The Wizard Of Oz (1970r)
Original MGM b&w photo still #1060-248.
This is the bittersweet climax in the Emerald City. The Wizard (Frank Morgan) is about to return to Kansas in his hot air balloon, leaving the Scarecrow, Tin Man, and Lion behind. Dorothy (Judy Garland) is frantically trying to get Toto back into the basket so she can go home, too. It’s a moment of peak emotion that teaches the characters and the audience that the things they were searching for were inside them all along.
This movie is the ultimate Hollywood miracle. It survived a chaotic production, including five different directors and multiple script rewrites, to become a timeless masterpiece. Its transition from sepia to vibrant Technicolor didn't just dazzle audiences in 1939; it set the gold standard for how movies could transport us to entirely different worlds.
