Magnificent. That’s the voice of Judy Garland. Magnifique. That’s Gay Purr-ee, a charming animated musical featuring the great Garland in one of her final roles. She’s the singing and speaking voice of Mewsette, a French country cat who runs off to Paris during the Gay ’90s. From the UPA studios who brought us Mr. Magoo comes “Gay Purr-ee,” a stylish and sophisticated animated musical about a group of cats in Paris, France. Robert Goulet voices the object of Mewsette’s affection Jaune Tom, with comedic support from Red Buttons as Robespierre. The clever script was devised by animation master Chuck Jones and his wife, Dorothy. The terrific score is by Harold Arlen and E.Y, Harburg, reuniting Garland with the gents who created the songs for “The Wizard of Oz”. Gay Purr-ee is grand entertainment for audiences of all ages.

I love Judy, I love cats, but I have never had any desire to see this film. Simply not into animated movies.
But everyone else enjoy!
I have to buy that!
The cd soundtrack has good stereo sound, but not the blu-ray, which is mono! ! Same thing Warner did with “Mame.” Movie is mono, while cd soundtrack is enjoyable stereo.
I could be wrong, but I have always assumed that there isn’t a stereo mixed track for the films, and WB won’t spend the money to remix it all. Maybe the separate elements for everything not on the soundtracks haven’t survived. I don’t know.
