Renee's Oscar-winning actress really deserved it. It turns out she has been away from the big screen for six years. Judy Garland, who plays Dorothy, the protagonist of The Wizard of Oz. The film mainly tells the days of her last concert in London before her death. Judy died of a drug overdose, and Hollywood, which brought her fame and fortune, was also the cause of her death. Judy became famous at a young age. In order to maintain her figure and maintain her exposure, she needed to lose weight, work non-stop, and suffer from insomnia due to stress. Her 16th birthday was two months ahead of schedule because of the schedule, and she was not allowed to eat a single bite of the cake prepared for her. Correspondingly, when Judy screwed up the London concert and was about to leave, her assistant and piano accompanist prepared the cake, and Judy cut a small corner and tasted it, saying that the cake was delicious. To treat her insomnia, Judy takes sleeping pills every day. The film shows Judy in 1969 interspersed with Judy as a teenager, explaining to the audience why Judy ended up so tragically. At the end of the film, the audience, led by the pair of gay male fans, sang "over the rainbow" with Judy. This scene made my eyes water, and I felt bad for Judy. Finally, Judy said to the audience: "I love you, don't forget me." The film ends abruptly here. Six months after the London concert, Judy died of a sleeping pill overdose.

Oscar finally gave Renee an actress, and she paid tribute to Judy Garland, who never won an Oscar, in her acceptance speech. Loved Renee since BJ's single diary. It is said that in order to play a good BJ, she worked hard on her British accent and ate junk food in order to gain weight. And this time, after a six-year absence from the big screen, Judy finally won an Oscar. What I especially admire about Hollywood actors is that they can act like what they are. For example, Renee lost 30 pounds to play Judy. Her singing level in the film is no less than that of any singer, and her slightly hunchback is so similar to Judy. One can imagine how much homework Renee did before filming began. Many actors in China often regard their normal homework for the role as a great sacrifice, claiming that they are not easy. But compared to actors like Renee, their so-called sacrifices are nothing.

Judy quotes

  • Louis B. Mayer: Your name is Frances Gumm. You're a fat-ankled, snag-toothed rube from Grand Rapids. Your father was a faggot, and your mother only cares about what I think of you. Now do you remember who you are, Judy?

  • [first lines]

    Louis B. Mayer: What do you see beyond this wall? Picture it. You've got an imagination; go ahead. What I see is a small town in the Midwest. A handful of churches, somewhere for the farmers to get drunk together. Maybe a salon for their wives to do their hair on the holidays. I visit these places. These are the people who send us our profits. Who send us your wages. I make movies, Judy, but it's your job to give those people dreams. The economy is in the gutter, and they pay for you. And I'll tell you something else: In every one of those towns, believe me, there's a girl who's prettier than you. Maybe their nose is a little thinner at the bridge; they have better teeth than you; or they're taller, or slimmer. Only you have something none of those pretty girls can ever have. You know what that is?

    Young Judy: No, sir.

    Louis B. Mayer: You have that voice. It will maybe take you to Oz. Some place none of those pretty girls can ever go.
