About
Sarah (Jennifer Connelly) is forced to babysit her baby stepbrother, Toby. He doesn't stop crying and she wishes that he'd be taken away.
When he stops crying, she learns her wish was granted and the Goblin King Jareth (David Bowie) has taken him to his castle in the Goblin City in the middle of a labyrinth. Sarah repents and asks Jareth to give him back, but Jareth tells her she has to rescue him before midnight. Soon she teams up with some allies: will they rescue Toby in time?
Our monthly Moviedrome screenings bring you the chance to discover - or rediscover! - a choice cut of cinema that's cult, classic or somewhere in-between. The films are hand-picked by our resident film expert George Cromack, who introduces each screening. Moviedrome is a mix of guilty pleasures you never tire of seeing and overlooked gems you'll wonder why you've never seen.
“No CGI here - Bowie, Muppet creator Jim Henson and George Lucas of Star Wars fame team up in a live action musical fantasy written by Monty Python’s Terry Jones, an unforgettable and magical fan favourite which remains a unique treat almost four decades on." George Cromack
“A hyper-real, vibrant daydream, Labyrinth's main strength lies in its fairytale roots which give the fantastical story a platform from which to launch into some deliriously outlandish scenarios." Total Film
