Did anyone else catch that Ofelia mentioned a black stone in the story she told her unborn brother? It made me think of Howard's story, but only for a second since this movie had so many unique elements.

Don't judge a book, or movie, by its cover
I definitely was not ready for "Pan's Labyrinth." I don't want to spoil it for anyone hasn't watched it yet, but I was surprised how gruesome it was. I looked at the cover and was like, "Awww, look at the cute littler girl. This will probably be pretty tame. I wonder why it's rated 'R'." That question got answered real quick.

I agree. I did not realize how gruesome it was. I am not a fan of gruesome or gory movies, yet the other elements of the movie quickly took my mind of the parts I did not like.
ReplyDeleteI noticed the black stone too. Yea, I thought that she told some odd nursery stories to an unborn child..
The first time I watched this movie was in high school and I had nightmares. Every time I eat at Chucks I look at this gross painting that looks like the thing in at the table with all the forbidden food. I wonder why they would put such a scary picture in a restaurant.
ReplyDeleteAlso, the first time I watched the movie I was really confused on if what she was seeing was real or not.
