tell that your eyelashes are there. And in one swift motion, much like the act of painting, a dollop of crimson red lines the cheekbone in a grand finale. The makeup is what makes you appear different. It keeps the illusion alive. Becoming Dorothy Gale (from Kansas) was a simple process, considering my

Wizard of Oz as a Fairytale This question is deceptive in its apparent simplicity as it raises some problematic issues, which extend beyond the text right across fairytale scholarship. The term "fairytale" itself is a contentious one and is unpopular with many folklorists (see Luthi, Warner, Luke). Often epithets like "wondertale", "magic tale" are employed. Even in some English translations of European works the more semantically accurate Russian or German terms

A gale can be defined as a strong wind, possibly blowing a vessel or person off course. In the “Wizard of Oz”, Dorothy Gale is the main character, the protagonist. Throughout the moving picture, Dorothy is repeatedly distracted during her quest, trailing off of the yellow brick road. Dorothy Gale inevitably blows off course, distracted by wants, friends, and misdemeanor. Soon after Dorothy meets The Scarecrow, she spots apples off to the side of the yellow brick road. Without a second thought, she

Brian's Song is a touching story between two football players named Brian Piccolo and Gale Sayers. They are both different in physical and emotional ways that affect their personality. They start to hate each other but then they start to support each other and have a never ending relationship that can only be broken by death. Overall not only they affect one another with their relationship, they inspire others. Brian Piccolo is the man with something always to talk about. He has social skills of

In the movie, The Wizard of Oz, when Glinda said “She had to learn it for herself,” the it was that there is no place like home, she loves her family and they love her back, and she is satisfied on the farm. First of all, part of the “it” Glinda was talking about is that there is no place like home. The movie script states, “And I'm not going to leave here ever, ever again, because I love you all! And- Oh, Auntie Em- there's no place like home!” This is one part of “it”. Dorothy has learned that

Conor I thought the Wizard of Oz was a bright and colorful moving. Being a movie that was transitioning from a black film to color it really emphasized every single color imaginable. All the colors remind of Charlie and the Chocolate Factory or Candyland. I like how Emerald city stayed true to one color to make it unique which was green. It really conveyed to the audience why it was called Emerald City just of its color scheme alone. I felt bad for the tin man because all that makeup must of been

As Dorothy enters deeper into the world of Oz, we see the vibrant color of green in the trees and the shades of yellow and blue in the flowers (Fig. 3). One remarkable aspect of the Wizard of Oz has to be Dorothy’s red, sparkly shoes, the famous ruby slippers. They were originally scripted as being silver but half way through the production they decided to change it to red to take full advantage of the capabilities of Technicolor. Another reason why they were changed to ruby red was so they can stand

Dorothy and Alice go through moments of ease and moments of hardships as they navigate their way through these unimaginable lands. The young girls are transported far away and use what they know in order to survive as they go through various emotions throughout their journey. For instance, upon Dorothy’s arrival in the land of Oz she immediately notices the beauty of this unfamiliar land, which was far different from her gray and gloomy home in Kansas. The land of Oz is described as a land filled

Dorothy from the film Wizard of Oz would be considered the hero of the film. She has the call to adventure, has a wise and helpful guide, and has to endure a road of trials. Which all prove she is a hero of some sorts. Dorothy has a calling to adventure, It may not seem like it but she’s prepared to do anything to save her dog, even go on a wicked adventure. When the neighbor lady wanted to take Toto away Dorothy was not having it. She’d rather leave, but that's when a tornado hits and she tries

For the mini biography essay about the 1930’s, I chose Judy Garland because I do not know a lot about her and the Wizard of Oz was a very good movie. She drew me in to find out more about entertainment and how movie stars were in her time. If you think back to Hollywood’s Golden Age of the 1930’s, Judy Garland would be the first to come to mind. Whether it is for her role of Dorothy in the Wizard of Oz, or her tragic death that was a shock to the nation, Judy was known as the “greatest hollywood
