    It's nuts to me that both The Wizard of Oz and Gone With The Wind, two of the all-time great Hollywood movies (both are listed in the top ten of AFI's list of greatest movies), came out in 1939...AND both were directed by Victor Fleming.

      Multiple directors worked on both films. Fleming is the credited director for both, but WOZ had about 5 directors while GWTW had 4. And David O. Selznick was the real auteur of that film.

    Whenever Judy Garland would do the little dance on the yellow brick road, with Jack Healy, Bert Laher, and Ray Bolger, she actually struggled to keep up with them, so much that she was accidentally shut out. And the director, Victor Fleming, would yell "HOLD IT! YOU THREE DIRTY HAMS! LET THAT LITTLE GIRL IN THERE!"

    I don't think I properly appreciated this until just now that Scarecrow always had his brains, Tin Man always had a heart, and Lion always had his courage, and that several instances in the movie show that for each character. Not to mention that Dorothy was always home, both thematically in her own heart and also literally, since it was all just a dream.

    A couple of points of trivia:
    • the actor originally cast as Tin Woodsman was Buddy Ebsen (who years later [in the ‘60s] played the patriarch of the Beverley Hillbillies) had such a horrible allergic reaction to the metallic make-up that he has to drop out of the movie.
    • also in the ‘60s Margaret Hamilton had a recurring guest/tribute role on the original Addams Family show as Gramma Frump (Morticia’s mother - a witch!).

  • @KierrokCyclone
    @KierrokCyclone Год назад +17

    Not really a "Fun fact", because it's a little sad, but Margaret Hamilton used to dress up as the witch and appeared on Sesame Street. However, her appearance scared children so badly, that parents would call the studio demanding they take the episode off air, and never show her again. She even had kids come up to her and ask why she was so mean to Dorthy. The even sadder part was she was actually one of the nicest people you would ever meet. It goes along with a age old thing in movies, usually the people who play the villains are the ones who are the nicest in real life.

    So fun watching the three of you and your reactions!
    The amazing backstory of "The Wizard of Oz" movie.
    - When the wardrobe department got the script, they said Professor Marvel (and The Wizard) required a long coat for the part. Every coat on MGM's lot didn't seem acceptable for the actor Frank Morgan's part, so they sent several assistants out to the thrift stores in the Los Angeles area to search for long coats. After returning with many coats, Mr. Morgan went through them and chose one tattered, old wool coat. He looked at the label, and it was marked with the previous owner's name.
    L. Frank Baum. They saw the manufacturer's name, as it was made by hand at a fine clothing shop in England, and contacted the shop, which was still in business, to search their records to verify the owner's having placed an order for this coat in the late 1800's. It was true! How it made it's way to Los Angeles is a mystery. And an even larger mystery was how it was selected by the actor who played The Wizard of Oz, from hunddreds of pieces of clothing on the MGM studio lot.
    After filming concluded, the MGM studio presented the coat to L. Frank Baum's family as a souvenir of the film. You see, the author of the original children's book "The Wonderful Wizard of Oz" from which this movie was based, was L. Frank Baum!
    - Buddy Ebsen (from The Beverly Hillbillies TV show) originally got the part of The Tin Man, but was allergic to the silver face paint, so he had to turn the part down.
    - The Ruby Slippers Dorothy wore are considered "The Holy Grail of Hollywood Collectibles"
    - "Today in 2001, Judy Garland's "Over The Rainbow" was voted Song Of The Century in a poll conducted by the Recording Industry Association of America, the National Endowment for the Arts, and Scholastic Inc. The song was written for the 1939 film The Wizard of Oz, won the Academy Award for Best Original Song, and became Garland's signature song."*

      How the coat ended up in LA is not really a mystery. Lyman F Baum ended up living in Hollywood and actually made several silent movie versions of the Wizard of OZ, one of which actually stared Oliver Hardy who later teamed up wit Stan Laurel to form the comedy team Laurel and Hardy

It’s funny when people talk about how they would’ve been traumatized if they saw it as a child bc I saw it idk how young I was and I’m fine. I mean- I’m weird but like I don’t think I’m weird from 80s movies. If that makes sense?

