My great Aunt is Billie Burke "The Good Witch". My sister looks exactly like her beautiful & sweet just like her. As a child she dressed up as The Good Witch & everyone said how much she was just like her. We told them it's bc she is related to her so.. I'm proud of Billie Burke she did an amazing job acting & looking stunning at 54 years of age while filming, I couldn't believe that when I read it. She will be forever remembered in the film. 👠👑🎩🕊🌹
I didn't know she was 54. Wow. And yes, she did a great job.
Wow,that is remarkable!! My husband and I actually got to know a relative of burt Lehr. HE was kind enough to tell us stories and showed us family pics ! May the wizard of Oz cast rest in ✌
Rest In Peace Judy Garland and Billie Burke 🌈 👠 🪄 ⭐️ WIZARD OF OZ
A couple years before Jerry Marron died I wrote to him for an autograph request and sent a 5x7 of him from the film and $10 with a self-addressed stamped envelope. A couple weeks later I got it back and it was autographed and just a couple years later he passed away.
Judy had one of the saddest stories and there were so many people who loved her, who will always remember her. She gave so many of us beautiful childhood memories that we will cherish for a lifetime. Thank you Judy
No doubt she went through a lot.
So true princesUSA2....She was so loved and did her career right. She was fabulous. ❤
@Daylight Spook I live in her hometown of Grand Rapids, Minnesota. There's a museum here in her honor.
She had a very tragic life her and Shirley Temple it is heartbreaking and they both still had beautiful smiles on their faces even though they were going through so much.
Judy did go through alot in fact everyone who did the show is dead (sadly including toto )
Buddy Ebsen was the Tin Man who got sick from the silver makeup. And he played Uncle Jed Clampet on the Beverly Hillbillies. Side note; there used to be a miniature metal mechanical / early animatronic Mach-up of him dancing in the Walt Disney Story that was at WDW on Main Street. You would have enjoyed that. I think I read where that attraction had been moved to Tokyo Disneyland. Sorry I missed the watch party, Saturday. Thank you for the videos and Happy Halloween 🎃
FunFact.
Contrary to popular belief there wasnt a munchkin swinging as tinman & scarecrow & cowardly lion & dorothy go off a skipping down the yellow brick rd as you will probably know it was a couple of pink flamingoes loitering with intent... by the way great story about the signed autograph 👍
@@johno30197 so they say . It's likely they were covering it up no one knows completely
@@Tomboyy9818 it's actually Ebsen with a b.
There are a few costuming photos with Buddy modeling the Tin Woodsman costume. Here's a link of one of those photos with a recording of Buddy singing "If I only Had a Heart" from some of the pre-production work. Interesting stuff:

The man who played Jed Clampet ( Buddy Ebsen) did not play the tin man . He tried out for the part but it went to actor Jack Haley .
I'm 71--and the WIZARD OF OZ has always been my favorite movie. Thanks for your video--and for the respect you showed for the actors and the movie itself. Rick
Still after watching Wizard of Oz for over 50 years the end when Dorothy tells Scarecrow she’ll miss him most of all with the violin playing no place like home softly it gets me teary eyed , thanks again
Hollywood has history and full of dark history that everyone forgets and doesn't want to mention but Grimm is the greatest to shine a light on that. One love, guys
That goes with any city!
I learned something new because I didn't realize that the actors who played Aunt Em and Uncle Henry were in the Great Mausoleum. Michael Jackson is in the Great Mausoleum and he was in the The Wiz. What a coincidence. I love this movie so much. I appreciate you making this video.
Ive LOVED the Wizard of Oz since I was about 10 years old. The movie is a classic and will never age. The cast will live on forever in this beautifully done film for generations, my kids love it just as much as me.
Excellent video & well done here. To all the viewers here, please let the ads run in full as this helps fund these guys. TY
My kids and grandkids love this movie also. As a matter of fact the first time my two granddaughters saw it they had to watch it several times on the weekends they came to visit. For atleast 6 months. Which was fine with me. I was tired of watching the Grinch movie. Don't get me wrong, good movie. But you can only watch the same movie so many times. 😂
If you ever get a chance to go to Grand Rapids Minnesota and go to the Judy Garland Museum. It’s Amazing
Here we are in 2023, the Wizard of Oz is still beloved these days 👠💐🌄
they destroyed judy garland. from her parents to MGM to just everyone. She had no chance. R.I.P. Go read the story She was Doomed from the beginning and no one paid for anything they did to her
That's exactly right
I didn't know that
@@brianpreston8483 watch the videos of judy garland. They drugged her, touched her and so much more. They fed her pills. It's crazy what they did to her
@@edwinwelch1272 I am doing that right now, thank you
@@brianpreston8483 welcome. Your going to look at the wizard of oz movie different now once you learn everything.
