Over The Rainbow – The Wizard Of Oz – London Musical
The Wizard of Oz 1939
The Wonderful Wizard of Oz!
This trailer is from the mid-50s when they tried to edit the 1939 Wizard of Oz movie for widescreen, but the colour is orginal I think.

What a remarkable film it was for its time, and how appropriate to be making a stage revival in 2010 of all years.
