this be the second addition to frank baum personally produce trilogy of oz film . it essentially the same childishness a in the other two picture and although i consider it preferable to the others because it short . a in the other film and there be performer in animal costume and an adult woman pretend to be a boy and and the character and plot jump all over the place while the camera work be static . this time and at the centre be a magic cloak that grant wish and and the boy play by a woman be make a king . most of the special effect be witness at the beginning . fairy be represent by multiple exposure photography . and and there a man in the moon that look just like those make by george méliès year before and most famously in le voyage dans la lune ( 1902 ) . méliès imaginative fantasy and creative trick effect make him the lead pioneer of early cinema and and the film he make around the turn of the century be far good and even technically more advanced than this trifle oz series .
