Every time I see this drawing this scene and song pops into my head. Because this scene is so iconic. Besides the Labyrinth was the first movie that I actually saw David Bowie act and sing in, and besides I kinda still have a crush on Jareth the Goblin King/David Bowie. R.I.P. David Bowie.
'Kinda have a crush.' I have been in love with this beautiful and unique genius since I was 12. Full on love. Your comment is a good one and your life is (I hope) still ahead of you, so carry on.
I just read someone in the comments say Jamie Cambell could play the Goblin King in a sequel to Labyrinth.Which if you check him out...would be brilliant!!!
We all know that this film only works mostly due to David Bowie's performance and songs...and that's why there should never be a remake....at least not on film. Bowie is perfect in this! 💜✨️ I would not say no to a stage adaptation but the actors for Jareth and Sarah would have to be exceptionally good and the staircase scene would have to remain.
One of my dreams was realized the day my Mom and I saw this in the theater. It was just this year, 2024, and I almost cried during the opening credits. I will always love that memory and this movie.
I love how Sarah did everything to get her brother back. She was determined she never gave up. And Jareth couldn't stand that. Because he wanted Sarah to love him to choose him instead of Toby. But she never did.