I can't believe you haven't seen One of the Great Movies of all time. "Gone WIth the Wind" WOW Talk about a Classic.
I haven't either and don't care to.
No got slaves right lol
Ahh those joint custody memories. I have a few every other weekend memories of my own.
I first fell in love with special effects when I saw the Wizard of OZ at four years old and the Winkie staff blade was the inspiration that started my wicked art style, thank you L Frank Baum for changing my life and so many others.
Fell*
You HAVE to see Gone With the Wind!! There’s also soooo much history made when making this moving. It would be a great video for u to make! Research Hattie McDaniel and the Academy awards ceremony. She accepted the award in a no blacks hotel. And read about how Clark Gable threatened to boycott the movie premiere so that McDaniel could attend. It’s a great movie for reflection and history of behind the scenes.
I have a first edition of Gone With the Wind with colorized pictures in it I need to read this book ,since I am from the deep south.
My all time favorite movie. I always loved the fact Judy I were born on June 10. I also named my children Emily and Henry after the movie. Absolutely love your channel.
Buddy Ebsen ( Jed Clampett on The Beverly Hillbillies) was the Tin Man, but nearly died as a result of the silver paint. The role then went to Jack Haley. Great tour...as always.❤️
Just rewatched this movie with my kids, my youngest first time. One of my favorite movies!
Bela Lugosi deserves a Dracula statue. Make it happen Hollywood.
Thank-you for this I am 55 years old now and loved watching this movie As a child and love it still Rest in peace to all the actors who gave us this wonderful movie to enjoy throughout the rest of our lives❤
I'm glad you're familiar with the sequel Return To OZ. I love the original Wizard of OZ, but Return to OZ is my favorite. I first saw it on TV when I was little. I like how it has a much darker tone to it. Plus the Wheelers creeped me out. And you have Princess Mombi with her interchangeable heads, which was creepy as well. I recently got Return to OZ on DVD as a Christmas gift.
Wizard is my favourite film of all time and can't remember how many times I've watched it. Judy had an amazing voice and such a tragic life. Buddy Ebsen was the actor who was the original Tin man. Have a great 2022.
I'm not gonna lie, The Toto memorial broke my heart. I'm very sad to hear Totos final resting place was destroyed.
Thanks to L. Frank Baum and all who were casted as the Wizard of OZ characters made a movie that will last a lifetime. If the actors & actresses were still around today, I would say "Thank you to making memories for all generations to see. Great video, I love anything evolving the Wizard of OZ.
The 2nd actor to play the Tin Man was Buddy Ebsen, who also played Jed Clampett in the Beverly Hillbillies.
Thank you, Michael and Jessica for taking us to the sites of the actors of one of my favorite films! Keep up the great work, Happy Halloween! Edit-Holy smokes, just realized that the Baums are at the same site of one of my favorite musicians, Michael Jackson. Dang. RIP to all the great people who have entertained us.
Normally on Christmas period tv transmit the movie! Merry Christmas and happy holidays guys! ❄️🎄🎅🏼☃️
I'm eternally thankful I was presented THE WIZARD OF OZ in 1983 I was 3 years old and immediately fell in love with the movie. It's so relaxing to watch on a rainy day. Lights dimmed.
Awesome video Grimm 👍
Hello from Guadalajara Mexico 🇲🇽
Thank you for the time, respect, and care you put into this video.
Wizard of Oz is my all-time favorite movie - Never get tired of watching it. Thank you so much for doing these videos... Maybe do one for Gone with the Wind
They came out the same year 1939
I do recommend watching Gone with the Wind at least once. Its view of history is of course problematic (especially if you watch it immediately after Django Unchained!) but it is a really magnificent experience, in terms of cinematography, acting, and music. It also contains excellent performances by some of the leading black actors of the time.
My husbands grandmother is buried at Holy Cross and her funeral was in that mausoleum that the scarecrow is in ❤️ I never knew that at the time I wish I would have so I could have looked for him! So cool! I’m a new viewer from Ohio and have been watching your videos for the past two nights ☺️ keep them coming!
I watch this movie every time it comes on. If I remember correctly this was the first movie that I ever watch
You should do an episode on the locations of the classic Spielberg movie from 71 "Duel"
I never knew that the film was so old
You are so great at what you do! Thanks for the awesome videos!! Oh, and the first tin man was Buddy Ebsen who played Jed Clampett on The Beverly Hillbillies.
Yep! and also from the St. Louis Area. Well, right across the river in Belleville IL.
