Lynch/ Oz (Janus Contemporaries)

For maverick moviemaker David Lynch, "The Wizard of Oz" had undeniable impact from the first time he watched it as a child--and imagery, themes and motifs from the 1939 classic would appear over and over again in his work through the decades. Film-on-film documentarian Alexandre Philippe offers a six-part look at the inspiration and influence that "Oz" has held for Lynch, with analysis from Amy Nicolson, Rodney Ascher, John Waters, Karyn Kusama, Justin Benson & Aaron Moorhead, and David Lowery. 108 min. Widescreen; Soundtrack: English Dolby Digital 5.1; Subtitles: English (SDH); featurette; theatrical trailer.
