Re: Wizard of Oz 85th Anniversary 🦁🌪️🌈💚

There's a small Dinner Theater in my hometown and they are planning on doing the Wizard of Oz, I will be going to the performance with a group of friends.  I can't wait and I have the cutest ruby red slipper earrings to wear that my husband bought me years ago knowing how much I love the movie.

Re: Wizard of Oz 85th Anniversary 🦁🌪️🌈💚

I don't go to movie theatres anymore, but I sure loved Wizard of Oz on TV. I've watched it and over again.

 

When I was a really young student, our school took us to see GONE WITH THE WIND at a theatre.

 

It was a very mature adult movie and kind of graphic for young kids.  I didn't really enjoy it.  I have seen it since and now understand it.

 

I did notice that Clark Gable looked a lot like my father, but my father had a deep cleft chin. Except for that, they could be twins.

One of my mother's favorite movies!  She saw in the theater as a little girl when it first came out, and was AMAZED when all the color came on screen.

 

Celebrate and enjoy!!

I am so excited!

 

I am not sure if my niece has ever seen it so it should be a good time. My mother is coming and she doesn't think she ever saw it in the theater either.

 

I'm curious to know what the audience is going to be like. I reserved back row center so I am ready to go over the rainbow! 🌈 No flying monkeys! 🐒

I saw it on the big screen when I was in college.  Imagine a theater full of cynical university students, all gasping when Dorothy opens that door.

 

I will always love the film.  And I will always wear red shoes.

 

Dorothy has got some new kicks. Go #vintage @seasidecollectibles | Wizard of oz, Wizard of oz ...

One of my all-time favorites. It would be fun to see on a large screen at the movies!

I never liked the movie.

Best movie ever!   I always loved it as a child and my adult children still do.  As a matter of fact my son has it on DVD and we watch it every Thanksgiving.........still so fun, and we all like to recite some of the lines.  I have a Pandora charm bracelet and DH bought me a charm of ruby slippers many years ago with a special attachment. I just love it!
