I continue to acquaint you with the memories of one of my friends, about his favorite films in his childhood.
When I was still a boy living in the US, there was a writer, American Frank Baum, who wrote 32 books about the wizard of Oz. At about ten I began to collect them, and all the children collected - this was Harry Potter of that time.
I was secretly in love with one of the heroines of this book. Her name was Ozma. She was a sorceress. I understand why children like Harry Potter so much - it's great, it's fascinating.
So the film "The Wizard of Oz" - the greatest American adaptation. I watched it in 1939, probably. The film is black and white and color: when Dorothy lives in Kansas - the movie is black and white, and when she gets to Oz - everything is colored.
Very cool it was!
