Review of Bubbles

Bubbles (1930)
2/10
Tap Tap
4 December 2012
Warning: Spoilers
There are few reasons to watch this short. Chief among them is the short appearance of the Gumm sisters and their most famous member, Judy Garland - 9 years prior to her following the yellow brick road. She does stand out at the head of the camera during the Gumms brief dance number. This film was thought lost until recently.

If you like tap dance, there is plenty of that. If you like equally forgettable 1930's music, that is another reason.

The last reason is like watch the early 10 minute silent Wizard of Oz, so you can claim to have seen it. Now that Turner Classic ran it and I saw it, I can make that claim.

I am glad they found this film. Many films in that era remain lost. Sadly we lost Judy long ago so there is a treasure value like finding something nice in a garage sale.
