Reviews
It's good that the Scarecrow is the first traveling companion she meets; Michael Jackson fills the role with humor and warmth.
Roger Ebert, Chicago Sun-Times
Sidney Lumet's spectacular, joyous production of The Wiz generates a mood of wonder and sentimental rapture recalling the arrival of the Mother Ship in Close Encounters of the Third Kind.
