| Summary |
In this classic musical fantasy, Judy Garland stars as Dorothy Gale, a young Kansas farm girl who dreams of a land 'somewhere over the rainbow.' Dorothy's dream comes true when she, her dog, Toto, and her family's house are transported by a tornado to a bright and magical world unlike anything she has seen before. Unfortunately, she makes a mortal enemy of a wicked witch when the house falls on the hag's sister. Now, befriended by a scarecrow without a brain, a tin man with no heart and a cowardly lion - and protected by a pair of enchanted ruby slippers - Dorothy sets off along a yellow brick road for the Emerald City to beseech the all-powerful Wizard of Oz for his help to return home. Winner of Academy Awards for Best Music, Song OverThe Rainbow and for Best Music, Original Score. A special Oscar for 'the best juvenile performer of the year' was awarded to Judy Garland. Based on the novel by L. Frank Baum. (Movie, 1939) |
