One of the earliest adaptations of L Frank Baum's compelling children's book, it was directed by and starred Larry Semon, one of his few feature length films. Its revival however owes much to the presence of Oliver Hardy in the role of a farmhand/tin woodsman, four years before he was linked with Stan Laurel. Whilst the story of 'The Wizard of Oz' has become universally popular, thanks in large measure to the success of the 1939 film, this version offers an interesting variation on the theme - there's no witch!
