Museum and a Movie: Meet Me in St. Louis

Travel back to turn-of-the-century America in Meet Me in St. Louis (1944), MGM’s musical love letter to family, tradition, and the excitement of a world on the brink of change. Set against the backdrop of the 1904 St. Louis World’s Fair, the film follows the lives of the Smith family through a year of seasonal joys and bittersweet transitions. Come early for a 6:15pm guided tour of World’s Fairs: Visions of Tomorrow and then stay for Judy Garland debuting such classic standards as “The Trolley Song,” “The Boy Next Door,” and “Have Yourself a Merry Little Christmas” in one of her most beloved roles.

Presented with the Miami Film Festival, with support from the mayor and city commission of the City of Miami Beach.
