The Wizard of Oz is like reading Sleeping Beauty, a novel for kids.
The book is really more child psychology (IMO).
Buddhist readers interested in this novel were also interested in Awakeyning (A-way-kin-ning).
The Buddhist practitioners practiced paths to enlightenment, and the Awaken "one".
The 'maytrix / maitrix' or "Matrix" became a 'novel' film that echo'd The Wizard of Oz...if The Wizard of Oz updated, morphin into something like a modern electronic novel (or video-fantasy).
The Teacher, known as Neo in the Matrix, seems connected to the mythical Buddha, in a out-of-the-box way. Keanu Reeves played the Buddha in a earlier film, made years before. In this film, he is called "Neo" (or the O-N-E a re-arrangment of N-E-O).
In the Matrix [Maitrix], the first series is action-oriented and mysterious.
The sequel [The Maitrix: Part II] touches upon the subject of transferals. The setting is french, and our heros are found in a cave.
IMO, the final version is a failure. The story moves from state-of-the-Art-sophistication, enhanced contrast and enhanced special effects...to bulky grey parts, a large dim-like cave, away from under-city train stations with trains without passengers. The caves are populated with G.I. Jane-type females who seem to (like the character Trinity) enjoy playing video-games. In the final story, Neo's character is also changed.
In My Opinion, I believe the story-writer of this futuristic OZ program is a brown woman called the Oracle. She is la-i-cah / like the story teller. Near the end of the third Maitrix film, the camera zooms in on the Oracle. She appears to be laying asleep in the rain...in a brown (or dark brown) dress.
This technique uses a 'claimatic triangle'.
The drama in this type of psychological story occurs when the hero-dreamer is closest to waiking/waking...then the battle of Maya (symbolic of Chos-Kos) grows. This is a special way to build tension, which should be at it's most dramatic point when the dream ends.
