My Favorite Adaptations: The Wizard of Oz

When I was younger, I spent my summers attending day camp at a local private school that's been around for decades.  One of my favorite things there was the library and its old editions of old, or even out-of-print books.  They had practically the full set of Oz books, even the later ones written after L. Frank Baum died.  With such a vivid imagination, it's no surprise that his work was turned into a vibrant, iconic film.



I don't have much commentary to add here, just to say that The Wizard of Oz never gets old.  It's one of the few films I watch just as eagerly today as I would have fifteen years ago.
