Steve Hayes: Tired Old Queen at the Movies – The Clock

In MGM ‘s wartime romance, THE CLOCK, director Vincente Minnelli takes future wife Judy Garland out of the musical spot light and into the arms of soldier Robert Walker for her first serious, romantic drama. With a supporting cast headed by Keenan Wynn and James Gleason, it’s a delightfully tender and touching, romantic travelogue of New York during World War II and did much to establish Garland as a serious actress. You ‘ll be beguiled by the chemistry of Garland at her loveliest and Walker at his sincerest. – Steve Hayes, Tired Old Queen at the Movies
