Product description
Product Description
Classic musical adaptation of the L. Frank Baum novel starring Judy Garland, Ray Bolger, Bert Lahr and Jack Haley. A tornado whisks Dorothy (Garland) and her house from Kansas to Munchkin City, squashing the Wicked Witch of the East upon landing. The Wicked Witch of the West (Margaret Hamilton) vows revenge, while Dorothy sets off on the yellow brick road to see the Wizard of Oz (Frank Morgan), hoping he can tell her how to get home. On the way she makes friends with a scarecrow (Bolger), a tin man (Haley) and a cowardly lion (Lahr) - all of whom have specific reasons for wanting to meet the magical Wizard. With the Wicked Witch out to get her, will Dorothy ever get home again?
Amazon.co.uk Review
Young Dorothy Gale (played by Judy Garland), her dog, Toto, and her three companions on the yellow brick road to Oz -- the Tin Man (Jack Haley), the Cowardly Lion (Bert Lahr), and the Scarecrow (Ray Bolger) -- have become pop-culture icons and central figures in the legacy of fantasy for children. Actress Margaret Hamilton, the Wicked Witch who covets Dorothy's enchanted ruby slippers, has had the singular honour of scaring the wits out of children for more than six decades. The film's still as fresh, frightening and funny as it was when first released in 1939. It may take some liberal detours from the original story by L. Frank Baum, but it's loyal to the Baum legacy while charting its own course as a spectacular film. Partly shot in glorious Technicolor, befitting its dynamic production design (Munchkinland alone is a psychedelic explosion of colour and decor), The Wizard of Oz may not appeal to every taste as the years go by, but it's nonetheless required viewing for kids of all ages. --Jeff Shannon

The steelbook itself is quite good, not the best ever, but a good design nonetheless. Thee poppies are not as vibrant as in the picture, they only look that way at certain angles. Dorothy has a different finish to the rest of the steelbook, more glossy, and the title has been embossed (think thats the right term). Inside are two discs, one 4K disc with the movie, and a documentary (not in 4k), with the rest of the special features on the standard blu-ray disc. Many reviews on the internet show people recieving a digital code with this set, but it seems that the UK release does not contain that, as the only paper is an ad for the much larger collector's set.
The 4K HDR is possibly the best quality of this movie you will ever see, with incredibally deep blacks and the vibrancy of the technicolor is fully depicted. For an example, you only need to look at the Wicked Witch of the West, whose jet black cloack perfectly contrasts the now visible menagerie of greens that make up her complection. Dorothy's freckles are very visible, and the only downside to this clarity is that you can really tell how much makeup was caked onto Judy Garland's face. And a personal first, I never realized that the farm help at the beginning of the movie are actually Dorothy's 3 companions during the rest of the film (although this has more to do with my ineptitude and less with the film itself).
Overall, Warner Bros. have really done this film justice with this restoration, and they most certainly have struck a goldmine, as any fan would be a fool not to buy this version of the film. Steelbook optional, of course.
