Our take

It’s testament to Jim Henson’s restless creative energy that even a trip to the woods with his wife, kids, and collaborator Frank Oz would bear artistic fruits with this lovely short. Featuring a score by Sesame Street composer Joe Raposo, Run, Run is a kinetic, autumnal ode to childhood play.
