Films that I adore: Jim Henson’s Labyrinth

“Once upon a time, there was a beautiful young girl whose stepmother always made her stay home with the baby. And the baby was a spoiled child, and wanted everything to himself, and the young girl was practically a slave. But what no one knew is that the king of the goblins had fallen in love with the girl, and he had given her certain powers. So one night, when the baby had been particularly cruel to her, she called on the goblins for help!”

“The power of a wish. In the world above, wishes were will-o’-the-wisps: beautiful, but unsubstantial and always just out of reach. Here in the Underground, will-o’-the-wisps were very much real.”

Jareth: And now, back to this bitch that had a lot to say about me the other day to the citizens of my Labyrinth... Sarah, what's good?

     She bit into the peach.

     “This tastes … so strange.” She looked at the peach, and found that her eyes would not focus on it. She began to sway. Feeling that she might be going to faint, she took a step toward Hoggle, for support. She stumbled. With one hand she wiped her brow while, with the other, she held the peach out at arm’s length, trying to look at it properly. Then she understood. Slowly, she looked at Hoggle. He was a blurred, shimmering shape. “Hoggle,” she said quietly. “What have you done?”

     In a strangled voice, Hoggle cried out, “Damn you, Jareth! And damn me, too!” Turning his face away from Sarah, he ran headlong into the forest.

     Now Sarah was tottering. She managed to stagger to a tree, and leaned against it. She had already forgotten Hoggle and Ludo and Sir Didymus and Toby, and where she was and why.

     All her thoughts were for Jareth, and her eyes were looking up at the sky. “Everything’s dancing,” she whispered.
