It reminds me of my little niece. Only 5 but a tall poppy. I hope with this film to teach her about the importance of staying strong against jealous bullies who don’t have big enough hearts to love.

I love that Poppy picks up her dad when she hugs him. That is so undeniably wholesome I just-… AUGH I love it!

I agree @LavenderOtaku. It was such a beautiful moment.

Ok here's my opinion just in case anyone's interested. I think Tall Poppy should be a full feature movie in a theater!! This left me with such an uplifting great feeling!!! ❤️😄👍🏻 Thank you

How about a new short feature before every child's film? Bring back an older tradition?

WHY you have to be so mean for every single time ??? Is it POSSIBLE to be a little more EASY GOING with me since I am so I am so IMPERFECT & ALWAYS MAKE A LOTS ERRORS !! OBVIOUSLY, as YOU have noticed that I must always wished to be TALLER, yet Dear GOD DECIDED everything for me since I was born .. no exceptions as truthy being thankfulness but not a complain .. I guess you would forgive me for this honest comment ?? By the way, it has strongly shown that you have a tremendous observation ability and, moreover, you might meant in a good way as a rollercoaster poppy perhaps .. thanks for the hard and qualitied process in post-production specially !!

[@crysaura]

This made me feel better being who I am in a “sad beige” world. At least that’s what’s glamorized. I used to feel bad for not wanting to live in that trend, but I don’t care anymore. I love the zany quirky things in my home, I love that it’s colorful 🌈

[@shekelafarmer8306]

Love the drawn out character and their beautiful movements and face expressions to show them to be caring, happy or sad; respectfully to the artist for such awesome artworks neat. 👌

My grandfather passed six months before I was born he was called Poppy. I grew to be a very tall child and adult and despised it for so long until I learned it was a beautiful trait I was blessed with. I never met him but poppy would be proud of his tall poppy. A truly beautiful short film.

[@cguinsurance]

Thank you for sharing such a heartfelt story. It's touching to hear how you’ve come to embrace your height as a beautiful trait and how it connects you to your grandfather. We're glad that Tall Poppy resonated with you and that you found the film beautiful. Your grandfather would indeed be proud of his tall poppy. ~ Checo

[@sbjkl83]

so funny and sweet. it was so sad when poppy's art was destroyed and tossed away, but then the whole black and white town got its colours, with all of poppy's friends and enemies. oh I love Jim Henson Company. my only question in the film was "what happened to poppy's family and who dropped her off?". otherwise, I LOVED IT!

[@putrierq]

she's a good girl, she is able to make the city where she lives colorful🤗❤️

[@cguinsurance]

Absolutely agree with you there Putri. Its people like Tall Poppy who makes the world a much bright place.

[@hollyweseloh7360]

I am a Tall Poppy… you told my story… How did you know? And Thank You. Eventually I learned to Love My-Own-Self. I met Jim Henson & his crew in 1983 at Universal Studios at the screening of the Dark Crystal. There he sat, on the back of the couch, in his velvet jacket with his gold Kermit lapel pin with the green jewel eyes. I waited in line behind all the children, I was 40 yrs. ‘ol. all I could say to him then was” Thank You for making it Ok to be green”. And now Thank You Brian for making it Ok to be Tall… ❤️❤️❤️💚💚💚💚💚💚💚💚❤️. 💙💛

[@claireschweizer4765]

I'm not sure what year this masterpiece was filmed, but It truly resonates with me as my mom said my legs stuck out like that as a baby and everyone I've known throughout my life has told me I'm "tall for my age " or "long limbed and gangly" I had the privilege of getting to see the Jim Henson traveling exhibit last year and I hope I remember every last minute of those glorious long hours, how genius and beautiful of a man he was, I hope to be an artist someday a fraction as accomplished. Peace and love,all❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
