley's desultory vehicles. Busby Berkeley staged the rave-up finale to "I Got Rhythm," but the most beguiling production number is "Bidin' My Time," sung by Garland and some cowpokes--a droll performance with surrealistic flourishes. Girl Crazy seems no better or worse than the average musical of the era, but it was a huge hit, and Rooney would never reach this pinnacle of box-office success again. --Robert Horton

tHE BEST SONGS FROM THE FILM ARE ALL HERE. VERY REPRESENTATIVE OF THE TIME PERIOD AND CARRIES TO VOICES OF JUDY GARLAND AND HER FAMOUS CO-STAR M ROONEY. THE MOOD AND FLAVOR OF THE TIME IS WELL REPRESENTED.

These studios need to release these old musicals on DVD now! We want to enjoy them in all their glory and only remastered DVD will allow that! With a sound track like this its a shame that its not on Dolby Re-Mastered Digital !!!

Girl Crazy is the story of a playboy Danny (Mickey Rooney) from New York whose father has had enough of his behavior. He is sent to an all boy's school out in the west where the boys get up promptly at 5:45, rarely shower, and find solace in riding horses all day. Danny certainly doesn't fit in, but he finds he can't complain too much thanks to the presence of Ginger (Judy Garland), the Dean's grand daughter and one of the prettiest girls he's ever seen. When the school is threatened to close, the ... Read More

at the pinnacle together, in their best & last musical. Judy stayed up there a little longer & Mickey started his decline. Plot? Irrelevant, except to say that Mickey Rooney's character was... girl crazy. It just took up the time between singing & dancing with Tommy Dorsey's band supplying the sound & the Gershwins the music & lyrics, some of their best remembered is in this movie. Mickey Rooney, Judy Garland, Tommy Dorsey, Ira & George Gershwin.
But there's more!

Put aside any preconceptions about "Mickey and Judy" movies. In fact, just put aside the film entirely. Buy this CD for the music and you'll be glad you did.
Hugh Martin and Ralph Blaine, soon to be famous for their score for "Meet Me in St. Louis," gave this Gershwin score (the best of all their shows), the five-star treatment with fantastic vocal arrangements - though I'm sure Roger Edens also had a hand in there.
What you get are versions that make these great songs ... Read More
