Movies from Yesteryear

Tue Aug. 18 - Blog Prompt: Seventy years ago today the Wizard of Oz premiered. What is your favorite children's movie?

Bizarre as it might seem, my favorite childhood movie was Invaders From Mars (1953). Not really a children's movie, but just as riveting to my mind. Next would be any of the Shirley Temple movies. It was a guarantee that I would be parked in front of the tv on Sunday afternoons to watch whatever Shirley Temple was coming on.

I love those kinds of movies, but I don't seem to remember that film. I will have to look it up.

Actually... Wizard of Oz.

Back in the broadcast-only stone age, they'd run that movie once a year, and I'd never miss it.
