Labyrinth in LA in July!
Filed under: Comedy, Drama, Music & Musicals, Fandom, Exhibition, Family Films
I don't think I could ever articulate what it is about Labyrinth that's so wonderful, but it's safe to say that I honestly have never met anyone who saw it and didn't love it. (Those of you who think puppets are stupid need to stay away.) The songs are outrageously catchy (I've had Dance, Magic, Dance in my head since I first read this story Friday morning, dammit), the characters -- human and otherwise -- are uniformly winning and it's got both David Bowie AND Jennifer Connelly (before she got her boobs, boys) -- what's not to love? While most of us have to make do with watching it on our televisions, those of you in LA have a special treat heading your way: On July 20 at 8pm, the movie will be screened at the Samuel Goldwyn Theater in Beverly Hills. But wait, there's more! In addition to seeing the magic on the big screen, you'll also get to witness a "post-screening conversation featuring the creative team behind Labyrinth, including [Brian] Henson, who is the voice of Hoggle and co-CEO of the Jim Henson Company." Sigh. Well, at the very least someone who gets to go better send us a report about how great it is. Please?

I'm going to lie down on the floor & have a temper tantrum if they don't release this to the rest of the country! Looove that movie. One of the perks of having kids is that you can buy them movies that you actually just wanted to get for yourself, which is what I did with Labyrinth.

I love this move. I also hope they release it to the rest of the world on the bis screen. I love this movie. I have it at home on DVD. I have watched it a million times. It would be great to see it on the big screen. I watched it once at my uncles houses and ever since then i have loved it. Hope they bring it to my home town!!
