"Oh, what a world! What a world! Who would have thought a good little girl like you could destroy my beautiful wickedness?" We made it to 250 episodes and what an opportunity to bring you the end all be all of a literal Movie That Made Us Gay! We welcome back the hilarious H. Alan Scott to review this cinema classic starring Judy Garland and Margaret Hamilton as two of the most iconic characters of the silver screen. This movie is woven into the fabric of our culture - from casual recognition even if you've never seen it (how?) right down to the commemorative plate collecting, memorabilia fanatics. We talk about the inherent queerness of this movie, its enduring legacy in our community and we even squeeze in an FMK with the Scarecrow, Tin Man and Cowardly Lion. Do we identify more and more with the Wicked Witch of the West as we inch toward Elder Gay status? Absolutely. We never thought of ourselves as die-hard Wizard of Oz gays but it turns out our commorative 3D Bluray and waaay to many pics from the Motion Picture Academy Museum exhibit might say otherwise.
