Behind the scenes of "The Wizard of Oz," 1939. The last photo is my favorite.

Why I liked, despite all its flaws (Chevy Chase, ahem), the movie "Under the Rainbow". Grew up watching Billy Barty as a kiddie TV host (and went to see him once, but did not meet him personally), and seeing him portray a Nazi Villain was a hoot.

My parents had a whole book about the making of "The Wizard of Oz", and I read it a thousand times growing up. Fascinating picture.

This is the book. Fun read if you can find a copy!
