I like the 1925 movie better than the 1939 version.

In the 1925 movie, Oz is ruled by an evil junta, but the Wizard is actually a good guy. The crown princess has been smuggled to a Kansas farm, where she is raised as Dorothy. She is actually Crown Princess Dorothea of Oz. When the junta learns where she is being raised, they send agents by airplane to kidnap her. The plot fails, but a storm blows Dorothy, her cousins, and everyone else to Oz, where they must resort to hi-jinks to outwit the junta.

Thanks for that description. The ‘25 Oz sounds like an excellent plot and a really good movie. I notice it’s on Youtube. I’m planning to watch it as time permits. I’m looking forward to it!
