Follow That Bird: Did Sesame Street Go too Far With This Movie?

Published 5 years, 9 months ago
Description

Follow That Bird is a movie released by Sesame Street and Jim Henson Productions in 1985. It tells the story of Big Bird leaving Sesame Street to go live with other birds. Sounds pretty standard, doesn't it? The problem is, this film might have been a bit too much for kids with some intense themes that you wouldn't expect. We'll explore this whole subject, and also why it got crushed at the box office when it should have been a hit.
