Customer Reviews

What do we want to know about Judy?

If this book only deserved one star, then the other book that was written by Lorna Luft worth nothing.To me, "Me and My Shadow" is nothing but a book that complaint about all the bad things happened in her family by Lorna Luft. She was just trying to condemn everybody in her life and yelled to the whole world that "I am the only victim." We all know about the sad experience in Judy's life. But I want to know that Judy had some happy time, too, especially in the last few years before she left the world.This book narrates in detail what happened to Judy in her very last few years. After finished reading this book, I left with a good feeling because I know that Judy finally found some happiness before she was gone.

The memories of Judys' husband

I don't see what makes people so outraged about this book. I never saw it as reading a biography of Judy. I saw it as a book written by a man who was Judy Garland's friend for over two years, and husband a few months, and his experiences being both. I was charmed when he talked about his surprise honeymoon in Paris for Judy and their starting a home in London, happy and full of bliss for the future. The way he told their story, what charming company Judy was, and how funny she was and so witty... I really felt that they were truly in love and loved each other. They had their little spats, and quick reconciliations. I must admit, though, that Deans' biographical look at Judy is somewhat depressing and a bit too shady for some tastes. But still, when he talks about his last few months with Judy as her husband, it brings a smile to my face... because, now I know, that in her last few days, Judy Garland was indeed- terribly happy.