    From what I hear the behind-the-scenes shooting of this film was more in line with a horror story than a family film
    Margaret Hamilton who plays the witch was supposed to disappear thru a trap door as the pyrotechnics were shot off around her when she leaves Munchkin Land and as they started shooting they got their timing mixed up and she was basically set on fire as she was dropped thru the trap door
    She spent time in the hospital recovering and when she came back the first scene they wanted her to shoot was the "Surrender Dorothy" smoking broom scene and she refused
    So the director had her stunt double do it instead and the broom exploded
    That's just one of many stories behind the production that made this film a nightmare to shoot

    Buddy Ebsen who played Jed Clampett in the Beverly Hillbillies was originally set to play the Scarecrow but his role was changed to the Tin Man but the aluminum dust in the make up was toxic and he was hospitalised and he pulled out of production. Margaret Hamilton who played the wicked witch had to wear green makeup that was copper based which again was toxic. Once she was in costume she wasn’t able to eat solid food so she consumed her food through a straw. The poppy scene where the snow falls was asbestos flakes. Frank Morgan played six characters in this film. (Professor Marvel, the Gatekeeper, the Coachman, the Guard who at first denied Dorothy and her friends access, the Wizard’s scary face projection and he was the Wizard himself.) W.C. Fields was first chosen to play the Wizard but he was dropped by the studio when his haggling over his wage was prolonged.

    Shirley Temple was originally gonna play Dorothy but didn't get the part because she was under 20th Fox Century contract back then. I really can't picture Shirley in the role because Judy seemed liked the perfect choice to play Dorothy but I really did feel bad for her and how she was treated on set when making the film. She was even harrassed by one of the dwarf actors who played one of The Munchkins.

  • @musicstar693

    There is so many myths about the film (some true and some not), I remember there was one about a hanging body of one of the munchkin actors that could still be seen in the background in the scene where dorothy, scarecrow and tin man set off walking into the forest before they meet Lion, but then they replaced it with a bird in later releases (not sure if this was fake or not but something I remember seeing talked about online) the trivia behind the film is sad but interesting at the same time, shows how times have changed

    In the scene when Dorothy slaps the Cowardly Lion, you can see Judy Garland bury her chin and mouth in Toto's fur. That's because she was trying to keep a straight face, because the producers would slap her because she couldn't stop laughing at Bert Lahr (the actor who played Zeke/Cowardly Lion) when he started blubbering.

    1. If you start playing side one of the album "Dark Side of the Moon" by Pink Floyd when the MGM lion roars the third time it syncs up with what's happening in the movie until shortly after the color kicks in.
    2. Buddy Ebsen was supposed to play the tin man, but he was allergic to the dust they used on his face, so since he was under a lifetime contract with MGM they eventually offered him "The Beverly Hillbillies" and the rest is history.
    3. Sadly, Judy Garland died in 1969 from barbiturate overdose.
    4. GOOF: The Nebraska State Fair has always been in Lincoln, not Omaha.
    5. In 1979 they made "The Wiz" featuring Diana Ross and Michael Jackson among others.
    6. If you want to know about the hanging body the story is in IMDB trivia. It's reliable.
    7. Speaking of Pink Floyd and this movie before the times, but how much acid was used to come up with this?😏

      #4 incorrect - from Wikipedia "The first Nebraska "State" Fair occurred while Nebraska was still a U.S. territory, from September 21-23, 1859 in Nebraska City. Another event wasn't held until October 7-9, 1868, by which time Nebraska had become a state. The fair was again held in Nebraska City in 1869, before moving to Brownville in 1870 and 1871. For the next 20 years, the fair rotated between Lincoln and Omaha. Omaha hosted the event at the Omaha Driving Park in North Omaha. In 1901, the Nebraska Legislature named the Lancaster County Fairgrounds in Lincoln as the permanent home of the Nebraska State Fair."
      In 2008 the Nebraska State Fair moved permanently to Grand Island.
