Reviews for Labyrinth: The Ultimate Visual History

This is a truly behind- and <i>in</i>-the-scenes look at a film that has maintained a pull on audiences for decades. With sketches, interviews with cast and crew and thorough research, Block and Erdmann explore the genesis of the film, its script, its puppets, the ins and outs of its filming, and the ups and downs of its reception. It's at once dazzling and engrossing. Shelf Awareness
