About this product

Product Information

Young Dorothy is bored of her gray life on a Kansas farm. When her house is whisked away by a tornado, it lands somewhere over the rainbow in a Technicolor world, and Dorothy knows she's not in Kansas anymore. This beloved, incomparable classic based on L. Frank Baum's turn-of-the-century novel is a musical and visual candy store. Dorothy's journey to find a way back to Kansas has permeated American culture and film for decades and remains one of the best musicals and children's stories ever filmed.

The very best motion picture of the 1930's!
In the entire history of world cinema, no other film event has endured quite like that of 1939's "The Wizrd Of Oz". This movie is still a whole lot of fun for all ages, even after over 70 years! What makes this timeless masterpiece so enjoyable is how the characters, the story and the songs are all meshed together so well. The film has many things going for it. The movie begins with earthly-type tones that are filmed in rich sepia-brown colors, giving the images an almost home-like quslity, as if to reflect a much simpler era. After the legendary cyclone sequence, the vision changes to a brilliant technicolor scope, which truly brings out the beauty of the sets and the costumes. Even the visual effects, for 1939 standards, look surprisingly vivid and strikingly sharp. The film stars Judy Garland in her most famous role as Dorothy Gale of Kansas who lives on a farm with her Uncle Henry (Charles Grapewin) and Aunt Em (Clara Blandick), along with three farmhands: Hunk (Ray Bolger), Hickory (Jack Haley) and Zeke (Bert Lahr). In the land of Oz, they are better known as Scarecrow, Tin Man and Lion. Margaret Hamilton almost steals the show as the Wicked Witch of the West, one of the most despised movie villains of all time. And, who could ever forget actor Frank Morgan? He has a virtual field day in this show as Professor Marvel, Doorman, Cabby, The Guard and, of course, The Wizard Of Oz himself. "Somewhere Over The Rainbow" deservedly won the Oscar for the Best Song of the year, as did the score composed by Herbert Stothart. "The Wizard Of Oz" reminds us all that "there's no place like home".Read full review

The tape was in wonderful shape.
First off, I love the movie The Wizard of Oz. I have ever since I was little. I used to have the actual vhs but it somehow got destroyed so I really appreciate having a new tape to call my own. Now that I'm older and can take care of stuff by myself I am really glad to have my own on tape. Being a collector of stuff that I am I can gaurantee you that I will take care of it. I thank you so much for having it on ebay for collectors such as myself.

Pure Magnificence for the Ages
I won't describe this time everlasting splendid movie since Jankp did it perfectly. I just have a question...why did "Gone with the Wind" (release date Dec. 1939), win most of the Oscars, while this one won half as many (realease date August 1939)? Seems these two gems became the best the industry can ever hope to produce. Hurry, you'll want this 50 th. Aniversary Edition for your colletion. The color is so brilliant, you'll marvel over the technology of that era.
