Judy Garland was on the cusp of mega-stardom when she played the tenacious ‘Pinkie’ Wingate, a girl determined that her widowed mother would remarry for love, not money. Holding her own against a cast of box-office heavyweights, Garland offers hints of Dorothy Gale in her performance – no more so than when she sings ‘Zing! Went the Strings of My Heart.’
