Your favorite teen show!

As you know, I take great pride in exercising my fondest memories of being scared as a young one. Return to Oz is no exception, as I briefly examined it in a previous "Scary Moments" post in which I talked about the horridness of those pesky Wheelers. This time however, I felt it necessary to revisit the movie as a whole because there has always been something that has bothered me. I feel this a lot of times with fantasy oriented children's movies- and you even see it in the original Wizard of Oz. There is a fine line between the main character's fantasy and reality. By that I mean you could choose to believe that Dorothy really did venture off to Oz, or you could accept the fact that she built that dream world based on different experiences and different images she took in during the time before her accident. Call me cynical or whatever but it really makes me sad to think that that magical journey never happened. Children's fantasies of course are not the only ones to do such a thing, as I can think of many other recent horror movies that follow that same pattern. I guess I shouldn't name them since they are fairly new and I don't want to get anyone's panties in a twist. In any case, despite the obvious message being that there is nothing wrong with imagination, and that crazy things can happen just in your mind- I'm still kind of sour about the whole thing. Return to Oz, certainly more so than the Wizard of Oz is extremely guilty of giving us every single piece of evidence that would prove Dorothy only made it up. After a careful viewing I found evidence for almost everything that exists- the things I cannot are merely things Dorothy "remembers" from her last trip to Oz. Of course, with Return to Oz things are taken to a more depressing area, as in the beginning Dorothy's remembering of Oz causes Aunt Em and Uncle Henry to take her to a place that specializes in electroshock therapy. This makes things more depressing because we start to wonder, if Dorothy really is making these places up--could she really be "crazy" after all? The logical answer of course is no- she's just using her imagination which in the 1900s was an idea not yet explored. But let's face it- seeing weird little girls in the mirror, thinking that her chicken can talk? It's all a little too weird if you ask me. But yes, yes, imagination! The point is like most things, there is an ambiguity to what we choose to believe. Like the key that Dorothy finds on the farm, You could choose to believe that it's just an ordinary key, OR you could choose to believe that the key says OZ. It's all very up in the air which is actually a lot more than I can say for a recent "thriller" also involving psychological themes. Anywho let's start with the beginning and the most obvious parts of Dorothy's dream that are clearly taken from her everyday life, the main characters. This is something that echoes perfectly with the original film- as all the characters there too are based on people that Dorothy met before the tornado. First we have the doctor Who tries to give Dorothy Electroshock Therapy only to fail because- surprise an electrical storm happens. Due to this sort of evilness, the doctor obviously becomes a villain in Dorothy's dream. The evil Gnome king. The man who took over OZ after Dorothy left the first time and her ruby slippers fell off her feet and onto his. Yeah it's a little drag queenish, don't worry about it. Just like the doctor was trying to destroy Dorothy's mind- so was the Gnome king trying to destroy the land of Oz. Evil, evil man! Next up- the horrid looking Nurse Wilson. This minion to the doctor seems horribly evil, with her pointy shoulders, her stone cold looks, and the fact that she's just scary. She also carries a key that is always attached to her. Just like the evil Princess Mambi in Oz Who has the pleasure of changing her head whenever she feels like it, Thanks to her room full of heads and her ruby key that she keeps attached to her at all times. And since she has 30 heads to choose from, guess what her original head looks like? Ah yes just like Nurse Wilson! Next, onto the Wheelers! These are some of the more clever character's that travel over as they are imprinted both by physical memory and by sound- which is somewhat rare in these instances. The men who wheel around the horrid gurneys with the squeakiest wheels in the whole world. They are pale and creepy and their 1900s scrubs are extremely long and bothersome. And the screechy sound of the gurney is all too terrible to forget. It is no surprise that they would come back to haunt Dorothy- and it's no surprise that they are one of the scariest things in the entire movie. Their wheels make the same noise as the gurneys, and their extremely long coats perfectly resemble the orderlies from the real world. The only thing that trips me up is their completely insane attitude. Perhaps the orderlies experimented with the Electroshock Therapy themselves? Next up, Dorothy's friends. First, one of the more