"Pay no attention to that man behind the curtain." I always giggle at that.

[NoriMori]

"I'm a very good man. I'm just a very bad wizard." I love that line.

[XWFwrestling]

1:16 When you finally confront the guy who's been talking crap online

[NeonTailzzz]

I gotta love how despite Dorothy calling herself "the small and meek, " she's the only one who's ever actually stood up to Oz (or who we thought was Oz)

In fact, this whole movie is just her severely underestimating herself

[nixachlys]

I'm not gonna lie, "Wizard of Oz" is a great classic

I really love Toto! Not only he's so cute, he's really smart! The way he pulled the curtain himself is so adorable!

[andrewsstation]

"If you're really great and powerful you'd keep your promises."


You couldn't have said that any better Dorothy.

[StarBoy]

"Oh, you liquidated her, eh? Very resourceful!"

[justingreen]

that "man behind the curtain" bit is such comedic gold! his delivery of the line is so funny! Like, you can tell he is nervous but still trying to sound intimidating! hahaha its so perfect!

[TMCNJ]

“Pay no attention to that man behind the curtain” will always be my favorite movie quote… rings true to how the world is being run nowadays it’s ironic 😂

[cybremystica]

Toto is the best boy for exposing the wizard. He stood up to lion when he was a bully too. He has the most brains, courage and heart of all. Just like Dorothy

[rstein]

0:36 is a minor but brilliant moment in the film.

If you watch quick enough, the Cowardly Lion finally stands up to the 'Wizard' and that's without Scarecrow or Tin Man intervening unlike when they forced him to lead the way into the castle to save Dorothy.

In other words Lion finally found the backbone to stand up for himself and his friends.

Brilliant directing.

[nickp]

“Pay no attention to the man behind the curtain!” I just love the sound of that line.

[aryastark]

One of the best films ever made. Just brilliant and iconic

[ryanstauffer]

I like the way the Cowardly Lion says "Yeah!" at 0:35. In the book, he roars in anger instead, but it still gives the message that he is showing courage in that moment. That is until we see his legs shake at 0:38.

[rionfouts]

"Pay no attention to the man behind the curtain. THE GREAT OZ HAS SPOKEN!!!!"

[michaelgonzalez]

Scarecrow : You Humbug!
Lion : Yeah
The Wizard : Yess That's Exactly so I'm a Humbug

[trancelover]

The wizard is really the villain of the whole movie. He arrived in Oz and managed to hoodwink an entire naive community. He used his earthly knowledge of technology to perhaps spare himself from the evil of the witches. He had the whole Emerald city worship him as if he was some kind of deity. Despite never having been seen by most inhabitants. He asked a 12-year-old girl to risk her life to collect a broomstick from a psychopathic witch of unfathomable evil. He made the lion so scared he jumped through a window, which could have killed him. He was selfish, cowardly and a charlatan. Pay no attention to the man behind the curtain. Very important line on how people and organizations can manipulate you. Fine when they have others behind them, but clueless when confronted on their own with logical questions. Maybe I am over analyzing a family movie, but this man was a villain. I think Dorothy had it right "you're a very bad man". Great respect for all the actors who did an amazing performance in this classic movie.

Rest In Peace cast of The wizard of Oz

"And you promised to give me some courage" - Cowardly lion 🦁

[keshiaanders]

As a kid it really bothered me that the Wizard didn't explain why he wanted the witch's broomstick in the first place (other than proof that Dorothy & friends conquered her).

It made much more sense in the book when he asked for the Wicked Witch's crystal ball-like eye. The Wizard was afraid that that the Wicked Witch was going to use her magic eye & expose him for the big phoney that he is.
