Judy

Hosted by Joe Morgenstern Sep. 27, 2019 Entertainment
Renée Zellwegger plays Judy Garland with heart-stopping brilliance in "Judy."

Renée Zellwegger plays Judy Garland with heart-stopping brilliance in "Judy." It's a performance that no one could have predicted, not even on the basis of her bedazzling portrayal of Roxie Hart in "Chicago."  She sets the film on fire every time she sings a Garland classic in her own voice.
