Packet 1: Tossup 12

A character originally from this film urges “Don’t turn away from love” in an homage by a director who claimed (15[1])“There is not a day that goes by that I don’t think about” (15[1])this film. The designer Adrian created over 100 (-5[1])costumes for a scene (15[1])in which this film abruptly goes silent before the camera pushes through a door to a pond of huge lily (15[1])pads. A character originally from this film floats above Sailor as he lies in the road in (*) Wild (10[1])at Heart, one of many (10[1])allusions to this film by David (10[1])Lynch. (10[1])In this film, castle guards with (10[1])spears chant (10[2])“O-Ee-Yah! (10[3])Ee-Oh-Ah!” (10[1])in the (10[2])“March of the Winkies.” (10[3])In (10[1])the (10[1])so-called (10[2])“greatest (10[2])year (10[1])in film history,” both Gone (10[1])with the Wind and this (10[1])film (10[2])were directed by Victor Fleming. (10[3])For 10 points, a sepia tornado gives way (10[1])to (10[3])Technicolor (10[1])in what 1939 (10[2])film that features a yellow brick road? ■END■
