Follow That Bird

(1985)Directed by Ken Kwapis88 min · GFamily, Comedy, Adventure, Music
“It's big adventure! It's big laughs! It's Big Bird on the big screen!”

A social worker has Big Bird (Caroll Spinney) packed off from Sesame Street to live with a family of other birds, because she thinks that is where he belongs. He runs away from his foster home, and Kermit the Frog (Jim Henson) and the rest of the Sesame Street gang set out across the country to find him. Ken Kwapis makes a movie about the plain idea that home is the people who miss you.
