In January 2017, Judy's coffin was removed from the mausoleum at Ferncliff Cemetery in Hartsdale, New York and sent to Los Angeles, California's Hollywood Forever Cemetery for a private family crypt. The decision of relocating Judy's coffin came from her children since there was no room in her burial spot for her children to join her. Her children purchased a large family crypt to ensure they would be laid to rest with their mother. Coincidently, she was laid to rest in the same cemetery as her childhood friends and costar Mickey Rooney.
Though meticulously recreated, two elements of "The Trolley Song" are not in keeping with the original: Judy Davis is clearly two decades older than Garland appeared at age 22, and the style and hue of her wig are far cries from the iconic one Garland originally wore. At the time this show was aired, there was a general consensus that Davis took over the role from Tammy Blanchard too soon in the story, as Blanchard (age 23 during filming) would have been more believable portraying Garland's young adult years at MGM.
Garland's second Oscar nomination, for supporting actress in Jugement à Nuremberg (1961) is not even mentioned.
Meryl Streep, during her Emmy Award acceptance speech for Angels in America (2003), stated that "No one has put a better performance on film than Judy Davis in 'Life with Judy Garland: Me and My Shadows' (2001)."
