4. The Wizard of Oz
Year: 1939
Starring: Judy Garland, Frank Morgan, and Ray Bolger
Recommended by: James W. Dean Jr., dean of the University of North Carolina's Kenan-Flager Business School
This famous classic showcases Industrial Age perfection in the Emerald City. Quote: "Snip, snip here, snip, snip there." It is intriguing that these exact production methods were used only a few years later to build tanks and airplanes for World War II, and in many American industries for decades afterward. Another great link between this film, warfare, and business is the Cowardly Lion's speech on courage, which concludes: "What makes the Hottentot so hot? What puts the 'ape' in apricot? What have they got that I ain't got?"
