The thumbnail is misleading the Broadway Wiz and the Movie Wiz are not the same 🧐

I definitely prefer the film version more.
George seems like he's not trying to give the film no conversation or props here. Theater people are a trip.
The film version was ground breaking no matter what your feelings are about it. He's certainly trying to avoid saying anything about it each time they bring it up.
