Fun Movie Facts

The Wizard of Oz…with an emphasis here, placed upon the word, “OZ.”

OZ is the abbreviation for “ounce.” An ounce is a measured unit of mass, weight or volume. An ounce of gold. An ounce of silver.

In the movie, The Wizard Of Oz, the yellow brick road Dorothy travels is representative of gold. Dorothy’s silver slippers represent silver. Gold and silver are measured in ounces.

Hence, OZ. The Wizard of Oz.
