Wizard of Oz and Judy
Day 3925
This prompt can have many people stand up and comment, "No. I like ______ (you fill in) better. I have enjoyed The Wizard of Oz since I was young many years ago. Yes it has imagination, suspense, and outstanding, memorable characters. Dorothy, the heroine, aka Judy Garland, sang the most lovely song, (Over the Rainbow)
It was well done. Maybe people liked it so much that it took them out of the worries and real world that they were trying to forget, just for a while.
Give credit where credit is due. It was and still is popular. I hope the children will sit still through this classical movie. It was and still is a classic.
But on the list that I looked up, the others were:
1. Titanic
2. E.T. the Extra-Terrestrial
3.The Wizard of Oz
4. Star Wars: Episode IV - A New Hope
5. The Lord of the Rings
6. Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs
7. Terminator 2: Judgement Day
8. The Lion King
9. The Godfather
10. The Jesus Film.
Note that some movies are more for adults than children. So one must decide to rent and watch or wait until their children grow up. Since my house is completely adult filled, we have no problems with that.
Now for the Oz movie favorite character, it would be Dorothy, aka Judy Garland. At that time Judy or Miss Frances Gumm was very talented but had a tragic life. Look it up for yourself. As Dorothy, she portrayed a child who lived with an aunt and uncle and just did things her way. (Almost sounds like me.) But as a performer, she won awards and acted with others like Mickey Rooney.
Here's to the little Dorothy who wanted to go home, wore those beautiful red slippers and even killed a witch by throwing water on her. What a girl! What a dream! What a movie!!!
