Labyrinth

Movies watched in 2024

Labyrinth (1986, UK/USA)

Director: Jim Henson

Writer: Terry Jones (based on a story by Dennis Lee & Jim Henson)

Mini-review:

As a big fan of Jim Henson's work (the Dark Crystal universe, most specifically), this film has been on top of my watchlist for quite a while, and it was already time I made an effort to look it up and watch it. And man, I will never stop being amazed by Henson's incredible genius. I spent the whole film in awe of the sets, the costumes and, of course, the puppets. Pretty much every shot is pure art. And I was also surprised by how funny the script gets at times, too. I did feel like the story tended to meander a bit too much, but the visuals and puppetry were stunning enough to keep me interested until the very end. Anyway, I can understand why Labyrinth has developed such a big cult following.

More great moments from my favourite behind the scenes video!

Seriously, what on earth are Luke T, Luke N and Claudia talking about here?? I called this gif "Claudia Fish".

Look at them movin' and groovin'.

Surprise smooch attack! I would be flustered too if Charithra planted one on me, Luke T.

And lastly, Golda's hilarious photobombing!

Man in a Suitcase: All That Glitters (1.10, ITC, 1967)

"But I understand that. Cos I help people too."

"Out of kindness."

"For money."

"How much money?"

"Well, how much help do you need?"

"My friend told me that you were difficult. And rude."

"Well, you have very well informed friends."

THE TOURNAMENT IS OVER! Eartha Kitt lounges in her deck chair in the sun, dipping her toes in the pool with Toshiro Mifune and sipping a brightly colored fruity something with an umbrella in it.
