This one was suggested by the Krugman post I referenced in my previous post. I know that we’re all supposed to believe that Citizen Kane is the best movie ever made, and it was a great movie, but for my money, the prize should go to the Wizard of Oz. How many times have you watched Citizen Kane? How many times have you watched the Wizard of Oz. I rest my case.
The movie version is not on youtube, locked up perpetually in copyright heaven, no doubt. But here’s July Garland performing it during World War II, and it’s a great performance.
