Don't Eat the Pictures: Sesame Street at the Metropolitan Museum of Art (1983)
IMDb plot summary: IMDb plot summary: As the Metropolitan Museum of Art closes, Big Bird decides to leave his Sesame Street friends behind in search of Snuffy. Once locked inside for the night, educational hilarity ensues as Big Bird and Snuffy team up to help a ghost of a small Egyptian boy solve a mysterious riddle. The rest of Sesame Street's residents search for Big Bird.
Directed by Jon Stone. Starring Caroll Spinney, Frank Oz, Jerry Nelson, and Martin P. Robinson.
Let me start by saying I did not grow up watching Sesame Street, so my nostalgic attachment to these characters is much lower than it would be for most folks my age. That being said, this is a pretty charming little art special for kids. It’s engaging for younger ones without talking down to them, and I like how many pieces of actual art we get to see, as well as seeing characters connect to them for different reasons. The songs are all pretty decent, too. Even though I am not the intended audience for this, I admire what it’s doing.
