Description
Day 6 of my Valentine's Day project. (A smooch doodle every day until the 14th.)Day 6: Jen and Kira from Dark Crystal. I can't tell you how I love that movie. The first time I ever saw it was in the first grade, and I knew it as a documentary. There weren't any smooches in it though...

I typically don't like the idea of Jen and Kira being together like that, but this picture was done so beautifully that I can't help but love it.

Very cool movie! I think the two of them should have gotten together at the end though. Very cute couple!

I think they DID get together at the end of the movie! Did you see they way they rested their heads on each other? Total bliss and contentment!

Lovely pic. The Dark Crystal is a very fabulous, artistic movie and it shouldn't be very underated. ^^

Yes, this wonderful movie severely lacked any kind of kiss. What, you think kids can't handle a little kiss?
*Sigh* They're such a nice pairing. The contrast of their skin and hair is so pretty.
I hope the kiss is followed by some mating, though. The gelfling race doesn't repopulate itself, you know.

After re-viewing the ending, I'm thinking there WAS an offscreen kiss at the end, just before the "now we leave you the Crystal of Truth" line - but it was edited out. Their heads were positioned just right for it before and after that scene. I even wrote a short fanfic about this, called "The Kiss" on www.fan fiction.net. I think you'd like it.

That's very good.
One of the first films I ever saw. I must get the spundtrack.

You know the Gelflings and Jen's teachers remind me American Indians and Elves put together.

Oh man. I loved that movie. Those bug things creeped me out, but I had always wanted to be one for Halloween.

That would've been the most awesome Halloween costume ever.

I just watched it again the other night- every few years I convince myself that that's a good idea. But i isn't, as the magic is sooo lost for me now.

I still love it. Have you seen any of the Storyteller series? I all but foamed at the mouth when I found it on dvd.

John Hurt, all Henson-ed up, telling obscure fairy tales that are acted out by Creature Shop denizens. I love it.

"I am a teller of stories, a weaver of dreams. I can dance, sing, and in the right weather I can stand on my head. I know seven words of Latin, I have a little magic, and a trick or two. I know the proper way to meet a Dragon, I can fight dirty but not fair, I once swallowed thirty oysters in a minute. I am not domestic, I am a luxury, and in that sense, necessary."

Thanks! Though the movie wasn't bright and colorful (until the end) it was nice to use those colors. Now that the sun's back a few hours a day, I'm remembering what I've been missing.

The Blu-Ray has some amazing color highlights in this movie! You notice flowers in the background you never saw before. Chamberlain's face has purple highlights. Kira's blonde hair has green highlights, and Jen's has purple.

Colorful! I like the way their hair colors complement each other. And the green background with creepers of course.

Thanks. The movie itself isn't as bright (got Dark right there in the name) and I made a much more muted version, but last night, I decided I liked the bright one better.

Oh yeah! Even the cute little fuzzy animals in it were a little off-putting. I think that added to the Dark Crystal world though.
