Mirrormask

Send us Fan MailWe have our next listener chosen pick this week, which is 2005’s MirrorMask, suggested by friend of the show Melissa! This film is about a teenager who escapes from her life working at her family’s circus to a fantasy world after her mother has an unexpected health emergency. We discuss the history of the film, its connections with the Jim Henson company, as well as the unique animation techniques used in the making of the film. We also briefly discuss how well we are able to separate the art from the artist. So please join us. But remember…don’t let us see you’re afraid.
