THE PIRATE 35mm d. Vincente Minnelli, 1948 (12 JUN 15:50) / Part of JUDY GARLAND: A STAR IS REBORN at BFI Southbank:
“A box-office flop on release, over the years The Pirate has been rightly reappraised and recognised for containing one of Garland’s finest comedic performances. In this lush Technicolor marvel Garland is reunited with Gene Kelly and together they light up the screen as he masquerades as the mysterious pirate she fantasises about, even though she’s engaged to someone else.” (BFI)
