Having grown up on Sesame Street, The Dark Crystal, Labyrinth, and the Muppets, I had to check this out. Jim Henson created an experimental live short back in 1965, it was crazy! Someone must have loved it because it was nominated for an Oscar. Awesome. Time Piece is now available to view for free on Youtube.
I love Time Piece! Hearts for Jim Henson!
ReplyDeleteWow. How bizarre. I enjoyed it. Here's a few things I noticed: "Help" is 100% Kermit; Frank Oz is also credited; Jim Henson must have been the only guy in 1965 with a beard.
ReplyDeleteI don't think that it helps that Jim Henson's voice is essentially Kermit's. Jim Henson was a man before his time.
