Pan’s Labyrinth
Wow okay. I saw Pan’s Labyrinth at a special screening yesterday; what a movie. It’s amazing that it actually won all those Oscars, because it seems so unamerican. It definitely feels like a sort of movie which would never have been posible to do in the US, but more power to the Mexicans for that, I guess.
Pan’s Labyrinth is poetic, cruel, beautiful, terrible, amazing, and grim. It’s a war movie and a fairy tale. And it’s definitely not for children. It’s the most equilibristic allegory I have ever seen. You should go see it, if you can.

According to IMDB it will not be released over here, also, it’s apparently not yet released over there as well: http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0457430/releaseinfo
But I can still get it for 14 quid on DVD, maybe I’ll check it out (I still have some discounts over there): http://www13.cd-wow.com/detail_results_2.php?product_code=1857351&subcat=region2
