Meet Me in St. Louis (1944)

★★★★★

Meet Me in St. Louis is a 1944 film based from a series of short stories by Sally Benson, of a family living in St. Louis during the time of the Louisiana Purchase Exposition World's Fair (aka Saint Louis World's Fair) in 1904. Staring Judy Garland as Esther Smith, and directed by Vincente Minnelli. Filled with song, the most beautiful selection of colors, and sweet romance. Add to that a heartfelt family film, and you couldn't ask for more. One of the best known and loved holiday songs "Have Yourself a Merry Little Christmas" made it's first introduction, sung by Judy Garland, for near the ending of this film.
