My Review

“Presenting Lily Mars” is a typical MGM musical featuring Judy Garland as a small-town girl who wants to make it big in show business. Garland is in her prime here, with musical and acting abilities in top form. This was her second adult role, after “For Me and My Gal” of 1942.

Director Norman Taurog performed his duties well enough, with Booth Tarkington adapting the script from his own novel. The outstanding supporting cast from the MGM stable of performers includes Van Heflin, Fay Bainter, Richard Carlson, Spring Byington, Marta Eggerth, Connie Gilchrist, and Tommy Dorsey and Bob Crosby with their orchestras. “Presenting Lily Mars” was successful with the general public for producer Joe Pasternak and Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer.
