This relentless pursuit adds to the depth of her cruelty, as she is willing to harm others to achieve her goals. One of the most iconic acts of cruelty by the witch is when she sets the scarecrow on fire. This act not only showcases the witch's maliciousness but also highlights her determination to eliminate anything that stands in her way. Despite the scarecrow's pleas for help, the witch continues to burn him, showcasing her lack of compassion or mercy. In the end, it is the witch's cruel nature that leads to her downfall. Dorothy's courage and resourcefulness ultimately prevail, and she successfully defeats and kills the witch. This victory not only saves Dorothy and her friends but also liberates the inhabitants of Oz from the witch's reign of terror.

Her actions and behavior highlight the lengths some individuals will go to for power and control. Ultimately, it is the triumphant defeat of the cruel witch that allows the story to end on a hopeful and victorious note..
Reviews for "The Cruel Witch Socks: A Feminist Interpretation of Power and Identity in The Wizard of Oz"
1. Samantha - 2/5 stars
I was really excited to watch "Cruel Witch Socks the Wizard of Oz" as a fan of the original movie, but I was ultimately disappointed. The storyline felt disjointed and lacked depth, often jumping from one scene to another without much explanation. The characters also felt underdeveloped and I couldn't connect with any of them. Additionally, the costumes and set design were lackluster, making the whole production feel low-budget. Overall, I felt that this version of the Wizard of Oz was a poor attempt at recreating the magic of the original.
2. Mark - 1/5 stars
I have to say, I was completely underwhelmed by "Cruel Witch Socks the Wizard of Oz". The acting was subpar, with most of the cast delivering their lines with little emotion or conviction. The songs were forgettable and lacked the catchy melodies of the original Wizard of Oz soundtrack. The special effects were also amateurish, and the use of green screens was noticeable and distracting. I understand that this may have been a low-budget production, but that doesn't excuse the lack of effort put into creating a compelling and enjoyable adaptation of a beloved classic.
3. Jenny - 2/5 stars
As a long-time fan of the Wizard of Oz, I was excited to see a new interpretation of the story. However, "Cruel Witch Socks the Wizard of Oz" fell flat for me. The changes made to the plot felt forced and unnecessary, detracting from the charm and magic of the original story. The pacing was also off, with some scenes dragging on while others were rushed through. I was also disappointed by the lack of character development, making it difficult for me to care about their journeys and ultimate resolutions. Overall, this version of the Wizard of Oz missed the mark and failed to capture the essence of the original.
