    1:39 Bowie’s acting in this scene 🙌 his eyes tell it all. Jareth is watching Sarah go to all these lengths just for her baby brother, and almost entirely ignoring him. He loves her, and he wants her to love him back. He’s losing his grip on her, and it’s probably the first time he hasn’t gotten something he wanted.
    Bowie is so multitalented. RIP legend.

    I like the implied metaphor of this scene - Jareth can make supposedly impossible things real, even make an Escher painting exactly what it seems to suggest. "I move the moon and stars for no-one".

    this scene fucked me up as a kid… I actually had nightmares about such impossible staircases where you had to figure out how to escape there. Bloody awesome movie! Too bad David Bowie disowned it and felt embarrassed about it. :/

      Indeed. We are all entitled to our opinions he perhaps more so. I think he played it well and it was a great movie at the very least because it was an adventure/fantasy movie of a very different kind and appreciable by all ages. I loved thisd McEsche-esque scene.

      It is rooted in that same genre.
      The difference is that Alice was always asleep beneath that tree while she was enduring a boring lecture from her nanny, whereas Sarah seems to have suffered a sudden loss of consciousness ending with her collapsed on the floor downstairs.
      This implies that Sarah maybe afflicted by a brain disorder causing her to hallucinate everything in the film based on the contents of her room and the story she was reading at the beginning.

      It's all in the eye of the beholder.
      What Jareth sees as cruelty is Sarah's conflict between temptation and familial obligation.
