Celebrate the birthday of Caroll Spinney, the man behind (or, I should say, inside) Big Bird. 1985′s “Follow That Bird,” features all of the show’s favorite characters and an array of guest stars but focuses more on gentle humor and lessons of tolerance than letters and numbers.
A well-meaning social worker decides that Big Bird needs to be with “his own kind’ and packs him off to live with the Dodo family. But while they may have feathers and wings, they are not really “his own kind,” and he feels lost and alone. He decides to go back home where he can be with the friends who are his real family and has adventures along the way, including an encounter with the Sleaze Brothers, who want to paint him blue and put him on stage as the “Blue Bird of Happiness.” But all ends happily as he is reunited with the people who love him, who are truly “his own kind.”
Families who see this movie will want to talk about the many ways that families are created and about how we decide what “our own kind” really means.

25 years? Really?! I remember my mom taking me to see this when I was little (9 years old), something we weren’t able to do very often. I’m going to have to get this. My 3yo may not be interested in it though, ’85 was pre-Elmo. =)

Hi, could you write honest, unbiased reviews about my work? Even one review will do, of any video on my blog.
Bad reviews too, I’m just looking for honesty & networking. We could set up an interview too if you may send your questions on email or skype if available. Anything goes.
Cheers everybody!
