Histoire
Le saviez-vous
- AnecdotesHow Jim Henson created Kermit The Frog and his Origin Story.
This is the origin story of all of these characters," Howard says of the film. "Kermit started as his mother's coat, the fabric from some old coat she was throwing away. They didn't even know he was a frog for a long time. They didn't know what he was. He just fit Jim's hand, and Jim could create funny reactions, and the character could be an alter ego for Jim. And then, slowly but surely, they decided he was Kermit the Frog."

Commentaire à la une
I knew immediately that this bio documentary about Jim Henson was in good hands (Ron Howard directing) with the opening, played out against the rousing music of Charles Mingus in one of his trademark barn-burning performances. The story is one of unbridled creativity, and the movie, along with authoritative commentaries by the likes of Frank Oz and Jennifer Connolly, speaks for itself. Howard is especially successful at the poignant way he handles Henson's sudden death, which I had forgotten even though I was a reporter covering the movie industry 34 years ago when it occurred.
One element that hit me out of the blue was a shot of George Lucas on screen during the coverage of "Labyrinth". It reminded me how difficult it would be to make a documentary on Lucas's life, and how there are book-ending similarities in his career relative to Henson's: both were once experimental filmmakers in the 1960s (THX 1138 4EB versus Timepiece), later becoming entwined in the commercial side of the entertainment business with huge financial success, and their creative achievements ended up in the domain of Walt Disney (himself an analogous figure in history).
