Artist, Genius, Gentleman. 🤍 ♡ 🤍

I'm here.

Me too!!!

It’s a great quote

Lovely story almost brought a tear to my eye x

You sound generous and kind yourself! Also it sounds like David Bowie made off with your umbrella.

Wait- they considered micheal Jackson?

Yuck!! I would have hated that!! David Bowie is the sexiest villain I have ever seen!!!

And Sting!

I LOVE This movie but I did not know that Michael Jackson was an option 😭

​@@amandadunn1238 Yes because being sexy is the only thing that matters about this movie role.... If you can't even praise him for his acting....

I thought she was American. She sounds British

@@thedevilsadvocate5210 - Yes, she's american.

@EQ Nation what is about?

@EQ Nation calm down bro you can find stuff like that anywhere if you are looking for it. Stop Trying to find evil, it's everywhere you don't have to look for it like that

Hollywood used to have class, now it’s nothing but Leftists & their degenerate identity politics.

I thought she was 16 years old here.

@@viniciusalmeida1190 she was 14 when filming The Labyrinth.

​@@LungsOutJemI see. So the interview was filmed in 1984-1985 I believe.

​​Film debuted in (late) june 1986, but was shot between april to september 1985.. Jennifer is from december 1970 which means she was aged 14 years and 4 months to 14 years and 9 months when the movie was shot..and she was 15 years and 6 months when the film got finally released (in the US).. so she was still aged 14 for the vast majority of 1985 and 15 for the vast majority of 1986. ​@@viniciusalmeida1190

Brian Froud and his wife helped Jim a lot! I almost see them as a trio lol

John Candy was another huge star.

I know a guy down the street. He's not huge like John Candy or this Henson guy, but he's pretty big. I think he eats a lot.

I didn't know Jim Henson directed this, that's so cool!

So true

She is stunning. Timeless beauty.

totally agree to that

She is still beautiful.

Just a pity she is a little bit nuts.

We’ll probably because she was only born in. The 70s and was 14 here

She lost a couple of things along the way...😅

@@maximusprime3459 - Yep, most people do.

@@NOWtheband Not on purpose. Shame in her case.

@@maximusprime3459 - Maybe not, maybe so.... Shame can be inside anything I guess! (depends on the individuals ability to feel shame perhaps).

*a slight English accent

She was probably taught to enunciate in the mid-Atlantic dialect. It sounds really fake. I'm kinda sad that she doesn't have any Brooklyn accent whatsoever.

no but same! like I understand that he may have been toxic/narcissistic...but he's so damn hot like frrr

I was a young teen when this came out, and I was like, "Now hear me out...you could actually just STAY, Sarah....right? Just sayin" 😏

Yes, same always thought this 🙈 bring my baby brother back, and I’ll be your goblin princess 👸🏻

I had the same reaction when I watched it but somewhere in the back of my mind I felt a little creeped by the idea that ancient Jareth was in love with 15 y/o Sarah.... Still I would have danced with him until the world falls down.😍

Same here. If Jareth returned Toby, then if I was Sarah I would have stayed! I get why she didn't, but seriously..... Hell yeah, I would be his Queen!

He didn't play her father in this movie. She had a stepmother.

@@Kathy-pr4wu there a short clip of what appears to be her mother, who is an actress, in a clip with her “boyfriend” which is david bowie. Its hard to spot but its there. Its like a tabloid clip on her vanity/dresser

@@Kathy-pr4wu if you look closely, everything in the film is foreshadowed in her bedroom at the beginning. The entire trip through the labyrinth is a manifestation of Sarah's fantasies. You see a newspaper clipping on her dresser of an actress who has a steamy kiss with her co-star, the implication is that her mother left her father for her co-star, who is David Bowie in the picture. It's laid out more explicitly in the novel adaptation, Sarah has a kind of crush on the actor, he takes her mother and Sarah out to dinner, and he's the first man (out adult even) to ever treat Sarah as an adult, he doesn't talk down to her and takes her thoughts and feelings seriously, he dances with her and she develops a kind of crush. Ultimately it's a coming of age story, and Sarah is grapling with moving from childhood into adulthood, and her sexual fantasies also help to manifest Jareth as we see him. Next time you watch it, see what you can spot in her bedroom, the Escher stairs, Ludo, the cleaners, the goblin King doll, it's all there.

@@rivertam7827 Whoa, thats a lot more than I saw in the movie. It was too cheesy to give much thought about.

David IS her mother's boyfriend. Watch the tracking shot across her desk in the beginning that reveals all her belongings. That tells the whole story right there. Her mother was an actress who ran off with another man. The daughter aspires to be like her mother: to be an actress, run away from her home and responsibilities, and find a man to fall in love with. When overcome with the responsibilities of looking after her little brother, she descends into a fantasy world where she imagines what it would be like if all her dreams came true. In doing so, she realizes what she's giving up and must grapple with her desires and responsibilities as she transitions from a child to an adult. The Labyrinth, David Bowie, and all the friends she meets, are merely reflections of her subconscious as she struggles with these psychological issues. It blows me away how people can watch this movie and not understand it. It's basically a loose retelling of The Wizard Of Oz, where the moral to the story is "there's no place like home", except with the added dimension of her transition from a girl to a woman.

