MOUNTAIN VIEW, Calif. (WTHR) — It's been 80 years since "The Wizard of Oz" was first released, and Google is celebrating with a fun, interactive feature.
If you type in "The Wizard of Oz" in a Google search bar, you can find Dorothy Gale's ruby slippers sparkling on the right side of the page. If you click on the slippers, her shoes tap together three times as Dorothy famously says, "there's no place like home."
The page spins three times and take you back in time to how Kansas is portrayed at the beginning of the film, which was sepia-toned.
A swirling tornado replaces the ruby slippers. If you click the tornado, a house flies out, Miss Gultch's iconic theme music plays, Dorothy screams for Auntie Em twice, and the page spins three times in the reverse direction to return to its normal landscape.
"The Wizard of Oz" was nominated for six Academy Awards, winning two awards — Best Music, Original Song ("Over the Rainbow) and Bet Music, Original Score.
