Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts

1. Who is the director (credited) for the "Wizard of Oz?"

Answer: Victor Fleming

There were 4 directors. Richard Thorpe (2 weeks), George Cukor (3 days), Victor Fleming (3 months), and King Vidor (10 days).

2. Who played Glinda, the Good Witch of the North?

Answer: Billie Burke

Margaret Hamilton played the Wicked Witch of the West, Gale Sondergard was originally set to play the role of the Wicked Witch of the West, and Ed Wynn was a joke!

3. A Munchkin hung himself on the set of the Tin Man scene.

Answer: False

This is actually a man trying to catch a crane sent over by the Los Angeles Zoo. Personally, I think he slipped and was hanging from his hands by a branch. I hope the rumor is finally quashed.

4. What did the Munchkins do when Glinda told Dorothy to go see the Wizard?

Answer: bow

She says "The only person who might know would be the great and wonderful Wizard of Oz himself." The Munchkins bowed.

5. What did Aunt Em say that she was, that made her unable to tell Miss Gulch what she thought she thought of her?

Answer: a Christian woman

This was a very funny line!

6. The Munchkins were all drunks and held wild parties off the set.

Answer: False

The Munchkins were very dedicated to filming the "Wizard of Oz" and they had to learn to lip-sync their lines because the only ones who sang for themselves were the two Munchkins in "We Thank You Very Sweetly." Jerry Maren, one of the Lollypop Guild, said that two brothers were a little drunky, but not on the set. He also said that one man drank quite a bit, but he was very quiet.

7. Who wrote the original book "The Wonderful Wizard of Oz?"

Answer: L. Frank Baum

He got the name "Oz" from his filing cabinet. The first drawer said "A-N" and the second drawer said "O-Z."

8. Billie Burke played the Wicked Witch of the West.

Answer: False

Billie Burke played Glinda, the Good Witch of the North.

9. Did Buddy Ebsen die of his allergic reaction to his aluminum powder makeup?

Answer: No

He didn't, but he almost died. He went on to play Jed Clampett on "The Beverly Hillbillies."

10. How long is the director's cut of "The Wizard of Oz?"

Answer: 2 hours

They never put one out, though! I hear that some concepts were thrown out before the last revision of the script, like a funeral march sung by the Winkies "Death to the Wizard of Oz." And about two or three more.
