Film buffs with a particular affection for the Wizard of Oz will
find Jay Scarfone and William Stillman's discussion of the 1939 MGM
hit to be compelling, from its foreword by the Cowardly Lion's
makeup man to its camera's-eye view of how the world created by
author L. Frank Baum was brought to life on film. From makeup and
costume choices to casting and auxiliary contributions, The Wizardry of
Oz: The Artistry And Magic of The 1939 MGM Classic appears in a newly
expanded and signficantly revised edition to provide even more insights
for fans and film students.
