Short description

Thirty years after starring in "The Wizard of Oz," beloved actress and singer Judy Garland arrives in London to perform sold-out shows at the Talk of the Town nightclub. While there, she reminisces with friends and fans and begins a whirlwind romance with musician Mickey Deans, her soon-to-be fifth husband.

What's left behind the scenes

Renée Zellweger performs Judy's famous songs herself. To prepare, she took vocal lessons with Eric Vetro for a year. Matt Dunkley then served as her musical director, and they rehearsed for four months.
During makeup application, Renée Zellweger's nose was slightly lengthened to more closely resemble Judy Garland's (1922-1969) profile. The actress wore dark gray contact lenses and a special wig.
A loose adaptation of Peter Quilter's play 'End of the Rainbow' (2005).
Prior to the film's release, Liza Minnelli wrote on social media that she had never met or spoken with Renée Zellweger and indicated that she was cool to the idea of a film about Garland, but would not try to prevent it.
