Hoggle's overwhelming similarity to Charles Bukowski

[edit]

Hoggle’s face is an obvious exaggeration of poet [Charles Bukowski]’s face. Have any of the character designers acknowledged this? It cannot be coincidental. Breadteam (talk) 07:57, 16 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Production Trivia

[edit]

On a YouTube podcast called. "Jack's Throwback Attack", I heard in an interview with Francis Wright, one of the puppeteers in the film, a fascinating behind the scenes story between David Bowie and Toby Froud that never seems to get talked about. It was in Jareth's castle I think during the shooting of "Magic Dance", and it tells of a connection between Labyrinth and popular British children's character Sooty. If I added it, would it not be considered appropriate for Wikipedia? If anyone wants to, I can link the video of this podcast episode that way you can have proof.
