True, the film isn't completely faithful to the book, but why does it have to be? If I had one minor drawback, it would be the singing voice of the Lion, but apart from that, this movie is a must-see! 10/10. The songs are just fabulous, and so is the cinematography and the stunning scenery. The wicked witch of the west scared the life out of me here and still does, and even Frank Morgan does 5 roles to great comical effect. Billie Burke as Glinda, and the Munchkins were great fun too. Ray Bolger, Jack Haley and Bert Lahr are really entertaining as her three friends. Judy Garland is wonderful as Dorothy, bringing a sense of vulnerability and sadness to the role, making Over The Rainbow more poignant than it already was. I grew up watching this, Chitty Chitty Bang Bang and Meet Me in Saint Louis, and I never tire of them.

Judy Garland is wonderful as Dorothy, bringing a sense of vulnerability and sadness to the role, making Over The Rainbow more poignant than it already I am 16, and I still love this movie.
