There is no place like home for this classic film. A 1939 timeless, musical-fantasy, based on the L. Frank Baum children’s novel, The Wizard of Oz was directed by Victor Fleming. The film stars Judy Garland as Dorothy Gale. The film drops viewers into their first taste of a Technicolor dream world where Dorothy and her friends follow the yellow brick road to find their inner most desires. The Wizard of Oz triggered two other fantasy films the next year. Through its annual television showings from 1959-1991 it has become one of the most famous films ever made! It’s believed to be the most-watched film in history. ‘Culturally Significant’ are the words the US Library of Congress used when The Wizard of Oz was selected for preservation in the National Film Industry. With the greatest soundtrack of all time, deemed by The Observer, this film really is Over the Rainbow!
