Meet Me in St. Louis

ComedyDramaFamilyMusicalRomance114 min

In 1903 St. Louis, the Smith family moves through summer romances, sibling rivalries, Halloween pranks, and Christmas traditions as the 1904 World’s Fair draws near—until their father’s job transfer threatens to send them all to New York. Judy Garland is Esther, the romantic daughter eyeing the boy next door, while Margaret O’Brien’s Tootie sees the year’s upheavals with a child’s mix of mischief and alarm. Structured around the seasons, Vincente Minnelli’s musical follows a bustling middle-class household whose everyday routines and family celebrations are tied closely to their city and the life they may have to leave behind.
