Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_1'); })Released in 1946, this MGM Musical film is based on the 1942 novel by Samuel Hopkins Adams. Directed by George Sidney, this Western-themed story pits characters played by Judy Garland and Angela Lansbury in a love triangle with John Hodiak. Set in the 1890s, the film follows the waitresses from the chain of Harvey House restaurants, who set up a new establishment in the Wild West town of Sandrock, Arizona. They have their work cut out for them, because there's already a saloon in town, with plenty of drinking, gambling and dancing girls as the local entertainment - and they're not keen on having to compete with a more respectable establishment.Judy Garland plays Susan Bradley, a woman travelling to Sandrock to answer a blind marriage proposal. As her luck would have it, said husband is about thirty years her senior and even his personality won't cut it - since John Hodiak's Ned Trent was the one who wrote the love letters for him. And he's the one who runs the saloon. Susan joins the Harvey Girls and becomes part of the competition. Angela Lansbury plays Em, the main dancer in the saloon.Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_2'); })Cyd Charisse had her first acting credit here, playing Harvey Girl waitress Deborah. The film also won an Oscar for "Best Original Song" for Harry Warren and Johnny Mercer's "On the Atchison, Topeka and the Santa Fe". | |

Artistic License – History | |
The Harvey Girls / int_56515a39 | comment |
Artistic License – History: Em sings the song "Oh You Kid", which was written in 1909, long after the film's 19th century setting. Admittedly, new lyrics were written for the film. The waltz is introduced as a "new dance". It had been known in the United States since the 1830s, long before the film takes place.Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_3'); }) | |

Artistic License – Geography | |
The Harvey Girls / int_e9f517e1 | comment |
Artistic License – Geography: There are references to a nearby town called Flagstaff being a mining town. Flagstaff was actually a lumbering town and had no mines. The scenery shown (agave, saguaro cactus) is more typical of southern New Mexico, but the ATSF ran along northern New Mexico (whose scenery is quite different). | |
