When they switched from B&W to colorized...


I swear it was like magic. I had to rewind and watch it again.

Me too. First time was in the cinema. I could here everyone gasping when it switched.

I remember my mum saying when she saw The Wizard of Oz as a kid, when Dorothy steps out of the house into Munchkin land. I think that was the first time a lot of ppl saw a Colour movie. And l felt the same for this movie.

Yes, an incredible moment. I couldn't believe how fantastic the restoration was, just amazing work.

Yes, I was a little disappointed before that with the feeling I'd been swindled.

Don't forget about the sound, from mono to surround. If you watched it on crappy TV speakers, then you missed half the restoration work.
