The wizard of oz?

Question

In the movie, "The Wizard of Oz" I have a theory that Dorithy died when the twister ripped up her house. Where she went "OZ" was in fact a realm between good and evil heaven and hell and the yellow brick road was a road to heaven where she was disturbed by the devil a few times ( witch), she encounterd a few lost soals"scare crow, tin man & lion " they went to go see God who sent them on a quest to steal satins pitch fork ( witches broom ) to see if they were worthy enough to come through ther gates of heaven. when they came back the lost soals were granted into heaven but it wasnt dorithy's time yet and she was sent back to her life.

Have I lost my mind or does that make sence?

Answer 1

That's an interesting theory, but things in Baum's book reflected social and economic problems within the United States at that time. Dorothy's shoes were originally silver and she walked on a road of gold brick, to reflect the struggle of silver vs. gold backing our national currency. The desolate fields and sepia color (in the movie) of Kansas reflected the drought that state and perhaps a few others were going through. I can't remember who Dorothy stood for, but I remember the scarecrow represented the farmers, the tinsman - railroad and industry, and the cowardly lion reflected the politicians. It's actually all very interesting.

Answer 2

Wizard, of direction. For the functional motive that during 1939, Special Effects, Screen Graphics, Animation, Digital, and so Very Many tech marvels Were Not Created, Nonexistent then. "They Did All By Hand, With truly Sweat, and in the course of Years", till the film used to be performed for the general public. The Wizard of Oz is likely one of the everlasting classics in movie historical past, and one of the most finest achievements of all instances simply since of the ones factors, amongst many, many others.

Answer 3

That certainly is a innovative way to interpret the movie. If that was the message that Hollywood was sending with that movie I would have to disagree with it though.

Jesus is the only way to reach heaven and there are no "deeds" that we could accomplish that would make us worthy of entering heaven. It is only the free gift of salvation that was paid for by the blood of Jesus that will grant us access to heaven if we believe in him and follow his commandments.

You are very creative. Just try not to be too over-analytical or you will probably fry your brain one day :)

Have a great day and God bless!

Answer 4

It does make sense. There are plenty of other symbologies to that story. Have you ever read the book?

In my history class we compared the book to historical events pertaining to the People's Party back in the 1800's. When we were through with that project, we discussed many other symbolisms to go with this plotline.

Nice connections by the way.

Answer 5

I always thought the wizard as seen in all his fire and brimstone, was God and the great arbiter of mankind. By looking at the man behind the curtain, we've taken off our rose-colored glasses and faced a grim reality of a world without religion....a not so shiny world.

Answer 6

I like that logic. It actually sounds plausible, if you think about. I'm a fan of The Wizard of Oz and even named my dog after toto.

Answer 7

See if you can find a copy of Zardoz, staring Sean Connery. The theme presented in the video is more plausible. (Nothing wrong with your viewpoint).

Answer 8

It makes a lot of sence but i must say you have too much free time on your hands. and ummmm... it's Dorthy not Dorithy.

Answer 9

Whoa, dude. Overanalyzation. But I guess it does kinda make sense...maybe.

Answer 10

They iz a phrase to use on questions like yerz-

"Too much thinkin' !!!!!"
