The Wizard of Oz is a 1939 American musical-fantasy film mainly directed by Victor Fleming and based on the 1900 children’s novel The Wonderful Wizard of Oz by L.Frank Baum.[1] The film stars Judy Garland,Ray Bolger,Jack Haley,Bert Lahr,and Frank Morgan,with Billie Burke,Margaret Hamilton,Charley Grapewin,Clara Blandick,and the Singer Midgets as the Munchkins.
The film is set in 1889,and follows a 12-year-old schoolgirl Dorothy Gale (Judy Garland) who lives on a Kansas farm with her Aunt Em and Uncle Henry,but dreams of a better place "somewhere over the rainbow." After being struck unconscious during a tornado by a window which has come loose from its frame,Dorothy dreams that she,her dog Toto,and the farmhouse are transported to the magical Land of Oz.There,the Good Witch of the North,Glinda (Billie Burke),advises Dorothy to follow the yellow brick road to the Emerald City and meet the Wizard of Oz,who can return her to Kansas.During her journey,she meets a Scarecrow (Ray Bolger),Tin Man (Jack Haley),and a Cowardly Lion (Bert Lahr),who join her,hoping to receive what they lack themselves (a brain,a heart,and courage,respectively).All of this is done while also trying to avoid the the Wicked Witch of the West (Margaret Hamilton) and her attempt to get her sister's ruby slippers from Dorothy,who received them from Glinda.
In the end,Dorothy says a tearful goodbye to the friends she has met in Oz,and then follows Glinda's instructions to get home.Back in sepia tone,she awakens in her bedroom in Kansas surrounded by family and friends and tells them of her journey.Everyone laughs and tells her it was all a dream,except Uncle Henry,who says sympathetically "Of course we believe you,Dorothy".Toto appears and jumps onto the bed.A happy Dorothy,still convinced the journey was real,hugs Toto and says,"There's no place like home."
