Judy Garland

With all the ballyhoo I'd heard over the years about Judy Garland being hired and fired from this movie, I was expecting the part of Helen Lawson to be much bigger. She basically disappears from the middle of the movie. I have to say I'd love to see what Garland would have done with the part, as she really never got to play a tough character. And it would have been fun to get to hear her actually sing that Plant My Tree number rather than having it dubbed for Hayward.
