    It’s harrowing to realize that even though Judy was one of the youngest in the cast, she was outlived by practically everyone
  • @MrJbezzz
    I worked at CBS and every year when we broadcast The Wizard of Oz everyone in the broadcast center would be walking the halls humming and singing the songs! It was an amazing experience!
  • @eagleeye2300
    We lived for The Wizard of Oz coming on annually... So magical.
  • One thing I noticed, with a few exceptions, most of the cast lived well into their eighties and nineties. That’s a long time for that era.
  • @CannelleInOK
    When I was a kid, The Wizard of Oz was on one time a year. No one missed it.
  • @cathy3392
    I still remember the first time we saw the show in color. When Dorothy opened her house door into Oz and everything was in color. Wow!
  • @badbiker666
    This was one of the most respectful Wizard of Oz tributes. I enjoyed it very much.
  • @amandanies3174
    I knew that Margaret Hamilton's ashes had been scattered, but you'd think that there'd at least be some monument or memorial plaque for her somewhere in Hollywood, or anywhere in California, or even in Cleveland, OH, her birthplace. I hope it'll be considered.
  • Listening to Judy Garland sing “somewhere over the rainbow” literally sent chills through me. In fact the entire movie has always had that affect !

    When I was about eight years old (1957) my mom got me into the car and drove me to the movie theater. She did not tell me what I was going to see. She gave me money for a ticket (things were a lot safer back then) and drove away. She did not discuss what I was about to see. I had no clue. I remember watching the black and white beginning. It bored me. Then the house came tumbling down. I was stunned! I was in awe! My mom picked me up after the film ended. She knew what she was doing. Thanks Mom!

    Lahr was the biggest comedic actor at the time. There was so much talent in this cast. Thank you for such a respectful tribute.

    My dad had Ray Bolger for a passenger once. He sat in the cockpit and joked with them the entire trip. Very nice man.

    Mother was 15 when she saw the movie. She said the audience did a collective gasp when Dorothy opens the door into Oz. The film makes me cry due to sentimentality. This video brought out tears as well. I’m 62 and still love the film.

    The story of an orphan living on a farm with an uncle and aunt. Swept up in a battle with an evil character with magical powers and a powerful army. At first the young orphan was at a loss against the overwelming odds, but eventually elevated to the point of winning a victory. Part of the journey has the hero orphan teaming up with a metal man and furry creature outcasts. I am of course talking about Star Wars.

    The greatest movie ever made. The incredible technology still stands up 80 years later. Everything about it is perfection. I’m 67 and still watch it every year. 💕
  • @WomanRoaring
    Growing up I watched this movie every year with my grandma. It was one of her favorite movies when she was a kid. Judy and Shirley Temple were her favorite actors.
