Labryth
1986
Director: Jim Henson
David Bowie as Jareth
Jennifer Connelly as Sarah
Sarah escapes life with her father and step-mother to
another place, the Labrynth. She discovers that she truly loves her
half-brother and sets out to save him from the goblin king.
The goblin king, played by David Bowie points out the
trouble with her argument about life being unfair and how much of what we see
and experience is all about our point of view.
With the help of fanciful friends, Sarah saves her brother
and returns home.
The final feature film Jim Henson made before his death, it was
deemed a failure at the time. Since the film has found its niche audience and
is considered a children’s classic film.
