One of the first films to integrate musical numbers into the plot, it explores, without condescension or simplemindedness, the feelings that drive the family members apart and then bring them back together again.

The film really belongs to Garland and O'Brien. They make each scene they share pure magic, exuding an effortless confidence which lights up the screen, with the rest of the cast reduced to mere bystanders.

A paean to the nuclear family and the fertile soil where it ostensibly grows best-the American Midwest.

Judy Garland has never been more spirited or more poignant.
