The Dark Crystal (17-Dec-1982)
Directors: Jim Henson; Frank Oz Writers: David Odell; Jim Henson Music by: Trevor Jones Producers: Jim Henson; Gary Kurtz Keywords: Juvenile/Fantasy, Muppet It is nearly a thousand years since the dark crystal was cracked and a shard of it lost, and evil rules the world in shadows. Jen, a Gelfling, embarks on a mission to reunite the crystal with its lost shard; failure means evil will rule forever. Dark, elegant film, Tolkienesque and strangely unsettling. Received a Hugo nomination for Best Dramatic Presentation.
