Book Vs. Movie: The Wizard of Oz(Replay in honor of Wicked!)
The Margos celebrate the new
Wicked movie starring Cynthia Erivo and Ariana Grande with a replay of our beloved episode devoted to
L. Frank Baum and
The Wizard of Oz. The book presents a vast, detailed Oz with darker undertones, while the movie streamlines the story, focusing on Dorothy’s emotional journey. Baum’s Dorothy is resourceful and independent, whereas Judy Garland’s portrayal adds warmth and vulnerability, emphasizing her longing for home.Between the technicolor 1939 classic and the original novel--which version did we prefer?
