From the press release:
Till the Clouds Roll By begins with a glorious, musical-within-a-musical recreation of the 1927 opening of Jerome Kern’s Broadway smash Show Boat and bookends itself with a grand finale that has Frank Sinatra singing “Ol’ Man River,” the “Show Boat” number Ol’ Blue Eyes would reprise throughout his career. From start to finish, this biopic about renowned stage-and-screen composer Kern (played by Robert Walker) features 25 stars and a nearly equal number of Kern tunes.
Highlights: Judy Garland asks, “Who?” to a bevy of top-hatted admirers, Dinah Shore hauntingly recalls “The Last Time I Saw Paris,” and Lena Horne just “Can’t Help Lovin ‘Dat Man.” So many great stars. So many great songs, now all restored to their fullest Technicolor luster from the film’s original nitrate negatives exclusively for this Warner Archive Blu-ray release!

Wow, this is amazing!! No other year has boasted this many Garland titles. That being said, I’m gonna pass on “Kelly”, as I don’t care for the film at all, and personally consider it Garland’s worst post-“Oz” Freed film. However, I’m still very happy for other fans who love it. Great holiday news!
I find that fast forwarding through the Charles Winninger parts helps when watching “Kelly.” It’ll be great to have her songs in HD.
I’m really excited about “Clouds” – I think “Who?” is Garland at her very apex at MGM. She’s healthy, happy, and in total command of her talent. And so lovely. It’s a real star turn. That will look great remastered in HD. 🙂
Judy is great but Winninger ruins this for me . . . . .
