I always thought I liked the film 'The Wizard of Oz' – it is in some way a part of our cultural mythology – until I actually saw it. It contains two good lines that I recall:

(Wizard: 'I am Oz the Mighty and Magnificent')

Dorothy: I am Dorothy the small and meek.'

[and]

'I can't wait to get out of Oz.'

It is a truly bad {(i.e. poor)} film.**

*[Sic – Dorothy (Gale), of course.]

**and a truly poor story. <880108>
