	The Wizard of Oz (1939 film) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The re-release of the movie to theaters for a time in the late 1990s settled this issue, as the picture was large enough to reveal the truth that the small TV screen had made to seem ambiguous.
		Wizard of Oz collectibles, such as autographs and props from the film, are among the most sought-after of all movie memorabilia.
		The Wizard who encourages and profits from the defeat of the Western Witch turns out to be another version of the same flimflam man she met at home, a cynical politician who realizes that none of Dorothy's allies truly require anything that they didn't already have.

	Review: Wizard of Oz, The (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-06)
		Although the 1939 version was not the first filmed adaptation of the book (the Internet Movie Database lists at least two silent movies, including one with Oliver Hardy as the Tin Man, that preceded Fleming's), it is without a doubt the definitive one.
		Another aspect of The Wizard of Oz that immediately arrests the attention is the film's use of fl-and-white (actually brown-and-white) and the vivid hues of Technicolor.
		It takes a rare movie to make a viewer even think of it as "fl and white" or "color," but, because The Wizard of Oz puts meaning into appearance (much like the recently-released Pleasantville), the nature of the visual composition become crucial.

	The Wizard Of Oz (1939)
		The Wizard of Oz (1939) is everybody's cherished favorite, perennial fantasy film musical from MGM during its golden years.
		After travels down a Yellow Brick Road to the Land of Oz, and the defeat of the Wicked Witch of the West, Dorothy and her friends are rewarded by the Wizard of Oz with their hearts' desires - and Dorothy is enabled to return home to Kansas.
		An interesting sidenote: the plot of The Wizard of Oz has often been used, rightly or wrongly, as a Parable on Populism in the Gilded Age, to explain the political situation at the time of its writing, including the 1896 Presidential election, and the turn-of-the-century Populist movement.

	Victor Fleming - The Wizard of Oz \| Movie (1939)
		Yet despite all this and some reviews that verged on the grudging, this fantastical story of a young girl and her dog, transplanted by a storm to the land of Oz and trying to get back to Kansas, remains the yardstick against which all other cinematic fairy tales must be measured.
		A cartoon sequel, Journey Back to Oz, with Judy Garland's daughter Liza Minnelli providing the voice of Dorothy, was made in 1971; in 1978 Diana Ross starred in an all-fl grown-up version called The Wiz, and there had been a silent film of The Wizard of Oz in 1925.
		The latter, lacking sound, was hardly in the same class and the other two can best be regarded as tributes, rather than rivals, to the 1939 picture.

		But this at least is clear: much of this movie's success depends on the winning appeal of Garland's "Everygirl" figure, who creates the vital identification and empathy necessary to carry the audience with her into the land of Oz.
		The Wizard of Oz must be the single most cherished fantasy musical from the golden years of MGM.
		The journey to Oz where everything is strange but beautiful and the classic songs "Somewhere Over the Rainbow", "If I only had a Heart" and "We're off to see the Wizard" are as captivating to children of today as they were in 1939.

		And while Oz's TV broadcasts are now controlled by media mogul Ted Turner (who owns the rights), the advent of home video has made this lively musical a mainstay in the staple diet of great American films.
		Oz is as magical today as when L. Frank Baum first told the tale.

	95.02.02: “the Wonder Behind the Wizard of Oz”
		In The Annotated Wizard of Oz, the author Michael Patrick Hearn states that Baum’s mother wanted her son to go to military school with the hope that this type of school would cure his daydreaming.
		In the Oz Scrapbook, the authors David L. Greene and Dick Martin assert that Rose Lawn is mentioned by name in Baum’s 1901 fantasy Dot and Tot of Merryland and, more important, they assert that the Emerald City may owe some of its opulence to the Baum estate of Rose Lawn.
		In the film The Wizard of Oz has the Scarecrow, the Tin Woodman, and the Lion aiding one another in the ruling of Oz, bringing with them their individual strengths.

		Revealing: When the Wizard is getting ready to take off in the balloon, while most people watch Dorothy climb out of the basket and go after Toto, the Tin Man is unravelling the thing holding the hot air balloon down, then he "accidentally" lets go.

		The Wizard of Oz is probably the only film ever of which I think everybody should see it!
		The story couldn't be more sappy or politically correct but I don't care…it's a visual masterpiece for sure and the importance of this motion picture in the history of cinema is inescapably.
		The Wizard of Oz practically is a complete chapter of cinema-history itself…referenced, spoofed and honored in numerous other titles.
