Book Vs. Movie: “The Wizard of Oz” (2019 replay in honor of the opening of Wicked!)

Book Vs. Movie: The Wizard of Oz

(Replay in honor of Wicked!) 

The Margos celebrate the new “Wicked” movie, featuring Cynthia Erivo and Ariana Grande, with a replay of our beloved episode dedicated to L. Frank Baum and “The Wizard of Oz.” 

The book presents a vast and detailed version of Oz with darker undertones, while the movie streamlines the story to focus on Dorothy’s emotional journey. Baum’s depiction of Dorothy portrays her as resourceful and independent, whereas Judy Garland’s performance adds warmth and vulnerability, highlighting her longing for home.