disturbing inspirations, the actual Electroshock Therapy Machine. The doctor so nicely explains to Dorothy that it's really not a scary machine at all, because it looks like it has a face! When the lightning storms shuts down the power Dorothy is left alone with the machine and is startled when she realizes that it is still ticking, thanks to the gear that was nice and wound up. I suppose the doctor's story caused Dorothy to believe him and she went on to imagine the machine as one of her very best friends, Tick Tock. Who comes with specific gears that require him to be wound up. Still one of the stranger memories carried over, I suppose it does speak largely to the fact of what a child truly finds terrifying and what they oddly find comforting. While in the care of this creepy experimental hospital, Dorothy meets a strange young girl with blonde hair. We are never told who she is, but we know she runs around barefoot, and tells Dorothy about the "damaged" patients screaming in the basement. She helps Dorothy escape and apparently drowns when the wooden crate they hold onto gets weighed down by the current. Perhaps out of guilt from letting the girl drown, or simply because Dorothy really is in Oz, this girl gets transformed into Ozma, the rightful ruler of Oz. Next up, while in the hospital, Ozma brings Dorothy a jack-o-lantern in celebration of the upcoming Halloween holiday. This Jack-o-Lantern gets transformed into the poor man's version of a scarecrow, Jack Pumpkinhead To drill this point even more home, Jack often laments about his "mother" who we later find out is actually Ozma. Which makes sense in the real world, since Ozma brought the pumpkin to Dorothy in the first place! Now this next one took a little digging. The final friend is a giant Moose head called a "gump". And at first I thought he was just the odd thing out that couldn't be explained. But then I saw this over the shoulder of Nurse Wilson in one scene, Well it's a deer head yes, but still the perfect inspiration for Dorothy's couch flying gump. That does it for friends and enemies, so next I will show you some random instances of things that carried over from the real world into Dorothy's dream world. These are perhaps some of the more interesting finds. As Aunt Em leaves for the night she leaves Dorothy with her lunch pail. Evil Nurse Wilson says the lunch pail isn't necessary and leaves it on the gurney as she takes Dorothy to her room. Possibly because Nurse Wilson promised Dorothy food that she never got, or because Dorothy really wanted whatever it was in the lunch pail. She ended up receiving that lunch pail later in her dream. Thanks to the lunch pail trees! Now here's a rather interesting connection. While staying in the hospital, Dorothy's room number is 31. And if you remember earlier I said that Princess Mambi had 30 different heads to choose from, which would make her original head number 31. And guess which number cabinet her original head sleeps in? Of course! Cabinet number 31! Now here's something really interesting. A reverse instance of imprinting. After Oz goes back to normal, a procession makes it's way through the Emerald City, where Princess Mambi is lead in a big cage. In the real world, Dorothy finds out after she wakes up that the asylum burnt to the ground, and she later sees Nurse Wilson being lead away by the police in a simliar cage/jail carriage. I'm not really sure how to decipher this, how can Dorothy's dreams predict the future??! This is the one instance where things don't really make sense. This instance neither supports the it was all dream or the it was all real angle, so what is it's purpose? Then there are of course tons of other finds, like all the green leafy plants in the asylum that perfectly mirror the green plants in Princess Mambi's room. The typical sofa in the doctor's office, that is mirrored as the sofa Dorothy and her friends use to escape from Mambi's castle. The little trinkets on the doctor's desk, which correspond to the trinkets in his lair that the group has to choose from to find the Scarecrow. The list is endless and like I said, it's very possible to find evidence that supports that everything in Dorothy's return trip to Oz, is also found in her real life--which of course forces us to believe that Dorothy's trip to Oz probably never happened. And yes I do suppose it is a movie, and a fantasy movie at that, so we have to submit to that idea and just take in the fantasy. That however doesn't change the fact that it's kind of weird that they showed us an explanation for EVERYTHING. What is there left to believe? Whether you choose to believe in Dorothy's fantasy, or choose to go along the route of reality, Return to Oz is still a joy to revisit after all these years. Nostalgia practically pours out of the screen and I just can't get enough. While it probably won't stand up as a good movie to anyone that did not see it when they were younger, you can't deny some of those scarier scenes- and plus it's little Fairuza Balk! You have to love it.

