Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer (MGM)
Starring: Judy Garland, Mickey Rooney
Directed by: Busby Berkeley

Synopsis: Jimmy Connors (Mickey Rooney) and Mary Holden (Judy Garland) decide to put on a show to raise money for a chance to play with Paul Whiteman.

Cat Burglars (Scene Stealers): One scene begins with Mary in her garden sitting next to some kittens which are drinking from a saucer of milk.

Mary picks up one of the kittens and warns that it’s eating so fast it’s going to get sick. She hugs the kitten as she says this.

Jimmy comes running, leaping over hedges to reach her. As he slides to a halt in front of her, the kitten is completely spooked, burrowing its head in Mary’s chest.

Mary and Jimmy then move away from the cats and Mary drops the kitten gently on the ground.

Final Mewsings: Kittens are apparently scared of Mickey Rooney.
