The courageous little lion corresponds to the frightened uncle in reality. Dorothy fell from the pigsty. The uncle panted with fright. Dorothy was still laughing at him: Why are you half as scared as I am.
The scarecrow without a head is the real uncle named Dorothy who wants to use his brain, not to stuff his head with straw1.
The courageous Tin Man is the uncle who brags in reality that the city will build a bronze statue for him in the future2.
In reality, Uncle 1 tells Dorothy to use his brains. If you don’t walk, the garden dog Toto won’t go in and catch chickens. When he gets to the fairyland, the corresponding scarecrow appears at the fork to show Dorothy the way.
There is also the magician who has become a magician in the wonderland, there is also the crystal ball, and the bad woman who wants to take the dog Toto away.

There are many examples of such back-and-forth echoes in the movie, which makes this story very authentic. It is really like a dream of Dorothy. In the dream, people from reality are entered in one generation, and she is looking for home with her. The way. I have to doubt that the author must be familiar with psychology, know how to suggest, subconsciously, and even read Freud's "Analysis of Dreams", otherwise it would have written this dream so real.
Many famous books about fairy tales are innocent and imaginative, but among the works I have seen, only the Wizard of Oz can be written before and after on this basis. It is not just for the strange and the strange, but for the strange. On the basis of fun, it presents the truth and logic, and connects the imagination with wisdom, instead of letting it go unconstrained.
A group of people looking for a return journey of courage, love, and wisdom. When watching the movie, I really feel like a child, feeling this innocence and simplicity.
The Scarecrow finally had wisdom. In fact, he always had it. He would make plans to rescue Dorothy, but he didn't realize his wisdom.
The little lion also gains courage on the way to find the magician; and the Tin Man also puts his heart on himself, when he knows that the basis for evaluating a heart is not how much you love others, but how much others love others. When you, he also realized his heart.
Therefore, it is not the magicians who gave them wisdom, courage and love, but they gained these on the way they were searching. What an enlightening meaning: Those powers are not given to you by others, but you are given to you through searching, struggling, passing tests...difficulties!
How can I praise this story?
(Digression: This movie was actually made in 1939! You know it was not a few years before the end of the Long March of the Chinese Red Army. But now you look at the scene and the special effects... I can't imagine how much they are ahead of us in these aspects. year.)
