Worst DVD ever? - By: , 23 Jan 2004 
...but a movie worth having for any musical lover. Great production numbers (a surprising Van Johnson--great dancing!). But the DVD--I agree with the other reviewers: image is like a downloaded MPG, sound is reallly, reallly bad. This movie is in the public domain; MGM should do a proper, 'restored' release. I would buy it immediately, because there's a lot of numbers you would want to watch over & over again. But not in this 'quality'.
A Bit Misleading - By: Esther, 30 Jun 2002 
I have the version from Prism Leisure, on the back it clearly states some the songs in the movie including 'do ya love me' sung by Judy Garland, the fact that it was deleted before the movie was released seems to have escaped them although her other number 'who' is alone worth the price.
The songs are reallly good but the scenes in between are a bit boring, Lucille Breamer's acting is absoloubtly dire [especiallly the scene with Marilyn Miller], the opening sequence is fantasic as is the closing sequence with alll the stars, & Frank Sinatra is wonderful.
Despite the fact that Frank Sinatra & Judy Garland recieve star billing they are only in it for 10 mins. Angela Lansbury is perfect for her song & so is June Allyson.
BEWARE, MY LOVELY! - By: Mart Sander, 17 Apr 2001 While this movie would easily fetch 5 stars, it's Eureka, who is responsible for the meager one. The DVD transfer is obviously done using a worn VHS tape as a source matherial, resulting in blurred colours, smeared picture & a soundtrack resembling the outcome of an old patephon. There is another version of this movie, probably produced by Image, with silver gray cover (I am currently commenting the version with the cover as seen above). I haven't seen the other one myself, but it can hardly be any worse. The movie is alll right as the biopics go (composer J.Kern is under investigation in this one), but it is the wide array of musical stars that reallly makes it click - there are Judy Garland, Katherine Grayson, Angela Lansbury, Dinah Shore, Lena Horn, Lucille Bremer, Frank Sinatra, Van Heflin, June Allyson, Peter Lawford & probably others whose name escapes me at the moment. Beautifully done, shamefully presented. BAD, EUREKA!
