Overview

The third and definitive film adaptation of L. Frank Baum's 1900 children's fantasy, this musical adventure is a genuine family classic that made Judy Garland a star for her heartfelt performance as Dorothy Gale, an orphaned young girl unhappy with her drab black-and-white existence on her aunt and uncle's dusty Kansas farm. Dorothy yearns to travel "over the rainbow" to a different world, and she gets her wish when a tornado whisks her and her little dog, Toto, to the Technicolorful land of Oz. Having offended the Wicked Witch of the West Margaret Hamilton, Dorothy is protected from the old crone's wrath by the ruby slippers that she wears. At the suggestion of Glinda, the Good Witch of the North Billie Burke, Dorothy heads down the Yellow Brick Road to the Emerald City, where dwells the all-powerful Wizard of Oz, who might be able to help the girl return to Kansas. En route, she befriends a Scarecrow Ray Bolger, a Tin Man Jack Haley, and a Cowardly Lion Bert Lahr. The Scarecrow would like to have some brains, the Tin Man craves a heart, and the Lion wants to attain courage; hoping that the Wizard will help them too, they join Dorothy on her odyssey to the Emerald City.

Garland was MGM's second choice for Dorothy after Shirley Temple dropped out of the project; and Bolger was to have played the Tin Man but talked co-star Buddy Ebsen into switching roles. When Ebsen proved allergic to the chemicals used in his silver makeup, he was replaced by Haley. Gale Sondergaard was originally to have played the Wicked Witch of the West in a glamorous fashion, until the decision was made to opt for belligerent ugliness, and the Wizard was written for W.C. Fields, who reportedly turned it down because MGM couldn't meet his price. Although Victor Fleming, who also directed Gone With the Wind, was given sole directorial credit, several directors were involved in the shooting, included King Vidor, who shot the opening and closing black-and-white sequences. Harold Arlen and E.Y. Harburg's now-classic Oscar-winning song "Over the Rainbow" was nearly chopped from the picture after the first preview because it "slowed down the action." The Wizard of Oz was too expensive to post a large profit upon initial release; however, after a disappointing reissue in 1955, it was sold to network television, where its annual showings made it a classic.

    THIS IS NOT A WIDESCREEN VERSION!

    The description of this leads you to believe the dvd is in a widescreen 19x9 aspect ration, not its 4x3 television edited format. The only widesrceen formatting in on the movie's home navigation page.

    Oz in Blue Ray is unforgettable

    If you have seen this movie, as we have multiple times, it won't compare to the Blue Ray version. Our family has been Wizard of Oz fans for years and can recite most of the lines along with the actors. This is a must see for Oz lovers! The box containing the memorabilia is very nice and can be a family treasure for years to come.

    This is a great gift set.

    I have loved the Wizard of Oz since I first saw it. The gift set is exciting because it it fills in the gaps of how the author came to write the book. I had never seen the movie with John Ritter in it before and I completly enjoyed it. All of the other parts I loved also. I am going to be making a scrapbook about the Wizard of Oz starting with the reason the book was written. I love everyone who loves the movie get this.

    Suicidal munchkin or just a bird??

    In this clear picture of The Wizard of Oz on blu ray, you can see every single detail of the sceneries and the backgrounds. From the obviously plastic flowers in Munchkinland to the question of whether someone was hanging himself in the trees or if it's just a bird flapping its wings in the background when Dorothy, Scarecrow, and Tin Man continue on their way to Oz. It's a great movie for children to enjoy with their families and even for parents and grandparents to reminisce on their childhood. Judy Garland's singing voice is sure to snatch the attention and the emotions of anyone. The Scarecrow will never cease to humor you. And Toto, the dog, is just plain adorable.

    Wizard of Oz Collectors Edition

    This is a very nice edition to your collection of Wizard of Oz. I bought the blu-ray dvd. I have a blu-ray, but unless you have an hdtv, there is no difference in the screen. There are nice things in the collection. I did not know John Ritter did a movie on L.Frank Baum. There is a lot of stuff on the dvd's. I could not get the digital cd rom to work on my computer. That's the only thing that was a bummer.

    A new generation of fans captured!

    One of the best films of all time, the limited edition box set is fabulous. The book was fascinating to read and the collectible watch exceptionally nice. Watching the DVD was like visiting old friends.

    A Timeless Treasure!

    1939 was a magical year for film making in Hollywood with the Wizard of Oz being one of those special films. This film is a classic that is adored by children and appreciated by adults who have seen it time and again. It has every element a great film should: an entertaining story, marvelous actors, drama, a dash of comedy, some musical interludes to drive the narrative, colorful sets, beautiful costumes, phenomenal make-up, and innovative special effects. We dream with Dorothy for all that lies beyond the rainbow and we champion for her return home back to Kansas. It's a marvelously delicious journey down the yellow brick road with characters that are old friends that we never tire of seeing. This film is a classic because it is timeless and no matter your age, watching it always makes you feel young at heart. Happy 70th anniversary to a film that has endured the test of time and continues to delight a new legion of fans every year!

    SIMPLY THE BEST

    When a film is as good as THE WIZARD OF OZ to begin with, it's hard to make it better. Having said that, however, this 70th anniversary addition genuinely improves on a timeless original. This digital transfer has obviously been a labor of love for the restoration team, and their affection for and care of the original material is evident from the very first frame of the film. The abundance, depth, and variety of the color palette is unsurpassed. The set pieces, the backgrounds, and the costumes pulse with energy and bring a new level of cinematic authority to this movie masterpiece. The pristine clarity of every shot radiates with power and movement. Who knew that early Technicolor could look this good? The sharpness and visual sweep of this transfer gives THE WIZARD OF OZ a sheen of sheer wonder than enhances its enchantment. And because all of these qualities are incorporated to support the beauty of the film's story, they never overwhelm the action or the characters. The cinematography has never looked better, the soundtrack has never been as crisp, the characters have never looked so alive and detailed, and the entire film is unparalleled. Even the DVD extras enhance the experience of the film, making this a WIZARD for the ages. Whether you choose the standard DVD format or the Blu-Ray option, you will not be disappointed. But don't wait too long to decide. This set is a limited edition collector's item, and when it's gone, it's gone; so get yours today.
