The Wizard of Oz: An Enduring Classic of Film and Literature
Judy Garland’s portrayal of Dorothy Gale in the iconic 1939 film “The Wizard of Oz” is a classic that is difficult to match. However, one girl’s costume for Halloween comes close to capturing the spirit and essence of the character. With her perfect resemblance to the character, and her faithful companion Toto by her side, it seems as though she was destined to dress up as Dorothy. It’s a costume that she may have even recycled a few times due to its timeless appeal.
Dorothy and Toto are a famous literary duo, and their adventures in the land of Oz have become a beloved part of popular culture. While they may be quite different from Tweedledee and Tweedledum, they are no less iconic. The only thing missing from the girl’s costume is the yellow brick road, but her use of brick houses is a creative and fitting substitute. Overall, her costume is a testament to the enduring appeal of “The Wizard of Oz” and its timeless status as a classic of film and literature.
