Family Flicks Film Series: Labyrinth

  • This is a past program

Recommended for ages 8+*

This coming-of-age musical fantasy features the late David Bowie in one of his most electrifying film roles as Jareth the Goblin King, sorcerer ruler of The Underground. Accompanied by a motley crew of Jim Henson’s creatures, 15-year-old Sarah Williams journeys through a maze of magical lands to rescue her baby brother Toby from Jareth’s dark clutches. Original Bowie songs, stellar hair, and out-of-this-world costume changes make this cult classic the perfect way to pay tribute to the Starman’s genius. (1986, dir. Jim Henson, 101 min.)

*All ages are welcome. Feel free to take a break with infants and toddlers in the theater lobby. 

Family Flicks Film Series

UCLA Film & Television Archive and the Hammer Museum have teamed up for a matinee screening series of new and classic family-friendly films from around the world.

All Hammer public programs are free and made possible by a major gift from an anonymous donor.

Generous support is also provided by Susan Bay Nimoy and Leonard Nimoy, Good Works Foundation and Laura Donnelley, an anonymous donor, The Samuel Goldwyn Foundation, and all Hammer members.

The Hammer’s digital presentation of its public programs is made possible by the Billy and Audrey L. Wilder Foundation.

Hammer Kids is made possible through the generosity of the Anthony & Jeanne Pritzker Family Foundation. 

Hammer Kids has also received funding from supporters and friends of the Hammer Museum’s Kids’ Art Museum Project (K.A.M.P.), an annual family fundraiser. 

Additional support has been provided by Resnick Foundation, The Rosalinde and Arthur Gilbert Foundation, the Elizabeth Bixby Janeway Foundation, and the Art4Moore Fund of the Tides Foundation.
