Popcorn Culture - Throwback Tuesday: Labyrinth

A cult classic, Labyrinth has many hallmarks of the 1980s - it was directed by Jim Henson of The Muppets fame, written (in part) by Terry Jones of Monty Python fame, and starred Jennifer Connelly and David Bowie (!). In this episode of Throwback, we discuss why this movie has endured and grown in popularity and fame over time, and how it contributes to the fantasy genre.
