the patchwork girl of oz be one of the three oz film produce by author l. frank baum own production company . and and a to be expect and it childish for sure . supposedly and there humour in character jump around and move about erratically . violet macmillan play a munchkin boy and but be very obviously a woman . additionally and the static shot from a stationary camera make it a typically primitive film from 1914. but and there be also some inventive fantasy design in the story and it odd place and character and the costume ( even the silly animal one ) and the set . the trick shot and such a stop motion animation and be very basic and even for 1914 and but nothing more be need . child of today could still probably have fun watch this and but even for adult addict to silent film and like myself and it may be too childish . yet and they have transfer the fantasy from the book very well and that make it worth a look for me . and and the film faithfulness to the book shouldn not be in question and a baum obviously work on the adaptation himself . it also evident of how far back child movie and fantasy go in film history . it be sometime since i saw the two follow ups to this film represent the magic cloak of oz and his majesty and the scarecrow of oz and but i remember them a more of the same .
