Every Sunday (1936)
Silly and Contrived but Works!
21 July 2011
This short film featured two of Hollywood's youngest and rising actresses and singers, Deanna Durbin and Judy Garland. While they would star in their own films, they play best friends who attend Sunday concerts in the park. Deanna's grandfather is the conductor and the turnout is low. When the park directors threaten to shut him and the band down on Sundays, the best friends get to work, ringing doorbells and calling everybody in the phone book for a free concert in the park on Sundays. Well, they had high expectations. When they fall short, they take a drastic move in making it a success. The Sunday Concert in the Park is free to all and they want the people to appreciate it. When Deanna sings, crowds start moving toward the sound. Judy of course sings but she has her own style. Deanna's style is more opera and soprano while Judy could have probably been a soprano or opera type but she was more easy and friendly with the music in her selection. It's still worth it just to see both of them so young.
