The Wizard of Oz was one of the absolute most dangerous films ever made. OP is there a good essay about the history of this? It's a REALLY fascinating story and a lot of people who watch and enjoy movies would probably be absorbed into reading it.

Just goes to show you Hollywood was always a messed up place. It was indifferent to people back then, it is indifferent to people now.
On a slightly related topic, "Babylon" was too much the same self loathing and despair from Hollywood; it ultimately bombed, despite being a technically great movie, because everyone is sick and tired of seeing Hollywood bemoaning that this messed up world is never going to change.
I hope they will be proven wrong after the strike.
