2006 Was Another Year of Great Events, New Releases, and Accolades for and About Judy Garland’S Great Talent and Body of Work
2006 was another year of great events, new releases, and accolades for and about Judy Garland’s great talent and body of work. The biggest news for this past year was the discovery of two of the lost Decca recordings that Judy made in 1935. Thought to be lost forever, these recordings were transferred to digital format and put up for auction (see following page for details). The other big news for the year would have to be the highly successful release of the Judy Garland stamp on what would have been Judy’s 84th birthday, June 10, 2006 (see following page for details) June 2006 could well be remembered as the best “Judy Garland Month” ever! We had the stamp release, two new CDs, over 10 DVDs, the Judy Garland Festival in Minnesota, and more! Plus, The Judy Room has a new look! Beginning in Summer 2006, I began making “vintage magazine covers” the theme of the homepage (see the thumbnails below). These covers reflect the change in seasons and special events or holidays while also fondly looking back to golden age of fan magazines . A BIG THANK YOU to “Alex in Belgium” for his masterful photo colorization. I would like to extend a special thanks and appreciation to Eric Hemphill, Scott Schechter, “tinman”, Donald, and everyone else who has helped to make The Judy Room a success. I hope you all know that I couldn’t do this without you. THANK YOU! Sincerely, Scott Brogan The Judy Room JANUARY 12, 2006: The Recording Industry Association Of America (RIAA) announces their Grammy Hall Of Fame inductees, and the 1956 M-G-M Records soundtrack to The Wizard Of Oz is included. -

ANNA KARENINA on the LARGE and SMALL SCREEN Peter Cochran
1 ANNA KARENINA ON THE LARGE AND SMALL SCREEN Peter Cochran Edmund Goulding, 1927; Clarence Brown, 1935; Julien Duvivier, 1948; Rudolph Cartier, 1961; Alexandr Zarkhi, 1967; Basil Coleman, 1977; Simon Langton, 1985; Bernard Rose, 1997; David Blair, 2000; Sergei Solovyov, 2005; Joe Wright, 2012 It seems impossible to make a fully-balanced film or television version of Tolstoy’s Anna Karenina . Despite the film-makers’ best intentions, something always goes wrong. The main problem is that the films are, for the most part, two hundred years behind Tolstoy in moral complexity, and in frankness about love, sex, and human relations. Not until the year 2000 do they catch up with him. As a result, most early twentieth-century films represent, not a reaction to Tolstoy, but a deflection of attention away from him. The novel is either a beautiful tale of doomed romance, or a dissection of the way the female sexual impulse wreaks havoc if given too loose a rein … or both. Most films opt for the former interpretation, as more marketable. There are some things which novels can do but which films can’t: At the very moment when Vronsky thought that now was the time to overtake Mahotin, Frou-Frou herself, understanding his thoughts, without any incitement on his part, gained ground considerably, and began getting alongside of Mahotin on the most favorable side, close to the inner cord. Mahotin would not let her pass that side. Vronsky had hardly formed the thought that he could perhaps pass on the outer side, when Frou-Frou shifted her pace and began overtaking him on the other side. -
Films from the THIRTIES: PART II 1935-39
t% The Museum of Modern Art 1] West 53 Street, New York, N.Y. 10019 Tel. 245-3200 Cable: Modernart No. 83 FOR RELEASE: Friday, August 25, I968 Films from THE THIRTIES: PART II 1935-39 The Museum of Modern Art, will present a retrospective of films from the thirties beginning August 23, and running through October 6. The Thirties, according to Willard Van Dyke, Director of the Department of Film, will consist of 39 pictures, representing some of the richest creative talent in American cinema at a time that has been called "the dear, dead days not beyond recall." Two years ago the Museum presented The Thirties, U.S.A., Part I, covering the first half of the decade. The films being shown now as Part II were made from 1935 ^^ 193 '• Among the pictures to be shown are: Frank Capra's "Lost Horizon"; Paul Muni in "The Life of Emile Zola," the Story of a Northern Jew's lynching in the South; the great thriller "Night Must Fall," an adaptation of the Emlyn Williams play starring Robert Montgomery; and "The Good Earth," a spectacle film in black and white, from Pearl Buck's popular novel, for which Luise Rainer won her second Academy Award, with Paul Muni in the starring role. The latter part of the thirties was characterized by further achievements in the musical film, largely due to the talents of Fred Astaire, who with Ginger Rogers starred in "Top Hat," and "Shall We Dance," both of which are in the retrospective. The most important contributions to the annals of films made in the thirties was the series of "snowball" comedies Hollywood turned out at a time of grim, economic hardships. -

Captains Courageous (1937)
Captains Courageous (1937) Inform the rich brats of the world. At some point they're going to meet real salt of the earth folk who'll teach them the true meaning of life, or at least you might think so from the dozens and dozens of movies built around that theme. Perhaps the best is the 1937 Captains Courageous, based on Rudyard Kipling's novel, which earned Spencer Tracy his first Best Actor Oscar. The story couldn't be more simple: Freddie Bartholomew is Harvey, a spoiled tycoon's son, who always gets his way through buying, whining or simple lying. On a trip to Europe he falls off the luxury ship only to awaken aboard a small Gloucester fishing boat. Naturally Bartholomew immediately starts giving orders only to learn that he's not the boss here and in fact will have to wait until the fishermen finish their haul in another two or three months before he can contact his father. Faced with such unyielding circumstances Bartholomew has little choice but to find out more about Tracy and his life. Spencer Tracy had misgivings about playing Manuel, the fisherman. He was first approached while filming Libeled Lady (1936) and felt that the fisherman was too secondary to the boy's part to be of real interest. It took director Victor Fleming (Red Dust, 1932) and Tracy's wife to convince him to take the role. Tracy still had reservations about getting his hair curled (at the studio, Joan Crawford kidded him for looking like Harpo Marx) and having to sing.
