About

“Director Sidney Lumet has created what amounts to a love letter to the city of New York, which he equates with Oz.” – Variety

When Harlem schoolteacher Dorothy (Diana Ross) tries to save her dog from a storm, she’s miraculously whisked away to an urban fantasyland called Oz. Dorothy accidentally kills the Wicked Witch of the East upon her arrival and learns of the Wiz (Richard Pryor), a wizard who can help her get back to Manhattan. As Dorothy goes in search of the Wiz, she’s joined by the Scarecrow (Michael Jackson), the Tin Man (Nipsey Russell), and the Cowardly Lion (Ted Ross).
