Saw this in 1979 with Mom and Little Brother. Heart Wrenching. Kermit seemed to have a soul all his own. TRIVIA: Jim Henson spent an entire day in a 50-gallon steel drum submerged in a pond for the opening scene of Kermit in the swamp.
What I loved about the Muppets is that they treated kids with respect. The humour worked for both adults and kids. The later Disney-owned/produced stuff has - unfortunately - been quite idiotic. I'm not convinced the new Muppet movie is going to be much cop - but I'll reserve final judgement until I see it.
Im not sure what you mean. Jim Henson made plans with Disney. I understand it that he was doing what he could to protect and keep the Muppets around for generations to come.
Rainbow*Love Stretching sea to sea, embracing the full, luminous spectrum of humanity, Grounded end to end through family, community and friends, Arching high above, this perfect graceful bend, begs mankind to heal, reconcile and mend, Lighted, natural pathway to the stars, energetic guiding thread sets it’s divine halo overhead, Sharing one love of joyous, compassionate spirit with all who see, the true strength of our diversity... C.H.A.O.S.
Happy Birthday Mr. Henson...you are terribly missed...and no, I'm not crying...but who ever is cutting onions in here should really stop...seriously...
