Great Classic that will always be remembered

Rating: 10/10 (16 February 2011)

The Wizard of Oz is an amazing classic movie that I have watched several times in my life... all the way back to when I was very little. I even used to be afraid, especially of the flying monkeys!
This is a film that I will probably watch several MORE times in my life, and I think that it is rare to find a person that has not seen it. And it is also pretty rare to find someone that did not like if not love it. Even if someone has not seen it they most certainly must have heard of it.
The film takes you to a great fantasy land that turns to color and Judy Garland is fantastic in it. Although there are some points of joy, Dororthy, Toto, and her new friend have to overcome many obstacles to reach the Wizard of Oz.
I even feel as though the picture and sound is pretty great for a 1939 film.
In my mind this film is right up there with the classic, Gone With the Wind. Although both have very different story-lines and are totally different genres of films, they were both made the same year (to my knowledge), and will forever be remembered as wonderful movies to watch again and again and again.
If you feel like escaping into the world of Dorothy, Toto, The scarecrow, the tinman, the cowardly lion, and of course the Wicked Witch of the West, then I highly recommend that you watch this classic movie. It is a treat that never gets old.
