The girl, Ivana, who plays Ofelia is so pretty with her hair all curly. She has such a soothing and sweet voice too, whether she's speaking in Spanish or English.
Doug Jones does a great job in Pan's Labyrinth and his make-up/costumes are all amazing in every show he does. He does have a new independent film out, however, called my name is jerry where he wears NO makeup at all. The first time he has acted like that -- check it out and see what you think for yourself. i love him in it!
@BarcelonaSpain100 Guillermo is a MEXICAN director. Pan's Labyrinth was funded by a MEXICAN, SPANISH, and AMERICAN production companies distributed by a MEXICAN distributor, Esperanto Films, and the story takes place in SPAIN. There you go.
@BarcelonaSpain100 Tio, only someone who is ignorant would confuse us with Mexicans.
For whoever made the comment: Castillian is not the same language spoken in central/south america and the Caribbean. What they speak is a slang influenced by American English and their own indigenous languages.
@BarcelonaSpain100 It's a Mexican movie, made by Guillermo del Toro, who is Mexican not Spanish get over it. Also Children of Men was made by Alfonso Cuaron, who is Mexican. 2 of the best films this decade are from Mexicans.
@BarcelonaSpain100 you dont have to be so rude about it. its a simple mistake people make. im 13 and white and i can speak mostly spanish and i still make mistakes like that. ive even been to mexico twice. so you dont have to get all personel about it. you need to cool your beans.
Special effects describes all effects that are in movies or TV. It could be makeup, mechanical, or digital. Visual effects almost always refers to effects involving merging reality with digital elements.
It's crazy how much wrong information is written and actually believed...... All three of you are totally wrong.
I have been a "Special Effects Makeup Artist" for over twenty years...All three (ShayXReneeXSidle, TheMiniFigMaster, FuriousArts.) are wrong, but FuriousArts wins as being so completely off the mark that I can hardly believe what he wrote..
A lesson to all...Stop trying to educate others when you yourself are uneducated on an given subject...
Visual effects can range to include every sort of visual aesthetic: hair, makeup, prosthetics, props, etc. Special effects are visual tricks such as CGI(computer generated images) effects and other effects that distort the viewer's perception and what not.
I was lucky enough to get to meet the actor who played The Pale Man and The Faun at Crypticon this past weekend. His name is Doug Jones and he has to be the nicest, coolest guy on the planet - he talked to me for 18 minutes, and let me film the whole thing! How cool is that?
I think that keeping it Spanish makes the movie sound more cool and mysterious because I don't understand a word of Spanish anyways. Job well done, Guillermo!
How did they create the really gory, physically involved scenes, like smashing the guy's nose flat with a bottle, or Mercedes actually giving the captain that mouth scar? They looked so real, and I just want to know how they were done.
@ladyfeathertail i thought so too! lol he is soo mesmerizing, and his language is not the typical spanish, it all melds together to make him seem so cool.
You know what bugged me the most about th epart when she eats the grape? I remember getting real pissed and saying, "If you're gonna break the rules, why a GRAPE? There's A JUICY STEAK RIGHT THERE!!" xD
I'm thinking a grape (and not steak) might be to link it to the Persephone myth regarding eating some fruit in the underworld. But yeah, I concur with your whole hung for a sheep as a lamb reasoning.
they were werent they. shes lucky they can fit in her mouth lol.and soodle ur right i started to laugh alot when u put they would notice the steak was missing
they were werent they. shes lucky they can fit in her mouth lol.and soodle ur right i started to laugh alot when u put they would notice the steak was missing

yeah i know--ive seen it before, but i have absolutely no way of getting my hands on the dvd, so if someone could post it, though it wouldnt do it any justice, i would appreciate it...
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
...sorry to say but i was so dissapointed in this movie. i grew up watching movies like the labyrith & the dark crystal & although im not comparing this movie to them, i think this has fallen short so much on what it could have been...
...personally i would have liked to see more of the "fantasy" world than the "real" world...kinda like a twisted alice in wonderland. essentially there were only 2 tasks that took place in the fantasy world & if u add up time in the film that we see the fantasy world it isnt much at all. it left me feeling like alittle empty...
I like labyrinth and the never ending story, but there is no way you can compare them, this is a dark fairy tale, but not only that, this is the beggining of a fairy tale, this movie shows how leyends and fairy tales are born, that is what I think.
glad to know everyone has written good about this movie ...I watched it last night and liked it very much too and I am an adult ! Congratulations to the director and all Spanish movie makers now I have a very good opinion about Spanish movies and shall watch more if I get a chance
Well... i don't know if it's actually a child- friendly movie... remember the boy whose head was crack opened by being beaten with the bottom of a wine bottle? And that all being shown? ^^
Great movie! I finally watched it last night. You should see the movie. Even my boyfriend, that hates subtitled movies watched it. I was sorta shocked that it wasn't a kids movie. I figured that out in the face bashing scene. :P~~
This was a really well-made movie. I especially liked the effect that came with the movie's dialogue being in Spanish. It adds to the feeling and makes it realistic.
Not for kids, no. I stil think they could've made more out of it. To me it just seemed like a short-story, or something. But the skinny man has got to be one of the creepiest movie monsters ever. Damn, when he's chasing after the girl.. :P
It's late at night my neighbors are asleep and I'm screaming, "Run Ofelia, Holy Sh*t you gotta get the hell outta there, OMG OMG OMG! DRAW THE FREAKING DOOR ALREADY!!!"
Well, it's said that It took five hours for Doug Jones to get into The Pale Man costume and that this movie received 22 minutes of applause at the Cannes Film Festival...god damnit i need to see this movie >.<
You should watch it NOW! It's really good! Just don't try watching it with your 7 years old cousin like I did!lol Yeah my bad...but I paused it in time so I don't think he was traumatized!lol
