Judy Garland turned in still another phenomenal performance in 1963's "I Could Go On Singing."
As a singer touring England, Garland lets out the secret that she is the mother of Dirk Bogarde's son. Bogarde had passed the boy off as his adopted son so as not to humiliate his wife. The problem is that the latter is now dead and Garland is ready to fulfill her motherly role. Or, is she?
Garland emits the same emotion that she did as Vickie Lester in 1954's "A Star is Born." While Bogarde is good as her former boy friend, could you imagine what James Mason could have done for this part? Imagine re-teaming Mason and Garland in a motion picture.
There is a surprising nice small supporting performance by Jack Klugman as Garland's manager. He warns her that she might have to go to court against Bogarde to prove that she is the mother of his child. What would that do to her career?
While all this is going on, Garland fabulously belts out "I'll Go My Way By Myself," as well as the title song.
It is amazing to me that in a very weak best actress category of 1963, that Garland was not nominated for best actress here.
