Dorothy's clapping her heels together and saying, "There's no place like home' [in the original book, "Take me home to Aunt Em"], is the climax. For it's the final resolution of the original dilemma: what to do to get back home?
The Shakespearean climax is a high point that's midway through the story. In The Wizard of Oz, midway most likely is Dorothy's interview with the Wizard, and his instructions to bring back the broomstick of the Wicked Witch of the West. But the Shakespearean climax may be seen as actually occurring close to that point, but a bit later, when Dorothy melts the Wicked Witch of the West with a bucket of water.

Is the line 'Don't pay attention to the man behind the curtain' in 'The Wonderful Wizard of Oz'?
No, the line "Don't pay attention to the man behind the curtain" is not in "The Wonderful Wizard of Oz."Specifically, the statement is found in the beloved 1939 film version but not the original 1900 book edition of "The Wizard of Oz." It is made by the Wizard when Toto pulls aside the curtain hiding the humbug magician from his visitors. It is said in a last-ditch effort to keep Dorothy, Toto and their three friends from connecting a little old man with a frightening, disembodied voice.
What is ironic about 'The Wonderful Wizard of Oz'?
Every character has a characteristic they want. The scarecrow wants a brain, the tin woodman wants a heart, the lion wanted courage. The scarecrow wanted brains to think intelligent thoughts while he comes up with all the ideas to get across obstacles. The tin woodman wants a heart to feel emotions but he already does. He cries every time someone wants to step on a bug. He also weeps when the Lion offers to kill something for Dorothy to eat. The lion wants courage to be well... courageous. He wants to be courageous but he already is by jumping across a deep ditch 6 times and scare off beasts with tiger heads and bear bodies.
Why is the movie the Wizard of Oz so scary?
The Cowardly Lion was afraid of everything, because he thought himself lacking in courage. Ironically, he showed himself to be quite courageous. For he leaped across a deep, wide ditch three times, in order to get Dorothy and her pet dog Toto, the Tin Woodman, and the Scarecrow safely on track to the Yellow Brick Road. And he scared the enslaved but ferocious Winkies away from attacking and killing him and his four friends.
What is the conflict of the movie wizard of oz?
Dorothy wants to go home. she follows the yellow brick road that will lead her to the wizard of oz. on the way, she meets the scarecrow, tin man and a lion. they travel together to find the wizard of oz.the wizard tells them he will grant them their wishes if they kill the witch of the west. when they did, the wizard gave all the fellows all their wishes, but he says Dorothy's wish is impossibe. but of course Dorothy geta to go home with the help of her magical shoes she got when she arrived and her house landed on an evil witch. So the conflict is Dorothy vs the witch of the west ***EDIT*** Are you talking about Dorothy's conflict in the film version or in the book, as there could be differences. I read the book, but it has been a VERY long time, so I don't really recall much of it. I've watched the movie almost religiously since I was a kid, though, SO the conflict... I'm afraid I have to disagree with the first answer. The real conflict is not that between Dorothy and the Wicked Witch, but of Dorothy discovering that the grass isn't always greener on the other side of the rainbow. Her idea that somewhere far away from the home she is used to (which is portrayed as plain, drab, and altogether boring, where her flights of fancy aren't appreciated, and she seems to always be in some sort of trouble with her aunt or Miss Gulch)- would be much better than staying where she is. However, once she finds herself in Oz, Dorothy lands herself in the worst trouble she has ever been in and needs to find a way home. The thing she faces is that she must learn that there really is no place like home before she can actually return to Kansas. She needs smarts, heart, and courage (taking the form of her three friends, the Scarecrow, Tin Man, and Lion) in order to get there. (Also, in the film, the Man Behind the Curtain- or the Wizard- posing as the Great and Terrible Oz DOES offer Dorothy a way home in his balloon. However, it takes off without her due to a mishap, leaving Dorothy stranded. This is when Glinda reappears and tells Dorothy she has had the power to return home the entire time because the slippers she wears have the magical ability to send her back to Kansas. All she has to do is click her heels 3 times and say "there's no place like home" )
