Age Appropriate for: 5+. If you or your children have ever watched “Sesame Street” and are mature enough to shatter the illusion and learn there’s a man behind Elmo, the film is perfect.
‘Being Elmo: A Puppeteer’s Journey’ captures the wonderful charm of one of ‘Sesame Street’s’ most popular characters, and the overwhelming kindness of the man who brought him to life.
