"The Wizard of Oz"
We didn't have a color TV and I was around 3 or 4 yrs old.
We were visiting a neighbor's house who had a color TV and The "Wizard of Oz" was on. What a mesmerizing scene to see Dorothy walk into Oz from black and white to color !
I got a taste of what it must have been like for movie goers back in the day when it was released !
The witch scared me a Lot and so did those feet of the wicked witch of the East that scrunched up [ so creepy ] after the ruby slippers were magically taken from her by the good witch. lol !
The cowardly lion was my favorite character and still is. :o)

The first time I cried in a movie theater was the being forced to leave Anatevka scene from "Fiddler On The Roof" in 1971 - I tried not to cry, but couldn't help it - such a moving scene - pun not intended.

Original Message How old were you? What about it caught your attention?

The first one I remember having a REAL influence on me and making me think and question was "On a clear day you can see Forever" even though it was a cheesy 70's musical the subject of reincarnation addressed fascinated me and being raised in a strict Christian home that shunned and forbid any concept that was not "traditional" it was the first time I had ever heard of such a thing. I was about 8 or 9 and remember watching it on television in the late 70's in the very early hours of the morning ... I have always had insomnia ... After seeing it I started reading everything I could on the subject ... which led me many other directions throughout my life.
