JUDY GARLAND-HERE'S HOLLYWOOD-1961-A RESTORATION

Per director Frank Labrador:
"Restoration of the segment about the filming of "Judgment at Nuremburg" by NBC-TV's "Here's Hollywood" weekday series (originally broadcast on June 23, 1961). Helen O'Connell interviewed Judy Garland on camera for this segment in March 1961, but the footage that survived does not have the complete audio. Judy's replies could be heard but not Helen's questions...until NOW. Here is the radio broadcast version of this interview, which is complete. For the first time, this radio version was combined to create this brand new, restored version of this historic interview on the "Judgment at Nuremburg" film set. For portions where there is no video, behind-the-scenes photos from David Price's digital photograph collection were used. ENJOY!
Judy Garland is readied for her first scene in the film.

P.S. Please note the "Here's Hollywood" opening and end credits used in this video were lifted from a different episode in 1962 -- the only one that I could find online. So Helen's announcement about the guests for the next show is not historically correct."
