35mm film screening! / 85th Anniversary
In this classic musical fantasy, Judy Garland stars as Dorothy Gale, a young Kansas farm girl who dreams of a land "somewhere over the rainbow." Dorothy's dream comes true when she, her dog, Toto, and her family's house are transported by a tornado to a bright and magical world unlike anything she has seen before. Unfortunately, she makes a mortal enemy of a wicked witch when the house falls on the hag's sister. Now, befriended by a scarecrow without a brain, a tin man with no heart and a cowardly lion--and protected by a pair of enchanted ruby slippers--Dorothy sets off along a yellow brick road for the Emerald City to beseech the all-powerful Wizard of Oz for his help to return home.
Winner of Academy Awards® for Best Music, Song "Over The Rainbow" and for Best Music, Original Score. A special Oscar® for "the Best Juvenile Performer of the Year" was awarded to Judy Garland.
"The Wizard of Oz fills such a large space in our imagination. It somehow seems real and important in a way most movies don't.” —Roger Ebert
