Labyrinth Specifications
Sarah (a teenage Jennifer Connelly) rehearses the role of a fairy-tale queen, performing for her stuffed animals. She is about to discover that the time has come to leave her childhood behind. In real life she has to baby-sit her brother and contend with parents who don't understand her at all. Her petulance leads her to call the goblins to take the baby away, but when they actually do, she realizes her responsibility to rescue him. Sarah negotiates the Labyrinth to reach the City of the Goblins and the castle of their king. The king is the only other human in the film and is played by a glam-rocking David Bowie, who performs five of his songs. The rest of the cast are puppets, a wonderful array of Jim Henson's imaginative masterpieces. Henson gives credit to children's author and illustrator Maurice Sendak, and the creatures in the movie will remind Sendak fans of his drawings. The castle of the king is a living M.C. Escher set that adults will enjoy. The film combines the highest standards of art, costume, and set decoration. Like executive producer George Lucas's other fantasies, Labyrinth mixes adventure with lessons about growing up. --Lloyd Chesley
Customer Reviews
I can honestly say that I have no idea who he was, when I saw this movie, but I love it! I remember this movie on Disney Channel when I was about 8 or 9, especially around Halloween. I wish my watch and bop her head to the songs and I really enjoyed this movie. It was not until I was 19 and I happened upon this movie to a friend who immediately recognized the film as "Labyrinth" and almost immediately got up and went to the local Walmart, describe this little number Pickup! I do not even know that Sarah was played by a young Jennifer Connelly so far.
David Bowie is timeless and beautiful in this film! I love her dazzling costumes, and always on the screen seems to me the breath from my throat margins. Bowie is not even in my generation and I am a hardcore fan-girl of his. His music is sublime in this film, particularly "as the World Falls Down" in the fan-favorite dance scene (the scene I used to watch the movie when I describe to forget his name). I alsoSuch as "Within You ',' underground ',' Chilly Down 'and of course' Magic Dance ': Yes, if you love this movie and watch the first thing you want to get your hands is the soundtrack.
The DVD extras are moving, and I felt privileged for the film, and the comments by the actors themselves, and, of course, Bowie. The margins are also very fun to watch as well. Oh I forgot, we do not, the fact that this film would not even be possible without a master puppeteerJim Henson.
Jennifer Connelly as Sarah is so cute. His character is complemented by some growth into the film. Begins as a selfish, kids, immature young girl, whose tired, his younger brother, Tobey, convulsion their lives. She wants him involuntarily with a statement of "magic words" and before you know it, during which the Goblin King (Bowie) has granted the wish. Knowing what they did, proposes a pact with the king in bad faith and enter theMaze, as a struggle against time to save to meet their brother, or will remain forever in the grip of the Goblin King. On the way to meet some interesting characters and it makes friends for help (or distraction) in their journey.
Some say that this film is like a child or creeped, or seems too strange and Corny to look like an adult. I disagree. This film is a fun and see if you saw him as a child and you will see him with a wave of nostalgia hit as an adult! I highlyrecommened this movie for children and adults (especially if you're a Bowie!)
