I remembered watching this movie on television and it's also one of my favorite movies.
This brings back a lot of memories.
Good Ole John Leader!
R.I.P. to all of the actors of thr original Wizard of Oz movie.
May this cast rest in peace indeed, but this was not the original; that would be the silent movie made in 1910.
Scoob. 😮.

They should have kept The Jitterbug in the movie.
Who else thought it got kinda dark when they talked about how Buddy Ebsen got sick from the makeup he wore as the Tin Man?
