Classic musical adaptation of the L. Frank Baum novel starring Judy Garland, Ray Bolger, Bert Lahr and Jack Haley. A tornado whisks Dorothy (Garland) and her house from Kansas to Munchkin City, squashing the Wicked Witch of the East upon landing. The Wicked Witch of the West (Margaret Hamilton) vows revenge, while Dorothy sets off on the yellow brick road to see the Wizard of Oz (Frank Morgan), hoping he can tell her how to get home. On the way she makes friends with a scarecrow (Bolger), a tin man (Haley) and a cowardly lion (Lahr) - all of whom have specific reasons for wanting to meet the magical Wizard. With the Wicked Witch out to get her, will Dorothy ever get home again?

Most helpful review The Wizard Of Oz

Pure Gold.

By DirtyHarry (104 reviews) from HARROGATE , 10 Nov 2003

[Highly rated reviewer]

I thought I'd try this out on my kids age 4 and 7.

So many cartoon movies are around these days, I just thought it would make a refreshing change for them to watch a real movie. They thought it was absolutely brilliant, kept them quite for hours as they would watch it again and again.

It has the added bonus of being a very watchable movie for children and adults alike. It may be old, but it's pure gold
