Great Muppet Caper, The (1981)

Stop the presses! The crime of the century has occurred, and Kermit, Fozzie and Gonzo are out to crack the case in this song-filled, star-studded extravaganza directed by the legendary Jim Henson. Our heroes arrive in London to interview Lady Holiday (Diana Rigg), a high-fashion designer whose priceless diamond necklace has just been stolen. But when Kermit mistakes lovely receptionist/would-be model Miss Piggy for her aristocratic employer, it’s love at first sight. Unfortunately, Lady Holiday’s scheming brother (Charles Grodin) is also wooing the sultry swine – so he can frame her for another jewel heist! Now it’s up to Kermit and his Muppet pals to clear Piggy’s name and catch the real culprits. Packed with music, remarkable production numbers and hilarious cameo performances (including John Cleese), this fully restored and remastered 50th Anniversary Edition of The Great Muppet Caper is the wackiest story ever told!
