Review of Being Elmo: A Puppeteer's Journey (2011) by Emily L — 28 Feb 2012

This is one inspirational, moving film. I would consider this one of the best documentaries out there that has a linear story and uplifting message. Kevin Clash is the perfect example of someone that with great determination and passion will get you far in life.

Clash perfectly illustrates the key events of his life in great detail that makes us viewers applaud and even cry for his success. I highly reccomend this film to anyone who believes that hard work and determination is the key to success.

Another scene that inspires me, is the scene where Kevin invites a young inspiring puppeteer to the studio. I find that scene amazing for two reasons, the kid mirrors the talent and ambition of Clash, and he is the perfect example that determination and talent is still visible in today's generation.

I loved it when the kid names all of the puppeteers, that shocked me. Overall, this film is brilliant on so many levels. This film is a well documented depiction of Kevin Clash's journey.
