或許 Judy Garland (1922年6月10日- 1969年6月22日) 對這一代人來說十分陌生，但其實這位美國演員是家喻戶曉的電影《綠野仙蹤》（The Wizard of Oz）女主角 Dorothy。2歲半就開始跟著家中兩位姊姊登台表演的她，在1939年以16歲之齡，主演這部出自美高梅公司MGM的電影，成為當紅童星。她在電影中唱下 “Over the Rainbow”，可以說是最經典的電影歌曲之一。
16歲正值青春期成長階段，她卻原來要忍受MGM公司的不人道身材管理，為了控制Judy的體重，公司只讓她吃黑咖啡及雞湯，並需要每隔四小時服下控制食慾的藥，每天抽多根香煙。其後，傳聞為了讓她維持「童星」形象，公司還逼她在19歲墮胎。一連串的舉措令公司成功以 Judy 獲得可觀收入，卻在這位小女生的心理及生理上造成負面影響，亦為她其後服食精神科藥物埋下伏筆。
I've always taken 'The Wizard of Oz' very seriously, you know. I believe in the idea of the rainbow. And I've spent my entire life trying to get over it.

1969年，Judy 在倫敦因服用過量藥物離世，享年47歲。在短暫卻絢麗的人生當中，這位一代巨星獲獎無數。愛唱歌的這位歌舞演員，除了憑《綠野仙蹤》榮獲奧斯卡金像獎青少年演員獎外，她還獲得過金球獎終身成就獎、兩座格林美獎及一座東尼特別獎，更成為美國同志的偶像。
2019年上映的電影《Judy》，訴說了她人生最後那年，風采猶存卻飽受藥物帶來的精神折磨，正好帶大家領略這位一代巨星讓人心痛的一面。今年 Renée Zellweger 正是憑這部電影，以出色細膩的演技榮獲奧斯卡最佳女主角，登上影后寶座。
若她在生，今年已是98歲了。以下，一起回看 Judy Garland 最美豔的14張照片，感受這位美國傳奇女演員的經典之處。
