I Am Big Bird: The Caroll Spinney Story (2014)
Amazing Life of Caroll Spinney
How can I express this...I went to school with his daughter. I was amazed when I found this, a truly heart-moving life story about her dad, that left them a legacy.....of joy, art, and puppeteering. Caroll had a heart of gold. I remember my obsession about crx's because Caroll bought Melissa one. I never met him, but saw his talent through Ben and Melissa. It was great to see videos of them as children and in interviews. All great people are "different" are sensitive and Caroll was all.
His love story with Debbie was moving and magical, he deserved to be happy. I feel big bird got him through lots of hard times in his life. Sesame Street was a joy to watch and made one feel an energy of all-is-well , especially when big bird was on the set. Oscar, the contrary of big bird, was the other part of him being expressed and it worked out to be funny as can be. A quite endearing story that I feel should be made into a TV movie.
Wonka (2023)
A Wonderful & Unique Adaption
I see it as a unique piece of originality, of creativity, not the typical irritating regurgitation of the same story. Bravissimi to all the directors and the cast, I have thoroughly enjoyed this newly revamped re-tell of this story.
From the crafty song lyrics to the actual storyline, this was a beautiful blend of musical, comedy, and fantasy.
I appreciate the far-fetched view they took using the original Dahl story to create something magical with the simple pieces of Dahl's imagination.
The players fit their parts well, all very talented and entertaining. The beginning idea was fantastic, the setting choices were truly memorable.
