Is there anyone who hasn't seen The Wizard of Oz? Anyone have any bad memories from seeing it as a kid?
Judy Garland was 16 when she was cast in the role of Dorothy. I wonder how many dogs have been named Toto since this film was released?
Toto is referred to in one of my favorite movies, "Amelie". Amélie is told by her neighbor that the name Bretodeau (a man she's searching for) is pronounced, in part, like "Toto":
"You know, They call me the crystal man. But my name is Raymond Dufayel.
-Amélie Poulain I'm a waitress .
-At the "Deux Moulins", I know. And you're coming back empty-handed from your hunt for Bretodeau. Because it's not "do", it's "to". Like "Toto".
-Thanks."
Without a doubt the best Wizard of Oz pack break I have ever read on a blog!
ReplyDeleteI'll take that as a compliment.
DeleteDid you ever notice that the Glinda the Good Witch kinda looks like Bonnie Raitt?
ReplyDeleteBy god you're right. And they can both sing but very different voices.
