A Date with Judy is a 1948 MGM musical film starring Wallace Beery, Jane Powell, and Elizabeth Taylor. Directed by Richard Thorpe, the movie was based on the radio series of the same name. The film was photographed in stunning Technicolor and largely served to showcase the blossoming beauty of former child star Elizabeth Taylor, age 16 at the time. Taylor was given the full MGM glamor treatment, including specially designed gowns. Robert Stack appears in a prominent supporting role. Many others in the MGM stock company appear in their customary roles, including Leon Ames as a dignified father figure, the same role he played in the classic Judy Garland film Meet Me in St. Louis (1944) and Wallace Beery in his penultimate role as a contrasting "rough and ready" father figure. The film features the strong soprano singing voice of young Jane Powell, and is also a showcase for the musical performances of the Latin American singer Carmen Miranda and Xavier Cugat. In this film, she is given to humorous malapropisms such as "His bite is worse than his bark" and "Now I'm cooking with grass". The songs Judaline and It's a Most Unusual Day also debuted in this film. LESS
