The Wizard of Oz (1939)

The Wizard of Oz does not explicitly depict LGBTQ+ characters or themes within its narrative. While the film has developed a significant cultural following within the LGBTQ+ community, this is an external association rather than an inherent part of the film's content.

The Wizard of Oz does not feature any identifiable transsexual characters or themes. Its narrative and character arcs are entirely unrelated to transgender identity, resulting in no portrayal to evaluate.

The film features several prominent female characters, including Dorothy, Glinda the Good Witch, and the Wicked Witch of the West. While these characters engage in magical conflicts and face various challenges, none are depicted defeating male opponents in direct physical combat using skill, strength, or martial arts.

The 1939 film adaptation of L. Frank Baum's novel maintains the established genders for all major characters, including Dorothy, the Scarecrow, the Tin Woodman, the Cowardly Lion, and the Wizard himself. No character canonically established as one gender in the source material is portrayed as a different gender in the movie.

All major characters in The Wizard of Oz (1939) were portrayed by actors whose race aligns with the established depictions from L. Frank Baum's original novels and prior interpretations. No character canonically established as one race was portrayed as a different race.
