Classical Movie of old times
Aurthor: Omer

Hello Movietubers! I hope you all are missing the all-time
favorite post about “Classical Movies” so I’m back with all new Classical
movies of all time. This week we will be looking at the oldest Classical movies
of all time. Which pretty much everyone is familiar with The Wizard of Oz.
The Wizard of Oz is a famously iconic Hollywood musical produced by Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer and
released by RKO
Radio Pictures in 1939, consisting almost of an all-star
cast. It is also arguably one of the most watched movies in the history of
cinema. The film stars Judy
Garland as Dorothy Gale. The co-stars are Ray Bolger, Jack Haley, Bert Lahr,
Frank Morgan, Billie Burke, and Margaret Hamilton, with Charley Grapewin, Pat
Walshe and Clara Blandick, Terry the dog (billed as Toto), and the Singer
Midgets as the Munchkins. It was directed by Victor Fleming
The movie itself is
loosely based upon the original book which is considered to be the first
American Fairytale known as The Wonderful Wizard of Oz by L.
Frank Baum and
illustrated by W.
W. Denslow.
The film starred
Judy Garland as the young Kansas farm girl Dorothy, who, after being knocked
unconscious in a tornado, dreams about following a yellow brick road, alongside
her dog Toto, to the Emerald City to meet the Wizard of Oz. Along the way,
Dorothy encounters a cast of characters, including the Scarecrow, the Tin Man,
the Cowardly Lion and the Wicked Witch of the West. Though the scenes in Kansas
were shot in traditional black and white, Oz appears in vivid Technicolor, a
relatively new film process at the time.
