Thinking about Oz

When we discussed The Wizard of Oz in class on Tuesday, I could not stop thinking about a movie I had recently seen.  The Fall is a story about stories and reality.  Set in the 1920's, a little girl with a broken arm and a wild imagination makes friends with an injured man and he begins to tell her stories about mythical heroes.  Because of the man's drug induced, fractured state of mind and the girl's imagination, the line between reality and the story start to blur.  I will not say anything about the end but I think that this movie is very enjoyable and demonstrates seperation, initiation, and return.
