The Labyrinth

I love the movie The Labyrinth. Jim Henson created a magical world that served as a beautiful backdrop for the journey of a young girl discovering the power within herself. Through obstacles created by the super yummy rocker prince Jerad she learned to assert herself and discover that her destiny belonged to her all along.

One of my favorite scenes is when Jerad dreams her into an intense masquerade ball. She is a young girl surrounded by characters that are beautiful and fearful at the same time. Part of her wants to stay but she knows that she belongs out in the real world beyond the glass walls

"Through dangers untold and hardships unnumbered, I have fought my way here to the castle beyond the Goblin City to take back the child that you have stolen, for my will is as strong as yours, and my kingdom is as great — You have no power over me."
