„Es hat die Attraktivität eines tatsächlichen Horrors“: Wie die Rückkehr zu Oz zu einem der dunkelsten Kinderfilme wurde, die jemals gedreht wurden

It’s a fantastic film, and one of my all time favourites, along with the 1939 film, and I appreciate the two very different and iconic takes on the beloved original book. It is interesting that Murch originally wanted to make a film truer to the original stories than the 1939 film but the end result took even more liberties with the source material than the Wizard of Oz did. I guess it shows how much ideas can grow and evolve and change beyond the original concept in your head.
