Description:
St. Louis 1903. The well-off Smith family has four beautiful daughters, including Esther and little Tootie. 17-year old Esther has fallen in love with the boy next door who has just moved in, John. He however, barely notices her at first. The family is shocked when Mr. Smith reveals that he has been transfered to a nice position in New York, which means that the family has to leave St. Louis and the St. Louis Fair.
Amazon.com essential video:
One of the finest American musicals, this 1944 film by Vincente Minnelli is an intentionally self-contained story set in 1903, in which a happy St. Louis family is shaken to their roots by the prospect of moving to New York, where the father has a better job pending. Judy Garland heads the cast in what amounts to a splendid, end-of-an-era story that nicely rhymes with the onset of the 20th century. The film is extraordinarily alive, the characters strong, and the musical numbers are so splendidly part of the storytelling that you don't feel the film has stopped for an interlude. --Tom Keogh

Rating: - Meet me in St. Louis
The provider gave customer a calendar and Christmas card. Someone who maybe a complete stranger gave some holiday cheer to another stranger is always a plus. Movie was excellent and would buy from seller again.
Rating: - Five Stars Forever - CLASSIC
There are many things to love about this film.Where to begin?Judy Garland - lovely and lyrical as Esther Smith, one of four sisters of an upper class St. Louis family circa 1903/1904.She's the heart of the story and her romance with "The Boy Next Door" (Tom Drake) is just plain sweet.Among many great songs she sings in the film standouts include the song mentioned above, Academy Award-nominated "The Trolley Song ("clang, clang, clang went the trolley...") and "Have Yourself a Merry Little ...

Rating: - "...We could be happy anywhere as long as we're together!'
This is my favorite line in a nearly flawless movie uttered by Judy Garland at the climax of the memorable Christmas sequence, perfectly capturing the spirit of family that permeates this film.If you're looking for a film that promotes the family unit in a positive light, search no further. Or, if you're a fan of the golden age of the Hollywood musical, this is the touchstone, the film that revolutized the genre in the same way "Oklahoma!" did to the Broadway musical. There are no big production ... Read More
Rating: - Excellent service
The CD was as advertised.The price was terrific and with free delivery it beats going shopping at a retail store.Meet Me In St.Louis is a classic, great family film and should be shown in every grade school.
Rating: - It Doesn't Get Any Better Than This
Vincent Minelli's period musical is about a family to whom . . . well, nothing really happens in this movie. But if you can give yourself over to its message that (once again) there's no place like home, you'll see that this picture is a thing of pure beauty.
A wonderful score, the most beautiful use of Technicolor you may ever see, and Judy Garland. What's most remarkable about this movie is the complexity of its delivery. Yes, it presents a rose-colored picture of good old days that ... Read More
