Yup. Remember the Flying Monkey? There was actually a theme going on there... Now, if anyone can tell me how the Wizard of Oz relates to the U.S. Federal Reserve, I'd love a copy. Apparently, everything in the movie is a direct political commentary on American economics at the time it was made. Oz actually stood for ounce - related to either the gold standard or the silver standard - I can't remember which.

Wizard of Oz - I seem to remember how a bunch of us back in college (mid-70's) came up with an interpretation of the Wizard of Oz as a metaphor for a young woman losing her virginity.
anyway, just a vague memory, but as people say, if you remember the '70s , you weren't there.
