Ever notice when she's saying goodbye to them, the Scarecrow has real tears in his eyes? No one could fake that! It's the most touching scene in the whole movie.
how old was she when she made this movie...she was still young and there where no child labor laws back then so they worked her to the bone..giving her pills to stay awake and pills to sleep..at least thats what I've heard..
much ado about nothing, what i need tosee are the scenes where Judy forgot to wear her red shoes during filming and they now use horriable glitering sparks on the shoes.
Yes, as a child, she had such trouble keeping a straight face during funny scenes that filming would have to be suspended until she got herself together. This was said to have happened in multiple films that she made. In The Wizard of Oz, Victor Fleming took her aside, gave her a lecture, and slapped her to make her get herself together. Later on, though, he felt terrible about doing it and apologized.
But her smile here is very well known and documented. Judy cracked up repeatedly, forcing the scene to be reshot a few times. Finally, just before the take seen in this clip, the director walked up to her and slapped her face to get her to refocus and concentrate on her work. Amazingly, he wasn't able to smack the smile off her face, just the laughter, as evidenced by this clip!
@mmdillon1 wow, I didn't know that! I have GOT to get more Wizard of Oz stuff... but of course Bert Lahr is so ridiculous in this scene, I don't blame her.
@ferociousgumby you don't think Hollywood can fake tears?!? oh, you sweet, naive little creature!

Look closely. She's not laughing. She's puckering her lips to kiss the dog which from a side angle looks as if she is laughing.
