The Wizard of Oz (1939)

The Wizard of Oz (1939)   I don’t think we’re in our cupboards anymore! This week, we’re strapping on our ruby slippers and hitting the yellow brick road to find out if there really is no place like home. That’s right, it’s time for a certified classic… we’re watching The Wizard of Oz! Featuring apple fights, homesickness, and “I want” songs!   A word of warning. One of us quite strongly took against this film, while we wouldn’t normally warn you of this, we are aware of how important The Wizard of Oz may be to some of you, and we don’t want to cause any hurt. As ever, our opinions are just those of two idiots.   Also: A somewhat unkind digression on Johnny Flynn (sorry Johnny) One Life Gould’s been mainlining bleak crime drama   “I was surprised by how much I hated it.” - Gould “I think it’s a cold, cold heart that can’t be warmed by The Wizard of Oz” - Ed “I find the munchkins really upsetting to look at.” - Ed   Link: The Bad and The Beautiful 🔗The Wizard of Oz Art Director (and serial Oscar winner) Cedric Gibbons   Content Warning – Contains discussion of outdated language regarding little people.    Spoiler Warning – A spoiler for Roald Dahl’s Matilda.
