From Tammy Blanchard

I think that kids need to grow up watching what I grew up watching - great entertainment; you know, Judy Garland and all these musicals that bring song and dance and acting all together in a polished way.

From Tammy Blanchard

The thing that I really love about film is that it is with you forever - it goes to your children, and they get to see it again and again and have it forever.

From Tammy Blanchard
