----- ORDER NOW THIS DVD: www.amazon.de/Oliver-Hardy-Za... A toymaker (Semon) reads L. Frank Baum's book to his granddaughter. In the story the Land of Oz is ruled by Prime Minister Kruel (Josef Swickard), aided by Ambassador Wikked (Otto Lederer), Lady Vishuss (Virginia Pearson), and the Wizard (Charles Murray), a "medicine-show hokum hustler". When the discontented people, led by Prince Kynd (Bryant Washburn), demand the return of the princess, who disappeared while a baby many years before, so she can be crowned their rightful ruler, Kruel has the Wizard distract them with a parlor trick: making a female impersonator (Frederick Ko Vert) appear out of a seemingly empty basket. Kruel sends Wikked on a mission.
Meanwhile, in Kansas, Dorothy (Dorothy Dwan) lives on a farm with her relatives. While Aunt Em (Mary Carr) is a kind and caring woman, Uncle Henry (Frank Alexander) is an obese man with a short temper who shows little love for his niece. He also abuses his farmhands: Snowball (credited to G. Howe Black, a stage name for Spencer Bell, who frequently appeared in Semon's films) and Hardy's and Semon's unnamed characters. The latter two are both in love with Dorothy, who favors Hardy's character. Aunt Em reveals to Dorothy that she was placed on their doorstep as a baby, along with an envelope and instructions that it be opened only when she turned 18.
On her 18th birthday, however, Wikked and his minions arrive at the farm by biplane and demand the envelope. When Uncle Henry refuses to hand it over, Wikked suborns Hardy's character by promising him wealth and Dorothy. Wikked then has Dorothy tied to a rope and raised high up a tower; his men start a fire underneath the rope. Hardy's character finds the note, but Semon's character takes it and saves Dorothy, only to have Wikked and his men capture them all at gunpoint.
Then a tornado suddenly strikes. Dorothy, the two rivals for her affection, and Uncle Henry take shelter inside a small wooden shed, which is-along with Snowball-carried aloft by the violent wind and soon deposited in the Land of Oz. Dorothy finally reads the contents of the envelope; it declares that she, Princess Dorothea, is the rightful ruler of Oz. Thwarted, Kruel blames the farmhands for kidnapping her and orders the Wizard to transform them into something else, such as monkeys, which he is of course unable to do. Chased by Kruel's soldiers, Semon's character disguises himself as a scarecrow, while Hardy improvises a costume from the pile of tin in which he is hiding. They are still eventually captured by the soldiers. During their trial, the Tin Man accuses his fellow farmhands of kidnapping Dorothy. Kynd has the Scarecrow and Snowball put in the dungeon.
Kruel makes the Tin Man "Knight of the Garter" and Uncle Henry the "Prince of Whales". Wikked suggests he retain his power by marrying Dorothy. The Wizard then helps the two prisoners escape by giving Snowball a lion costume, which he uses to scare away the guards. Though the Scarecrow manages to reach Dorothy to warn her against Kruel, he is chased back down into the dungeon by the Tin Man, and ends up getting trapped inside a lion cage (with real lions) for a while. He and Snowball finally escape.
When Kynd finds Kruel trying to force Dorothy to marry him, they engage in a sword fight. When Kruel's henchmen intervene and help disarm Kynd, the Scarecrow saves Dorothy and Kynd. Defeated, Kruel claims that he took Dorothy to Kansas in order to protect her from court factions out to harm her, but she orders that he be taken away.
The Scarecrow is heartbroken to discover that Dorothy has fallen for Prince Kynd. He then flees up a tower from the Tin Man, who tries to blast him with a cannon. Snowball flies a biplane overhead, and the Scarecrow manages to grab a rope ladder dangling underneath it. However, the ladder breaks, and he falls. The scene shifts abruptly back to the little girl, who had fallen asleep. She wakes up and leaves. The grandfather reads from the book that Dorothy marries Prince Kynd and they live happily ever after. 
Приколы
I used to have several films of his. He has been forgotten, sadly. He was a silent star. This was quite a production which he produced directed and starred in back in the silent era!
Too bad no film company has thought to tell a story about him, as they did about two actors he worked with who became one of the best comedy teams in history.
Lot of people didn't know this where all the other shows came from.of wizard of oz .didn't know that the first wizard of oz had a character .unlike the second one where you didn't see no black character at least I didn't.but should of being all races playing in the second one since all Childrens of different races watch it.
I met the actress who was the little girl at beginning of the movie once at an Wizard of Oz convention way back in 1980.
when u realize the grownups were probably born in the late 1800s during the making of this
I tried watching it, but I was getting 2 commercials every 3 minutes.
Yeah... the ads are unforgiving
dude get adblock ffs
the quality of the film looks as if it was made today with a filter on, restoration tech be damned
why is this 20 minutes shorter than the black and white version of the exact same movie
The "Now on DVD" label ruined it.
specially dat watermelon scene
I agree.
18:11 is that what Beehives looked like in the 1920's?
57:20 the cowardly lion is cute 🦁
Right
How can we watch this without the now on DVD logo?

Thanks for posting this.
BTW
Laurel & Hardy are not in this film;
Oliver Hardy is but not Stan Laurel.
kinda weird that everyone in this film is dead
It would be kinda weird if everyone in this film was still alive....
The baby might still be living.
That's what happens when you watch a 100 year old movie.
🤦♀️
The racism and sexism were pretty hard to swallow.
It’s 1925
32:28 The wizard of oz tornado 1925
It's awesome to see this in color, I only have the black and white version, I still love it, but to see it in color would be nice too so thank you, though why the water mark ?
The tornado scene happeneds so late in the movie. It literally starts at 32:21 to 35:27
There's clips of a film playing between all of these adverts.
34:53 Clearly God didn't want that guy to be left behind by his friends.
Unrecognizable plot.
bellissimo, !!!!
this type of movie always disturb me in some way, i can never put my finger on it, but gives me a creepy feeling like there's a hidden agenda with the movie crews and the "very young" female cast, ..
When i was a kid silent film stars always creeped me out, i think it was a mix of the black lipstick on the men and the prolonged wide eyed expressions
Silent movies
I didn't expect the loud ass music at 44:15☠️
Got this on vhs!
Not on DVD? Because it's now on DVD. 😕
The twister scene happeneds so late in the movie
where is laurel and hardy in this? the title is misleading.
Well I agree the title is misleading, but it's Oliver Hardy who is playing Tin Man.
Even in color, thou better... is sadly Still a very Bad film overall

I would say this was decent film of the wizard of oz not my favourite why was the scarecrow lion and tinman just real people dressed up anyways this is maybe my 7th fav
sync this video with the entire album of the dark side of the moon of pink floyd !!!! WTF
Ok how tf is this the Wizard of oz Is completely not accurate.
My god this is awful, I’m a huge fan of The Wizard Of Oz & Oz The Great & Powerful but this could give me nightmares 😱
Ok this movie has almost NOTHING to do with the Wizard of Oz. It diverges from the story as badly as a Woke Netflix "reimagined" adaptation.
No Wicked Witch, No Toto, and no Yellow Brick Road.
It introduces new characters like "King Kruel" and "Snowball", Dorothy is the "queen" hidden away in Kansas at birth until her coronation like a copy of Aurora in Sleeping Beauty, the Tin Man is a villain who betrays his companions, the book has a completely different plot, and ends with a battle between the Scarecrow and Tin Man because Dorothy has fallen in love with Prince Kynd.
This was the worst movie ever!
One of the worst silent films ever made.
gay
