In an
interview on Fresh Air, Guillermo Del Toro discusses his interests in fairy tales, magic and fantasy, the Spanish Civil War, insects, monsters, dreams, his childhood, symbolist painting, and other topics. I saw
Pan's Labyrinth a few nights ago and was wowed by the power of its storytelling and the imaginativeness of its visuals.
I heard this while sitting in traffic in one of the world's ugliest suburban strips. Truly political magic. Loved how wide and deep and broad the filmmaker's visual references were . . .
