If you really liked the Wizard of Oz, then when you got the DVD and looked at the cut stuff, you found a second singing of Over the Rainbow.
Dorothy was captured in the Witch's castle, in the room with the big crystal ball, and had one hour to live. She sang a fearful, teary version of a kid that knew she was going to die. If they would have left that song in, I'd be GWTW would have had a run for the oscar that year.
But it was dropped because the movie was too long. The footage is lost, never to be seen again. A recording of her singing it is all that is left.
It is great!

I never knew that, and guess what. I DO have that DVD. I guess I should watch it. Thanks.
