pan's labyrinth
Johnny C:
That's a nice dream you have there.
Inlander:
Is there a faun in the dream?
BillAdama:
It really was an amazing movie. They had two totally different genres going on parallel, both of which were great on their own. Together they came together to pull off the whole escapism theme brilliantly.
The ads misrepresent the movie a bit. Like 70% of the movie takes place in the real world and focuses on the Spanish rebellion class conflict plot.
Barmymoo:
I've only seen pieces of this film as part of my Film Studies group's Fantasy week, (so we watched the more fantastical bits) but it looks great and I'm hoping to borrow it from a friend. But having seen the end I agree with the explanation that she's dealing with a trauma. Seems the way the director was wanting it anyway.
TheFuriousWombat:
SPOILER ALERT!!
idk, it's ambiguous. explain how the mandrake root made the mother temporarily better, and when discovered and thrown on the flames it screamed. this wasn't just witnessed by ofelia i don't think. also, wasn't one of the doors she made with the chalk found by the rebels when they stormed the mill? she managed to escape from her locked room and this only seems plausible if she used to the chalk to make a new door. just b/c the captain didn't see the faun doesn't mean it wasn't there. he didn't believe so he didn't see it but that doesn't mean it didn't really exist, in my opinion. but i'm undecided really. it's very debatable...