Yes also Barnaby Jones.
Why would you miss out on Gone With the Wind? It’s a classic yes it’s a bit long but you could watch it in multiple sittings. I love it.
Fantastic video, as always. One of my guilty pleasures from childhood is Grease 2. It wasnt until a few years ago that I found out Lorna Luft, who plays Pink Lady "Paulette", was Judy Garland's daughter. Talented family!
I enjoy that movie too !! it was so different that Grease #1 ..but really fun to watch
@@onwednesdayswewearpink2761 Always love hearing there are others out there! :)
I had a cairn terrier as a child, from age 4-12, and I loved that I had my very own Toto lookalike!
Thanks you guys for doing this. Some people will never be able to see some of these things and places in person! Like me lol I appreciate you guys very much!! 💜
Toto was my favorite character in the Wizard of Oz .
RIP All actors and actresses from The Wizard of Oz.
I’ve always been curious about the resting places for celebs of Hollywood’s Golden Age. Many unique people like you have traveled the country to find these celebrities’ final resting place, so Wizard of Oz cast members and writers forever left their mark in a timeless film. Thanks for showing this. It influenced me to travel to these places to learn more of what made them so significant in film history.
A couple of facts for both people is that my other favorite movie with Judy Garland is Meet Me In St. Louis. This fact is also important for them to know and that fact that the actress who played Dorothy Gale wasn't named Judy Garland. Instead her real name was Francis Gumm. It's on the DVD of the movie if you look at the making of the movie.
Popcorn on the stove is the BEST. I saw Fiddler On The Roof at the theater with my father. I think of him when I watch it.
So wonderfully done. I lived in Southern California as a kid way before you were born, (and we met Lucy and Desi as well as Jay North who played Dennis the Menace at that time) and never got back there until a couple of years ago. I went to Westwood to see Marilyn and everyone else and made it to Hollywood Forever and saw Judy. I had an extremely abused childhood and young life and the old movies, especially the old black and whites, were my escape and those people became like God's to me. I was really touched by what you just said about this is what you and Jessica live for, because I am the same way, except I didn't follow my heart and move to Los Angeles years ago like I should have. After not having been there for so many years, when I went a couple of years ago I thought maybe I would be disappointed. Nope. On the contrary, it immediately felt like home to me ( there's no place like home...👠👠) and I get an energy and a spiritual feeling there that I get nowhere else. I've lived in South Florida now for over 30 years and while it's not terrible, I really wish I was in Los Angeles, with its problems and all. But I'm 66 now on a limited retirement and could never afford it. But it remains where my heart is and I was never happier than I was when I visited a couple of years ago. I'm happy you guys are able to live your dream.
Probably watched this movie 5 times over the last week been watching since a kid in the 60s it never gets old , it’s funny though it wasn’t until recently that I noticed Toto had a little bed that looks like a covered wagon with his name across the front it’s really noticeable when Dorothy gets bonked in the head by the window in her room during the twister , thanks again hope you two are having a wonderful Christmas holiday season
That was buddy ebsen. Who was supposed to play the tin man. The metal made him sick.
Buddy Ebsen is the one who got sick from the Tin Man makeup. This was a fantastic video, thank you!
The Awesomeness that Is Grimmlife Collective Continues! ✊😎👊🍁♈🍁
Truly a classic film for all ages, for all the world, and should be mandatory viewing for all film makers... I loved your memorial GLA episode of this historic landmark film-- keep up the great work, Grimms.... :^)"""""""
Buddy Ebsen was supposed to be the Tin Man. The paint contained latex which is what caused his allergic reaction.
Next time Jessica and you should go back to visit St. Louis and continue this with Mickey Carroll grave site!
Wow. Incredible. I’ve always regarded The Wizard of Oz as the greatest horror movie of all time. I say that based on the fact that the first time I ever became aware of my own mortality was when I was a small child and saw the hour glass that was presented to Dorothy by the witch. I began to cry hysterically and when my mother asked me what was wrong I could not articulate that at that moment I realized one day I would die. Years later in my early twenties I began to dabble in the occult and when I just happened to watch it again the Wizard behind the curtain who was nothing but an old man took on a very deep meaning in that moment of my life and I immediately abandoned my practices. The message was clear. I regard this movie personally as the most Magickal, greatest films of my life. All Hail Dorothy!!!
Have you seen the original silent Wizard? Talk about frightening.
This movie is my childhood as well like many of us here and has a special place in our hearts. Thank you for this, brings back a lot of good memories.
