If you’re in England from December 16th through February 9th, be sure to attend one of the screenings of Meet Me in St. Louis. The highly anticipated Blu-ray will be released next week, but as we all know, there’s nothing like watching a great MGM Musical on the big screen! Be sure to check out the other MGM Musicals that are a part of the BFI’s season of MGM Musicals.
What’s great about this season is that it’s nationwide, and not solely in one city, giving many people a chance to enjoy these classics on the big screen who might not have previously had the chance.
Stay tuned to this blog for a special contest announcement in the next several days…!
Meet Me in St Louis
Dir. Vincente Minnelli | 1944
Returning once more to the big screen, Judy Garland dazzles in Vincente Minnelli’s classic musical, Meet Me in St Louis. Charting the ups and downs of the well-to-do Smith family as their beautiful city is on the verge of hosting the spectacular 1904 World’s Fair; the film embodies the very essence of nostalgia and remains a firm favourite for families everywhere. Made during WWII, Meet Me in St Louis is a delightful musical film – and one of the greatest musicals ever made.
Enjoy its spectacular magic at BFI Southbank and in selected cinemas nationwide from 16 December.
