In the Wizard of Oz, Dorothy just feels compelled to help a tin man who was frozen with an axe in his hand...and a scarecrow who claims he's not too smart...and a lion who chases them around until she has to smack him...Sorry, but I saw Jeepers Creepers and I don't trust those scarecrows!
It just occured to me that Auntie Em taught her better than that.
She could've had a much darker adventure if someone else had directed the movie. She got lucky didn't she?
Thoughts anybody?

As an afterthought, being that Glenda the good witch could have sent Dorothy back to Kansas at any time she wanted, was she a good witch, really? She also got the Wicked Witch of the West after Dorothy by putting the ruby slippers on her. She seems a little mischievious to me...

Well as you can see in the movie she doesn't actually seem to listen to any thing her aunt and uncle tell her so of cause, with her nature she would be willing to help some1 in need, if it meant they may have any information on how to get out of a place that she wasn't sure of, like a tourist asking for directions sorta thing. But remember she was weary of things that were still a little odd, like the munchkins, but because of the sorta girl she is she didn't feel threatened by the the tin man and the scarecrow as they were rather helpless themselves, Maybe that made her feel less alone. Saying that though yeah if that movie had been a little more R18 then it coulda got a bit more interesting. I mean come on you don't send killer monkeys out to "disable" things that cant even die with out completely disposing of the bodies properly. Um also with out getting to into the this, How could people of never seen the " Wizard of Oz" i mean he musta seen some one like set up a meeting to reserve a wee posy in the center of the town. Where he lived, he cant of just all of a sudden appeared and then every1 knew him as there "King" ..........................?????

She grew up in an early 20th century Kansas farming community. They wouldn't have had the same sort of paranoia found in modern urban America.
Glinda didn't send Dorothy back - she taught her how to use the power she already had (the ruby slippers) to take herself home. The point was that Dorothy couldn't do that until she had learned the truth of "there's no place like home".

Back then, before television, it was not taboo to talk to strangers. It was actually considered rude not to. Things have changed since then. We all feel the need to reach out to strangers. For the past 30 years we've been driven into our homes, afraid of strangers. Now, we have the internet and in some weird way are able to 'venture out' and talk to strangers, safely, once again. Isn't that why we're all on here helping out strangers? :-)

The movie is one based on occult philosophy and the obstacles to overcome, one being that the wizard is of the imagination and that the answer lies within, you have always had the power to go home, it's a choice.