You should visit the birthplace of Judy Garland in Grand Rapids MN
One of my all time favorite movies First saw it in a movie theater when I was a child I was I. Awe. I'm now sixty years old I've watched this movie many many times throughout my life
The Wizard of Oz will forever remain 1 of my all time favorite movies. My Mom has a huge collection of memorabilia from the movie and it’s one the first movies I ever watched as a kid.
Jerry lived a long life! 🌈🍭 Judy Garland so young, so sad, with the overdoses ...I don’t know how I missed this video, I love that you guys love what you do. Thank you for doing this for us! As usual! HAPPY HALLOWEEN from Orlando on a Friday night, I’m binging your videos I’ve missed!🎃🎃
Jerry Maron really had lived a long life. 98 only 2 years we would have been a century years old. Mad respect to him
Buddy Ebsen was the one cast as the Tin Man who got sick. He went on to play Jed Clampett in The Beverly Hillbillies and Barnaby Jones.
Wizard of Oz is my. favorite. As a child I would have dreams of living in oz. Thank You💗
It’s crazy people want to be buried in a mail slot. Thank you for sharing this though it’s wonderful
Wow the production value on this video was top tier. Very impressive. The music, the innovative camera angles, the mood, haunting music, creeping camera and overall aesthetic was seamlessly interwoven and perfectly complimented one another. You guys have grown so much. Keep it up. Love you both.
PS: I would love to know the music that was used as the recurring theme played throughout the video.
"The Witch Trials" by Peter Gundry
It is so sad that this movie was what would eventually take judy garlands life during this movie is where she was put on to all kinds of drugs what a shame she was so loved and is missed every day and was so talented
My fav film i watch this film every week since age 6 ..im 49 now and never get bored with the wizard of Oz im gunna count up how Many Times i seen IT i watch IT on boxing day easter and every week too xx thanks for this i might have to visit here for vaction xx
Buddy Ebsen was the original scarecrow that swapped rolls with Ray Bolger and got sick from the silver makeup
I just saw it to show it to my daughter that is 17 and she was blown away by the special effects in the movie especially for the time, ofcourse it's been masterized but still it's a work of art👌🤩
Masterized lol
"Allot of ground to cover " lol!! I see what you did there! 😂
What a great memory with your dad and sis ... cherish
The actor to first try the role as the the Tinman was Buddy Ebsen. He later starred as Jed Clampett in the CBS television sitcom The Beverly Hillbillies. You welcome Grimm.
You are so good at what you do.You should have your own show on tv.I'm glad to have discovered you,such professionalism! Thank you for all your hard work and I loved The Wizard of Oz.!!
Thank you for the kind words Brenda. So happy you found us
Good way to start this day! 😎🤘
The wife and I are big Wizard of Oz fans and we've made plans to see Judy Garland's grave sometime at Hollywood Forever. I remember hearing that Judy wanted to be buried on the West Coast, not the East, so she got her wish.
Your background music gives me a “Flowers in the Attic” type of creepy vibe. I love it!
this was my favorite video of yours by far!.. ive been a big fan or " ozmapolitan" for life.. first color movie i think... jerry maren lives to almost 100 and poor judy garland dies young at 47....good job sir and i for one appreciate this 🤟🏻👍🏻👍🏻
Without this video, I would have never have been able to visit all those places. Thank you so much.
I feel the same way. 💯
My old elementary school Cerritos is located across the street from the entrance of Forest Lawn Glendale. While in Kindergarten 1964 our class walked across the street with our teacher to look at the pond, fountain, and birds there. Over the years, 1964-1970, while playing on the playground we would see very long funeral precessions driving by. Our teachers would tell us it was a famous actor or actress that passed away. This is one of the oldest cemeteries of the stars in Los Angeles county. Years later as an adult, I would go back and look and be in awe of the beautiful art located in and around there. As a teenager in the 70s, I went with my parents to a Little People's golf tournament hosted by Billy Barty and met many of the actors who played the Munchkins. Fun memories. My family played with one of the descendants of Terry AKA Toto. While in the back area of the Spokane Arena we had the Ice Capades of the Wizard of OZ in the late 1990s and the Shriners like myself would entertain the kids as they came in to be seated. Where I dressed to be in an animal costume, a little Carrien terrier comes running into our dressing room. We all said that sure looks like Toto. The owners come in and retrieve the dog. They told us he was a direct descendent of the dog who did play Toto. My kids were there at that time and got to pet him. A sweet dog who was looking for friendship and attention.
I'm colorblind. I never really knew it until I joined the Army and failed my eye exam. Looking back when I was watching TWOO as a kid I never knew the scene turned to color until I told about it. It looked " different " to me but all I see is more complex greys. Oh well.
