Labyrinth (1986)

We're on a real roll with "child reading a book" movies this lap,
and today we're talking about Labyrinth with Jordan Polan-Clarke!
After Joey shares his surprising (at least to him) history with
this movie, we discover we have a split opinion on David Bowie's
music in this movie. We talk about Labyrinth's strong use of the
color brown, discuss whether the movie and its performances are
"too theater-y," and pitch an alternate version of this movie with
Bowie's character in the real world. We ask: could Labyrinth be
"more Jim Henson" than it is? Could we succeed in a life spent in a
costume/puppetry rig? Which of today's pop stars would star in a
remake? Jordan talks about a famous juggler. We admire some stairs.
