‘Blue Velvet’: A Must-Watch Secret ‘Wizard of Oz’ Adaptation That Came Before ‘Wicked’

I absolutely adore The Wizard of Oz. It started as a series of wonderful children’s books by L. Frank Baum, but the movie? It really became the gold standard for movie magic, as far as I’m concerned. The moment Dorothy’s house lifts off from Kansas and lands in Oz, you’re swept away to this unbelievably colorful and imaginative world – it’s exactly what going to the movies should feel like! It’s inspired so many people over the years, and I was fascinated to learn that the brilliant David Lynch always considered it his favorite film. It just proves what a timeless masterpiece it truly is.
