I Am Big Bird: The Caroll Spinney Story

There's little sour to temper the sweetness of this portrait.

Though its gooey, sentimental soundtrack is a misstep - this story is quite sweet enough already - "I Am Big Bird" is mesmerizing for anyone (and that's a lot of us) who grew up with "Sesame Street."

Very much a heartwarming tribute, bordering on treacly.

From his humble beginnings, to the years he spent in awe of the great Jim Henson, every noteworthy aspect of the performer’s life is meticulously documented to paint the portrait of a great man with an even greater legacy.
