L is for Labyrinth @ This Grand Life
Do you have a favourite ‘classic movie’? One of our favourites is Labyrinth.
From the lavish costumes, to the brilliant characters and dialogue, it’s a movie we can watch over and over. Don’t even get me started on David Bowie and his hair, how good is that extreme mullet?
Plus even though it was made in the 80s it stands the test of time.
Other all-time ‘classic moves’ for my tribe include:
- The Dark Crystal Oh the glorious melancholic tale of the gelflings, I remember crying when I saw this movie as a little kid for Jen the orphan hero who needs to save the world, totally enraptured in the world of the Urskeks, Skeksis and the peace-loving Mystics.
- Stardust Robert De Niro at his finest, not to mention the divine Clare Danes playing Yvaine (a fallen star, *sigh*)… A brilliant swash-buckling adventure with a lot of heart.
- The Princess Bride First there is the beautiful Buttercup, snatched away to start a war, then there is her lovable sweetheart, not to mention giants, pirates and some fantastic sword fights!
Do you have an all time ‘classic movie’? Or two?
