Yes, it can be seen at 2:51. It is the reprise of Ding Dong The Witch is Dead that was shot. The scene begins with the Winkie guards singing it and then it dissolves into the denizens of the Emerald City singing it. In photos, you can see the Scarecrow is holding the burnt broom.
And people will still say it was “added in later” and “they don’t remember it” Such a stupid dumb rumour… Yes maybe it looked like it to people back in the day because on a VHS on a CRT screen it was really dark…
Funny thing is, the 1949 trailer must have worked out…the film finally made a profit upon this rerelease, it’s 2nd. (The television legend was yet to follow, of course.)
It is interesting to see the Scarecrow dancing down the yellow brick road from the cut footage that was filmed as part of the dance sequence that was deleted in the release print.
The latter movie trailer has the rare color footage of "Dorothy & her friends"returning to "The Emerald City"with "The Wicked Witch's"Broom and they're being welcomed and escorted to "The Wizard's"Palace by a marching band.
Yes I prefer if they left it normal aspect ratio as it appears the resolution suffers, don't know what it looked like when it was released but I saw it in 1962 at the Seattle Worlds Fair and the print was in its original aspect ratio in Technicolor and quite striking
The fact that Margaret Hamilton doesn't get a credit recognition is sad because she is phenomenal.
I saw this film when it came out for its' IMAX 3D re-release in 2013.
I assume it was in TV format.
The 1955 rerelease trailer of the movie features a clip from"The Triumuphal Procession"number.

And "Dorothy","Toto"and their three friends:"The Scarecrow","The Tin Man" and "The Cowardly Lion" are lead to "The Wizard's"Palace by a marching band.

3:30 even here you can still see the crane clear as day. No hanging whatsoever.

@ Wouldn’t surprise me honestly
This must've been marvelous on the big screen.
3:31 This is the oldest footage we have of this scene, and you can see it’s a crane
That's why I'm glad it contained all of the singing scenes
Exceptional Movie Trailer for an Exceptional Movie!
The music during the name call gives me chills

The reason that the film was re-released was that people clamored for it, since it had been phenomenally popular on its first run.

Anyone know the 1955 narrator? he has a great voice
The narration was taken from the 1939 theatrical and radio trailer. He also announced for other MGM trailers.
That was Frank Whitbeck- MGM's head of publicity, who often announced their trailers in the 1930's and '40s.
@@fromthesidelines Thanks his voice sounds so old school but really cool. It sounds like the time tbh 30s and 40s
You're welcome!

I find it hilarious how this trailer advertised seeing the film for marriage problems 😂
I'm writing that my name is Josh and i'm writing that it's November 2024 and The Wizard of Oz really is available stream on the streaming service MAX.
Technically, the 1955 reissue was stretched to the 16:9 widescreen format.
