The Wizard of Oz
? How?
It's interesting how movies, say
Charlie and the Chocolate Factory
which produces a simple enough message to get across and portray accurately enough with Johnny Depp, are both accurate iconic-ly and a remarkable accomplishment? as well as interesting in general and as you might say "Burtonesque??" sometiems.

All actors are worth it, some stand out, but that doesn't always matter. I tend not to see things all the time the same way.
True, there is a stamp of the past embedded in
The Wizard of Oz
. I'm glad they didn't do sequels, but it would be fun. It just became overly icon-ized, maybe honestly like "to no end" if you follow. It might be endearing to some more than others. I like the play a lot, it has a dancing jitterbug scene that made me more interested in dance than theater, but I still respect both and desire both.
If I did acting, I'd want to look real good but not be presented alone, see what I mean?
