I usually post bonus videos on Sundays but this one's very Christmas-themed so I wanted to get it out before the holidays pass by! So please enjoy a bonus-bonus video about The Judy Garland Christmas Special, one of the greatest Christmas specials ever made: Incredibly charming, a little bit sloppy, starring very talented folks ... and of course there's a touch of behind the scenes drama. The full package! In this week's bonus video, we're going behind the scenes of one of my very favorite Xmas specials.
And! There's also some more to say about The Wizard of Oz. Thank you to everybody who let me know that I forgot to mention Zardoz in the last bonus video about weird Wizard of Oz adaptations, so we're going to dive in to Sean Connery's very bizarre followup to the James Bond films, and why I think Zardoz accidentally has something surprisingly timely to say about how artificial intelligence is plaguing our lives these days.
