I like this film but as a young child I found the Witch of the West rather frightening. It may not be suitable for very small children, I think. Or maybe I was just too soft!
What's often startling about "The Wizard of Oz" is the change from black and white to colour and back again. At the time this version was made, black and white signified reality as used in documentaries and colour meant fantasy. This is how we know Oz isn't real but we wonder how Dorothy will get back.
As I said earlier, the story has been made lots of times but this is the one everyone remembers, not least because of Judy Garland's performance. She looks like a woman but again, is playing someone supposedly much younger. It's worth putting it into context as well. In 1939 trouble was brewing in Europe with the Second World War ...
Advantages: Interesting scenes that weren't in the film Disadvantages: Not as good as the film

The plot is the same as the films plot, just padded out with a couple of extra scenes and description. Dorothy who lives on a farm in Kansas with her Aunt, Uncle and dog called Toto gets swept away in a tornado to a land called Oz where she aquires a pair of ruby slippers after killing the Wicked witch of the West. After that she embarks on a wonderful adventure along the yellow brick road to see the wizard of oz so she might get back home to Kansas, along the way she meets her companions: the lion, the scarecrow and the tinman as well as running into many obstacles including the wicked witch of the east.

this film is one of my childhood favourites, its a film that all the family can enjoy, and is suitable for children of all ages to watch on thier own, if desired. The film follows Dorothy through her magical journey, as she meets her mythical friends. the film is exciting and keeps you watching all the way through.
i have personally watched this film many times and it will still be one of my all time favourites. also my family loves this film its an all time favourite for us to sit down and watch whilst we're having our sunday dinner, it also gets watched every year at chirstmas. the childrens friends also will choose to watch this film over any other.
the friends that dorathy gains through her adventure are lovable characters and have their own traits that everyone in the family can relate to.
this film will be with my family ...
