The Wizard of Oz has delighted hearts
and minds aplenty since its theatrical release in 1939. It was the first to
adopt technicolor, too, allowing for the film’s transition into the Land of Oz
to be both seamless and staggering at once. In the best part of a century later,
there have to date been a number of sequels of sorts, television shows and many
other interpretations – no surprise given that creator L. Frank Baum penned a
total of fourteen Oz books.
