Movie Recommendation

We went to see Pan's Labyrinth yesterday, and it was a truly amazing movie. I'm still feeling sort of stunned by it. It was hauntingly beautiful and horrible and maybe the best movie I've ever seen. See Rodney's expression in my icon? That's how I walked around for the rest of the day.

Go, see it if it's playing anywhere near you!

Right now it's about an hour's drive. pbbbt.

Oh, I saw it a few weeks ago now and it was the best film I'd seen for ages. It really stays with you, the images from some of the scenes keep coming back to me now. And it was one of very few films ever to make me cry. It is gorgeous and awful and heart-rendingly sad, and just brilliant.

Isn't it though? I felt so shaken afterwards, it took me a while to recover. And the acting was fantastic. I can't believe the girl who played Ofelia was only 11, she's tremendously talented.

wow! the site looks great, I'll look out for that movie.

Visually, it's very amazing, too! And kind of gruesome in parts, but only tiny parts, and it was part of what made the story so effective.

I read a review of it that pretty much said what you said, but at much greater length. *g* It does sound very interesting, but oh! if only they would ever, in a blue moon, show something like that here. I may have to wait for the rent.

Oh, it's totally amazing, and I'm sure the reviewers said it much better than me. *g* It's a shame you probably won't get a chance to see it in a theater, though. The visuals are very, very cool!

Wow, the website is gorgeous. I'll make a note to remember to see it. Thanks!

It's definitely beautiful to watch, and horrifying, too.
