The Wizard of Oz (1939)

The 70th anniversary version on DVD is now available from Warner Brothers.

The Wiz (1978)

This urban, African-American reinterpretation of the story was both a critical failure and a box office failure at the time of release. Since then, though, it has continued to stand as an emblem of 1970s Black film, complete with Diana Ross as Dorothy and a young Michael Jackson as the Scarecrow.
