Tysto film commentary

The Wizard of Oz

Netflix — IMDb

Little Judy Garland wins friends and kills witches dead in her vain attempts to just find a way back to Kansas. I compare the movie extensively to the original novel. I explain the concept of a frame story and the minor inconsistencies in the plot, like the troublesome character of Professor Marvel. I use the word brilliant too much. I suggest that Playboy, if it had been around in 1939, might have done a pictorial of the "Girls of the Emerald City Wash & Brush Up Co." I compare the Wicked Witch to Jaws. I suggest that the movie should have been remade in 1985 with Arnold Schwarzenegger. And I beg children not the follow the film's advice of not looking for a better life beyond your own back yard.

Bonus: The entire book! Searchable and skimmable!

Start the commentary as soon as you start the movie. (47 MB)
