Elmo is probably our favourite Muppet, no doubt due to his continual desire to be tickled. But have you ever wondered what goes on beyond the red fur?
Being Elmo: A Pupeteer’s Journey is far-and-away the sweetest documentary concept we’ve seen all year. It follows the life of Kevin Clash, the guy who animates Elmo for a living, interspersing it with the story of Jim Henson and the Muppet gang’s rise to success. Premiering at Sundance Film Festival in January, it will be getting full release from next month. Try and watch this whole thing without wanting to rush out and find your old Sesame Street doll.
Awwwwwww!
