A coming-of-age story, which celebrates childhood. Makes sense once you see it. References to Wizard of Oz abound, and we all know, that this is just a dream of Sarah’s. Sentimental, yet also insightful into the workings of a teen girl.

Labyrinth is far too intimate with David Bowie’s crotch. I now know far, far more about David Bowie’s penis than I ever wished to know, and he didn’t even take his pants off.

However, were I 16 again I’d probably not notice David Bowie’s crotch and instead be focused on Jennifer Connelley.

This movie should be called “Labyrinth, starring David Bowie’s Crotch” because, really, that would be a more accurate title. Whenever Bowie was on screen, it seemed like there was a little spotlight right there, hilighting it for all to see.

Or, was that just me?

Anyway. I only recently saw this film. I think if I had grown up with it my opinion would be very different (puppets scared the hell out of me, for one thing.) but as it is, I found this a great film to laugh at. I was giggling the whole way through. David Bowie should always be in spandex, that should be a new law. I don’t care if he’s like fifty something now. “Magic Dance” is the most catchy song in the world.

Watch this film.

david bowie = hot in spandex

This movie is one of my favorite all time movies… now. When I was a child, this movie scared the bejesus out of me. Funny, considering that such contemporary fare as The Dark Crystal is waaaay more terrifying when seen through the eyes of a toddler. Maybe it was the omnipresence of David Bowie’s package that disturbed me so… now it’s one of my favorite aspects of this wonderful film!
