Great points. My mother took me to see it on Broadway. We were mesmerized by the whole thing. Just a completely joyous affair. Then the film came out. Thud city. Diana Ross destroyed that film. Nothing at all like "Dorothy" should be.....way too old, crying, whining. The whole movie was just so "over" everything.....they threw in everything but the kitchen sink. And it sunk. I love "The Wiz"...the story, that score. I wish it was remade....this time into a quality movie musical.
