The Wizard of Oz (1939)
Based on the novel of
the same name this film mostly directed by Victor Fleming stars Judy
Garland, Frank Morgan and Margaret Hamilton. A young girl and her dog
run away from home only to be transported to a magic land during a
tornado.
Despite being a
children's story and having a host directors and writers work on the
project this film ends up with a surprising amount of depth. Visually
the film is very impressive, the special effects as well as the
differences between Kansas and Oz work very well. When it comes to
the story it can be interpreted as either the classic adolescent need
to rebel or the acceptance of coming adulthood.
5/5
