Judy is a 2019 biographical and drama film about the life of American actress and singer Judy Garland in 1968 as she arrives in London for a run of sell-out concerts at the Talk of the Town. Directed by Rupert Goold, it is an adaptation of the Olivier- and Tony-nominated West End and Broadway play End of the Rainbow by Peter Quilter. The film stars Renée Zellweger as Garland, with Jessie Buckley, Finn Wittrock, Rufus Sewell, and Michael Gambon in supporting roles.[1][2]

The film had its world premiere at the Telluride Film Festival on 30 August 2019 and was theatrically released in the United States on 27 September 2019, and is scheduled to be in the United Kingdom on 2 October 2019. The film received generally positive reviews from critics, who lauded Zellweger's performance.

Zellweger is great, but the movie feels somewhat pedestrian and every scene without her feels amateurish (particularly the flashbacks, where the acting is TV-movie level).

I liked the scenes of her as a kid filming the Wizard of Oz, but i honestly don't think the main storyline of the 60's is presented in any sort of interesting way. Bohemian Rhapsody and A Star is Born covered similar ground. Zellwegger is good, but i don't think the role is that well written. She spends the whole movie making the same face.
