Review of The Dark Crystal (1982) by Nelson M — 03 Jun 2012
Not my favorite Jim Henson fair, but a dark, whimsical film that deserves notice. It is one of the more artistically impressive films that I've seen. Puppetry is a dying art form and films like this need to be seen to impress a new generation of puppeteers.
This film, I am happy to say, would never work as a CGI film. This looks too real to be fake, everything is right there and for me, this is what separates it from other fantasy films.