This was a wonderful tribute to The Land Of Oz actors/actresses. Judy Garland had the roughest life of all. Her mother was a ruthless stage mother and had Judy working at the tender age of 2 or 3. Such a beautiful young lady, her story is a tragedy!
Buddy Epson was slatted to play the tin man. I've seen rare footage of him playing the role. For as prominate actor as he was, he didn't fit the role of the tin man well. Jack Hailey was a much better choice. Hailey facial type because he was emotional was a better choice, than Buddy Epson's rather stern expressions. It's sad Toto's original grave was destroyed. However, SHE (YES, Toto was a female Cairn Terrier), and a smart little dog as well.
Mike, you and Jessica should see Victor Flemming's other opus! Gone With The Wind is a classic and historic film. It happens to be my favorite book/film. Clark Gable is unforgettable as are Olivia DeHaviland. Your all about history (rather you dislike slavery or not), it isn't just about that one element! Does it glamorize the old south, not really. It's a movie about ALL the struggles of that time. Also the struggle of a young woman who goes to any length to keep her beloved home Tara! Funny people don't have a problem with Dorathy Gale saying "There's no place like home" , but have an issue with Scarlett O'Hara saying "As God is my witness, I'll never go hungry again!" As she holds up the red Georgia clay of her home Tara. I think this is childish and small minded. Most that criticize the book/film have never read the book or seen the film! Ridiculous!
Jill Gross
Well done Michael
As a dog lover I'm glad little Toto got a mention at the end
You know? I had no desire to watch Gone With The Wind. I finally did. Great movie.
always a good evening when a new grimmvideo is posted :)
What a wonderful video (as usual) but this one was so heartfelt, it was quite a emotional one & the hauntingly beautiful music just added to it all! Thank you my dear friend!!! 🤗 (as others have noted, Buddy Ebsen was supposed to be the Tin Man but was allergic to the makeup)
I am a Wizard of oz fan and I really love Judy Garland i have all her movies the Wizard of Oz was my first time to seeing Judy Garland
Fantastic video! Thank you for sharing with us all! The Wizard of Oz is one of my favorite movies all time!! It is such a timeless classic.
I'm surprised at the condition of some of these grave markers for ones like Jack Haley. Time has aged them to an almost illegible state. I can't imagine why nobody didn't keep them in better condition.
Side note--the first actor cast as the Tinman who was stricken with cancer was named Buddy Ebsen. He went on to play Jed Clampett in tvs "The Beverly Hillbillies".
I had a good friend( girl), and every year for a long time, every May we would watch the Wizard of Oz. Now, it's just me, but I still watch the movie and think about the times when we would watch it together. She got married and moved away, and I never saw her again.
Jerry Maron was one of the nicest people I’ve ever met! In his later life he used to do a lot of appearances and signings and you just couldn’t ask to meet a nicer human being than Jerry. I mean the man would basically do any request a fan of the movie asked. From singing to the camera, to posing with kids dressed as the lollipop guild trio and so on. Just an awesome guy all around. May he R.I.P
Return to Oz is one of my favorite strange nostalgia films to go back and watch. It’s an amazing film especially if one were to partake if ya know what I mean lol. Super weird and totally kind of aimed for an older audience, not sure if that was the director’s intention
I swear, your videos are getting better with every one you add. I love the research and locations. Keep Halloween-ing!
That background music especially the women singing the “ooos” chills
I loved this movie, and the aftermath of the actors just tearjerker.
Great video! It’s nice to see some of the “old Hollywood” as you say. This was my cousins favorite movie as a kid. She passed away from an accidental overdose as well and her favorite song was song was “somewhere over the rainbow”. So I can relate to this video! Thanks again!
This is gonna be a good one
You walking down the hallway..Scene right out of Phantasm..
The architecture and the statues of these graveyards are so beautiful and the edited music makes it so ethereal I don’t think I’d ever leave
I'm a new subber. Love the vids yall. Was just wondering if you ever get teary eyed doing these cemetery tours... my eyes started messing with me during the Toto part. Anyways, keep up these awesome videos. 🔥
The dog was the highest paid in movie
your videos are my comfort food for my mind. i love these. wish i had your life!
I watched Wizard of Oz every years during Thanksgiving and Christmas. And I love that movie though, because it's Brilliant and Amazing.
My niece when she was a child in the 1990s met Jerry from the lollipop gild. It was at a yearly parade for the wizard of oz in Syracuse NY. The wizard was her favorite movie, she got married in ruby slippers.
Gone With the Wind is an amazing movie. I never thought I would like it but I watched it about 4 years ago and it turns out the movie is incredible! A must watch. It's a long one but worth the watch. Just saying...
