| Ozus' World Movie ReviewsDennis SchwartzThe combo of Judy and Mickey was magical, and makes for an entertaining film despite its many flaws. |
| User ReviewNicolette HThe first movie that Judy Garland and Mickey Rooney did together... She is a darling as always and Mickey so funny... Really cute movie that I'll definitely watch more that once. "I have new shoes" =) |
| User ReviewGregory WThoroughbreds Don't Cry (1937) -- [4.0] -- This was an early film for both Judy Garland and Mickey Rooney, and their first together. With Ronald Sinclair they form an insufferably sweet trio who ride horses and sing songs. I suppose it's possible this appealed to general audiences in the late `30s, but it doesn't date well. |
