"Surrender Dorothy" is a famous special effect used in the movie ''The Wizard of Oz'', which later attained local fame as a graffito in the Washington, D.C. metropolitan area. ==Appearance in the movie== The first appearance of the phrase is in the famous 1939 version of ''The Wizard of Oz'' (it is not in the novel or any previous adaptations). In the scene, Dorothy Gale (Judy Garland) has reached the Emerald City with her companions The Scarecrow (Ray Bolger), Tin Woodsman (Jack Haley) and Cowardly Lion (Bert Lahr), whereupon they are treated to the hospitality and technological comforts of the fantastic city. As they leave the "Wash & Brush Up Co.", the Wicked Witch of the West (Margaret Hamilton) appears in the sky riding her broomstick, skywriting the words "SURRENDER DOROTHY". The terrified townspeople of the Emerald City - and the four intrepid adventurers - respond by rushing to the chamber where the Wizard of Oz himself (Frank Morgan) resides, only to be turned away by a Majordomo (also played by Frank Morgan) based loosely on the Soldier with the Green Whiskers. The special effect was achieved by using a hypodermic needle, spreading black ink across the bottom of a glass tank filled with tinted water.〔(Wizard of Oz - Frequently Asked Questions - The Movie - Production and Crew )〕 The phrase was also later featured in Martin Scorsese's 1985 film ''After Hours''. In the film, Marcy (Rosanna Arquette) relates that her former husband would scream the phrase during intercourse.〔(After Hours (1985) - Memorable quotes )〕 Originally, there was a full message written out by the Witch, seen only in the first 120-minute test screening. The full message read "SURRENDER DOROTHY OR DIE --W W W". 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Surrender Dorothy」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
