‘The Wizard of Oz’ Cut a Weird Musical Number That Cost Nearly $2 Million

If there's one film destined to forever stand the test of time, it's the 1939 classic, The Wizard of Oz. Based on L. Frank Baum's beloved novel, the musical extravaganza is the ultimate classic. From its larger-than-life sets, to its iconic characters and, of course, its beautiful story, the film has garnered an adoring fan base and a slew of spin-offs, including Wicked, which has become a long beloved classic itself. Perhaps the film's most memorable element is its iconic score. After all, "Over the Rainbow" is easily the signature song of Dorothy Gale herself, Judy Garland. It seems impossible not to love each and every song in the film. However, there were a few songs that didn't make the final cut, and, in the case of one number, it was the right decision.
