I never said Liza was beautiful...nor compared her beauty to Audrey...

(who I'm a fan of as well) the debate was who was the better singer... I do agree with you that Judy was prettier (and a better singer) than Liza. The thing I admire about Ms. Minnelli is that she is a survivor. She has survived drug addiction, alcholism, a rather "unusual" childhood, a knee and 2 hip replacements and viral encephalitis!!! She has worked tirelessly on behalf of countless human causes. Yes, she is overweight now..but that happens to MANY people in later years...Her spirit and talent are what I find appealing...
Those never diminish! As to the film with James Mason you remember...that was A Star Is Born also a Warner Bros. release as with the previously mentioned My Fair Lady. IMO Jack Warner made two mistakes with both of these films...one was NOT casting Julie Andrews (already discussed) and the second was cutting MANY of Ms. Garland's scenes from the final cut of her film. IMO that cost Garland the Oscar which went to Grace Kelly for The Country Girl (who IMO was NOT a good actress- but beautiful). If you like Garland, there is a link for a performance of "By Myself" no other artist to my knowledge has ever performed it in this way....

BTW...Patrick ...hope you are doing a little better now in view of your recent loss...you always conduct yourself as a gentleman here...I appreciate that...
