Did the director of The Wizard of Oz's son hang himself from a tree in the scene where the trees throw apples at Dorothy because he didn't get the part as a Scarecrow?

No, there have been reports of about seven different people hanging themselves in this scene. None of them are true. Supposedly you can see it in the scene of the movie. If the director's son was hanging in the background, you can be sure the director would remember to make sure to take out the scene. If you go and watch it frame by frame and look very closely you still will not see anyone hanging anywhere in the background.

What did the Scarecrow need in The Wizard of Oz?
The Scarecrow wanted the Wizard to give him a brain. Ironically, the Wizard was a humbug, and made a show of giving the Scarecrow what the Scarecrow already had. For the Scarecrow had reacted to many situations, on the way to the Emerald Palace of the Wizard of Oz, in ways that showed that he already had a brain. In the way of a humorous example, Dorothy irritated a tree by picking an apple off the branch instead of picking it up from the ground. The Scarecrow explained that the little girl didn't like green worms in her apples. Exactly!
What does the Scarecrow state at the end of 'The Wizard of Oz'?
The Scarecrow's song in the beloved 1939 film version of 'The Wizard of Oz' is sung by Dorothy Gale and the Scarecrow. It occurs not too long after the meeting of the two subsequent friends. It deals with the Scarecrow's wish to have the brain that he unknowingly has already. The words are the following: I could while away the hours,/Conferring' with the flowers,/Consultin' with the rain./And my head I'd be scratchin'/While my thoughts were busy hatchin'/If I only had a brain./I'd unravel every riddle/For any individ'le/In trouble or in pain./ Dorothy sings, 'With the thoughts you'll be thinkin'/You could be another Lincoln/If you only had a brain'. The Scarecrow then sings, 'Oh, I could tell you why/The ocean's near the shore/I could think of things I never thunk before,/And then Id sit -- and think some more./I would not be just a nuffin'/My head all full of stuffin'/My heart all full of pain./I would dance and be merry...'.
Is Fiyero the Scarecrow in The Wizard of Oz?
No. The Scarecrow is only a scarecrow. In the book Wicked, Elphaba believes her lover Fiyero has disguised himself as a scarecrow until she sees him empty the straw from his clothing. In the play Wicked, however, Fiyero does become the Scarecrow, but this is the only version where he is anything other than a stuffed old suit.
Which five creatures travel together down the Yellow Brick Road in 'The Wizard of Oz'?
A dog, a human being, a lion, a scarecrow and a tinman are the five creatures that travel together down the Yellow Brick Road in the original 1900 book edition and the beloved 1939 film version of "The Wizard of Oz."Specifically, the dog is called Toto and is the pet of Dorothy Gale of Kansas. The lion remains nameless and is a self-described coward in search of courage fit for the King of Beasts. The scarecrow believes that he lacks a brain even though one never would guess it from his resourcefulness. The tinman considers himself heartless even though he exudes compassion, love and personal warmth.
What are facts about the Lion in 'The Wizard of Oz'?
That he is as brave and wise as he is low in self-esteemis an interesting fact about the Lion in "The Wizard of Oz."Specifically, the Lion believes himself to be cowardly because he avoids conflict. But he proves his courage in defending Dorothy, her pet dog Toto and his colleagues the Scarecrow and the Tin Woodman. It turns out that he is courageous instead of cowardly, diplomatic and discriminating in picking fights and humble instead of egotistical.
