Directed by: Vincente Minnelli
Starring: Judy Garland, Lucille Bremer, Margaret O'Brien, Mary Astor
Factual error: There are mountains in the background in several of the scenes, but there aren't actually any mountains in or near St Louis.
Factual error: When Judy Garland is walking around with the neighbor from next door turning down the gas lights throughout the house, the first gas chandelier in the living room that they turn off has a regular light bulb worked with a black plastic switch. (00:39:00)
Audio problem: After Tootie sings 'I Was Drunk Last Night' you see a far away shot where Esther grabs her leg and says 'Tootie you very ba..' Cut to the close up where she repeats 'Tootie you very bad'
Agnes Smith: Rose, what did you get me for Christmas?
Rose Smith: You'll find out tomorrow.
Agnes Smith: I hope it's a hunting knife.
Trivia: In the film, when Margaret O'Brien is sad because she doesn't want to move, she knocks down snowmen and cries hysterically. It is rumored that in real life Margaret was told that her dog died when it really hadn't, just so she would cry. Apparently Margaret O'Brien denies this, claiming this story is not true. She explains that though she didn't feel it was easy to cry, she was able to muster it after being told that June Allyson - her MGM rival in sobbing - could cry on cue.
Question: What is the name of the last song they dance to at the Christmas dance? I know I've heard it before, but I can't put a name on it.
