  • I originally uploaded this video in September 2013.
    I edited together two different biopics about 2 different stars, “Child Star: The Shirley Temple Story” with Ashley Rose Orr portraying Shirley, and “Life with JudyGarland: Me and My Shadows” with Tammy Blanchard portraying Judy Garland, to show the behind the scenes drama about the casting of Dorothy Gale in the 1939 movie, “The Wizard of Oz” along with Film clips, newsreel footage, and audio of a live radio performance.

    Soooo glad Judy got the part of Dorothy, she was born to play that role. If Shirley was cast "Somewhere over the Rainbow" would've been a little tap number!

    I could not imagine anyone else playing Dorothy. One of my favourite movies, I always loved to watch it at Christmas when I was a kid. The movie is still magical, 80 years on.

    When Tammy Blanchard came out as Judy in the Wizard of Oz I dropped my lower jaw, she looked just like her.

    I just can't see Shirley singing a song like Over the Rainbow. Shirley was a very talented little girl, but her voice just didn't have the range or power that Judy had.

    I've seen many interviews of Shirley Temple when she was in her early 60s plugging her autobiography and she was asked many times how she felt about not getting the role of Dorothy in "The Wizard of Oz"? Shirley always answered that of course, she had wanted to play Dorothy. She loved the Oz books and the character but in hind sight we all know that Judy Garland was the best actress for the role <3

    Judy Garland was born to play Dorothy. So, glad that Shirley Temple didn't get the part. Even, Shirley said that Judy Garland was born for those ruby slippers and that sometimes the gods know best. And Shirley was right on the money when she said that. I first saw The Wizard of Oz when I was a 4-year-old pre-schooler. That was my first introduction to Judy Garland and I have been smitten with her and the movie ever since. Judy Garland inspired me to want to become a famous singer-actress and The Wizard of Oz is still my favorite movie of all-time. And I still watch The Wizard of Oz to this day even at age 29.

    It's interesting how that dividing line between pubescence and adulthood changes the picture. Shirley was a child. Judy was a young woman. By being a young woman she appeals to a broader audience. If Shirley is in the movie it becomes a Shirley Temple movie. By Judy being in it, it became the Wizard of Oz. A completely different entity.

    Look like they forget about Technicolor shift of colors. In reality, set was colored to look right on Technicolor film, therefore white dress was in fact light pink (to look white on Technicolor) and yellow brick road could not be same yellow as seen in the movie, because it looked green on Technicolor. But it will be confusing for today audience that there were different colors on the set and in finished movie. Because of very low sensitivity, there were multiple lights pointed to every hole, otherwise it will end as pitch black.

    Also dont forgot one of the MGM producers exposed himself to Shirley and he got upset that she laughed at him

    Shirley would have made Over the Rain a whole different theme. Judy Made Dorothy come alive. 💜🕊

    It's hard to believe that Shirley Temple would've been in The Wizard of Oz instead of Judy. I also bet the movie wouldn't have done so well if that happened.

    This scene starts out very interestingly. In the new JUDY film, Judy's relationship with Mayer is much different as well as some other details. Judy had begun writing an autobiography, detailing her thoughts of Mayer among other things, and those were discovered two years before this aired.

    Actually Shirley Temple was closer in age to the character of Dorthy than Judy Garland was. They had to hide her curves so she would look younger. It didn't work though, she still easily looked 16/17
