Labyrinth
USA 1986, 101 min, 35mm, Dir: Jim Henson
A young Jennifer Connelly stars as Sarah, a 15-year-old girl who wishes goblins would take away her baby stepbrother, and get’s her wish. She is transported to a fairy tale land where she must make her way through an impossible and fantastical labyrinth and rescue him from the Goblin King, before he’s turned forever into a goblin. Along the way she meets a variety of strange characters, all beautifully crafted and performed by the famous creature shop, who either help her or try to further stray her from her goal. What’s more, the legendary David Bowie not only stars as the unusually suggestive Jareth the Goblin King but also wrote and performs the films musical numbers. Labyrinth is a modern classic that continues to delight and inspire both children and those who remember it from their childhoods.
