Review of Being Elmo: A Puppeteer's Journey (2011) by Byron B — 03 Oct 2012
An inspirational look at the life and career of Kevin Clash. He meets and eventually works for Jim Henson. Kevin gets to develop the character of Elmo, who has become an international sensation. It is a student becomes the master kind of story.
The doc is most entertaining when showing behind the scenes footage of Kevin's early puppetry career, how the Muppets are built, and how they are operated for various TV and movie appearances. If this movie is any indication, Kevin Clash is carrying on Jim Henson's legacy for the next generation.
