Nearing a full century, The Wizard of Oz defines the word timeless. Every time I come back to this movie, I'm flabbergasted at how well it holds up. Thinking back, this was the movie that may have broken my aversion to black and white movies and television that frequently occupied our TV in my youth. I still would begrudgingly wait for her to step through the door into the colorful world of Oz. Even then I knew that it was that contrast between the two worlds that made it so special when we did arrive in Oz and upon our return to black and white Kansas there wasn't any of that vitriol for the monochrome world that we live in. I suppose that if you don't like musicals, the movie likely won't agree with you. Otherwise, if you've never watched or you haven't since you were young, give 'The Mighty Miracle Show of 100 Delights!' a whirl.
