Labyrinth
“Where everything seems possible and nothing is what it seems.”
Director
Jim Henson
Screenplay
Terry Jones, Jim Henson
Jim Henson's puppetry fantasy stars Jennifer Connelly as a teenager who must navigate a bewildering, Escher-inspired maze ruled by Jareth the Goblin King, played by David Bowie at his most theatrically seductive, to rescue her baby brother. Henson and conceptual artist Brian Froud fill the labyrinth with grotesque, inventive creatures rendered through practical effects that still feel tactile and strange decades later. A box-office disappointment on release, it has since become a beloved cult favorite, prized as much for Bowie's songs and presence as for its go-for-broke puppet artistry.