*was

@@potatowaffle6648 right😢

@@iluvu3 I like dinner rolls better than gender rolls myself...

@@lemurianchick cinnamon rolls are my favorite

I'm not sure what your comment means. Bowie came from a music era called the new romantics. It was based on the powder and patch era just before the Regency era in Europe. You can see the birth of it towards the end of Punk. The romantic era included bands such as The Cure, The Cult etc. The lead singer of The Cult is even wearing powder and patch in one of his music videos. It wasn't about gender roles. It harkened back to a classical period where men wore these clothes, make-up etc to show they were the top gentlemen of society. The Bucks, the Corinthians. In the 80's we see this branch into glam rock, love rock, goth. Even GnR dressed glam in the early days. Just as an aside, when the Regency Period arrived, the men did away with the Powder and Patch, but the tailor-made clothes continued for quite some time. Wealth was shown in the clothes, but these clothes needed to allow for horseriding etc. Bear in mind also that the women of high society also wore powdered wigs and make-up, but dresses not suits.

Bowie inspired J-Rock bands!?? Any recommendations?

@@Mesozoical Definitely check out Buck Tick & Malice Mizer!

God only knows how it must've been for Jennifer Connelly :D

I'm pretty sure it had its own entry in the credits. ;)

100% me 😩💓

Same!

I'm a guy and unfortunately for me I couldn't escape the bloody thing 😆 good thing the film weren't 3D, would've been ducking a lot

He sounds more Kermit-y here.

She was 15 or 16. I checked.

She was very pretty at this age, but (aside from being underage in this film) she became better looking as she in the 90s. In Career Opportunities and Dark City she was just flawless.

The Rocketeer and The Hotspot

Great though it is I think greatest ever is stretching it a bit. There are better films just with Bowie alone, same for Connelly. It's certainly up there with the best childrens/family films though, and probably the most fun Bowie film.

Voodoo?

@@reachandler3655 You do!

@@dg271 Do what?

@@reachandler3655 It's from the Magic Dance in Labyrinth, similar to one in the 1947 Cary Grant movie "The Bachelor and the Bobysoxer" What power? Power of voodoo Who do? You do

@@dg271 I know, I was continuing the song.

It's a short clip of her acting for a high budget, staged and scripted promotional video.

I understand completely! I have lived and breathed this movie since I was 15 and passed on that love to my girls, the oldest of which who is coincidentally named Sarah❤️❤️❤️

Give the re-boot ie regurgitate generation of " creators" some idiot will. AND they'll ruin it and tick all of us off.

I agree with you. There are just some movies that the second someone utters, "remake" or "reboot", that person should be escorted off the set/lot and permanently banned from reentry.

I noticed that as well. There is a slight but noticeable English twinge.

I'm an American and it seems to happen to me as soon as I get off an airplane in London! Haha!! Some people are definitely more susceptible to picking up on the accents around them and Jennifer Connelly is probably the same way. I know I have to consciously fight it off and I think most of the time when I'm in England, I end up sounding very similar to Jennifer Connelly in that clip. A Londoner once even assumed I must have lived somewhere else other than America because my American accent was so "light". Nope, just a full American trying desperately not to float into your accent while I'm talking to you. 🤣

I noticed that too. I searched the comments to see if anyone mentioned it!

I was wondering about that how her accent kept slipping.

I was confused at first because I could have sworn she was American. Thanks to the comments it's clear now that it's just that accent drift that sometimes happens when you're in a different place.

I TOTALLY agree!!! Dental work is one aspect that has changed. And just the natural aging process.

On the dvd i have theres an interview with david bowie.

Bowie stayed at the Hotel Andaluz in Albuquerque; there's a scene in the movie where he escapes from captivity and escapes via the hotel lobby.

And Never ending story.

@@federicosagun4615 My video tape of that was absolutely battered too 😂

Not sure why they never made a proper sequel 20yrs later

yes. she was 15 I think

@@greeneyedwitch1103 Thanks for your answer Have a wonderful day today 😊

I saw the film during the july 4th weekend. I thought it was fantastic. I understand that it was a box office bomb when it was initially released but that it has become a cult classic in the intervening years. Imho it deserves a lot of acclaim. I think it has elements of old school fairy tales in it ( im not alone in having this idea - several reviewers thought this also.)....and jungian/freudian undertones, too. I bet it was misunderstood when it was first released. I think Connelly and Bowie turn in great performances . Caveat - i wdnt let kids under 10 see it. This film might induce some nightmares in grade school kids who are a little immature.

@@daviddemar8749 I agree with you and this is one of my favorite "cult following" movies. Another movie that I think was under appreciated was Legends with Tim Curry, Mia Sara and Tom Cruise at the very beginning of his career.

@@beberivera7011 Wow ive never heard of that one either. I didn't know that mia sara had been in anything else besides ferris bueller's day off. Gracias para su recomendacion yo mirare esta pelicula esta noche!

Soundtrack is a classic