Continuing our look at the film, The Sound of Music, which is celebrating it's 50th Anniversary this year. As with any iconic movie, costumes play an integral part. This is the case with The Sound of Music. The costumes in the film convey the time, the place, and character of the person wearing them. The costumes were designed by Dorothy Jeakins. It was her favorite project and garnered her an academy award nomination (she was the very first costume designer to win an academy award, beating Edith Head. The film of Joan of Arc in 1948). "I loved working on it. Bob Wise [the director] told me he didn't want saccharine costumes. He gave me a sense of the story's essence, and then he let me do my job." "The children literally grew before my eyes," remembered Dorothy. "Especially Nicholas [Friedrich]." He grew from 5'3" to 5'9" during the course of filming (quotes taken from "Forever Leisl: A Memoir of The Sound of Music" by Charmian Carr, p. 35, © 2000). "Dorothy conducted painstaking research on Austrian garb, even down to the designs used on men's buttons of the day. Julie Andrews, the film's “Maria”, related that Miss Jeakins' focus was on making garments as authentic as possible, using lacing and buttons in place of zippers. Julie also revealed that of all the costumes she's worn during her many years on stage and screen, she never felt more beautiful than in the silk wedding dress Dorothy designed for The Sound of Music." - source Many of the costumes were auctioned off in 2013, bringing in sums anywhere between $23,000 (the wedding dress) and $1.56 million (the outfits for the "Do-re-mi" number). You can look at the original auction site here. Below are photos of the costumes. Can you identify who wore each outfit and in what scene? List of costumes that were auctioned. Liesl's famous gazebo dress "Julie Andrews, who played Maria, had the elfin proportions of her time. ‘You’re talking about a 16in or 18in waist,’ says Lou Bustamante, the creative director of Profiles In History. ‘She’s a pretty thin, tall woman and waist measurements back then compared to today were just out of this world.’ Despite its itty-bitty proportions, the Do-Re-Mi dress is rather unprepossessing, made of a thick brown raw silk and paired with a wheat-coloured blouse, ‘it was designed with the idea that she was poor,’ says Joe Maddalena, though ironically it’s now the most valuable dress of the collection" - source "What child watching the film didn’t beg their parents for a curtain dress? But one child who wasn’t entranced was Kym Karath, who played Gretl, the youngest von Trapp. ‘I hated that costume,’ she laughs. ‘Loathed it! I was five at the time but I loved clothes and was acutely aware of what looked pretty. The curtain dress just didn’t look pretty to me. It was my least favourite costume.’ And what of Nicholas Hammond, who played the eldest son, Friedrich? He not only had to suffer the ignominy of wearing lederhosen, but floral-patterned lederhosen at that. ‘Poor Nicky had endless amounts of trauma,’ says Kym. ‘It wasn’t just the lederhosen – he had to bleach his hair blonde too.’ The costume designer Dorothy Jeakins, who had worked on The Ten Commandments and The Night Of The Iguana, was Oscar-nominated for her work on The Sound Of Music. She was a stickler for authenticity, right down to making sure the curtain outfits were made from... well, curtains. ‘It’s real canvas, curtain material for sure,’ says Joe. They do look fairly drab in the flesh, ‘but the colours of the clothes change dramatically when you light them and Technicolor changes everything.’ Several versions of each costume were made, which came in handy for scenes such as the one where the canoe capsizes on the lake and the children fall into the water (‘I couldn’t swim,’ says Kym, ‘so that was a horrible experience – you can see how scared I look in the movie’), and also for when they started to grow, which during an almost six-month shoot was inevitable." - source Carriage ride dress and apron Brigitta's costume Liesl's carriage ride dress Liesl's Edelweiss dress Marta's Edelweiss dress Louisa's Edelweiss dress Liesl's party dress, worn with a yellow sash and flowers Maria's gazebo dress A behind-the-scenes photo of the wedding dress The children in their wedding outfits Maria's final costumes Liesl's "16 Going on 17 Reprise" dress These costumes were auctioned off for $150,000 Check out this board on Pinterest for more pictures of the costumes!

Movies have the amazing ability of taking us to a completely different world where anything is possible. When immersed in a film, we usually don't stop and think whether this would be possible in real life, but rather fall into the movie's magic and let it dazzle us. However, the film industry is not as glamorous as it seems, as countless hours of work go into their production. For the cast and crew, it means hard labor, which usually includes long shooting hours and many retakes. However, most of us would really like to peek into this whole different life, even if just for a moment. Therefore, Bored Panda compiled a list for you of moments that were captured between takes, so you could get that sneak peak into some of your favorite movies.
