Seriously. Now the thought of Diana Rigg being giddy over him makes me giggle, but at the time it seemed perfectly reasonable (possibly because in this movie he looks a bit like Roland Orzabal of Tears for Fears, and I had a huge crush on Roland). I've always like Tim Curry anyway, but he's so fun in this movie. I really need to dig out my copy, I think. It's been too long since I've watched it. So much fun!
The part of Return to Oz that bothered my sister and I was Dorothy being treated like a lunatic in the beginning. Yeah, she'd taken to telling bizarre stories about tin men and flying monkeys and whatever, but still. That was harsh. The rest I don't really remember- I saw it when it first came out, and never again. Was there some sort of big killer robot-statue thingy like in Labyrinth? I should rent it, I guess. Relive the childhood trauma.
