Go see Pan’s Labyrinth*. Seriously.
Though one thing bugs me about it. The title “El Laberinto del Fauno” translated to “Pan’s Labyrinth” which would mean that “Fauno” would be “Pan” — but in the actual subtitles, they never once say “Pan” and instead call the creature “Faun.” This bugged me more than it should have.
Pan’s Labyrinth was one of about four movies that I wanted to see at TIFF but couldn’t on account of it selling out before individual tickets went on sale. The massively positive buzz that it received during the course of that festival further fueled my own preconceived hype. Well, it lived up to it. Great film.
* Protip: leave site open to listen to what seems like the entire soundtrack. I’m guessing bandwidth wasn’t a concern here.
Update: Good AP article on Pan’s Labyrinth.
Dude, I saw it on Monday afternoon, it was great! The visuals were fantastic. I, too, thought it was funny the English translation swapped “Pan” for “Faun.” The only thing that bothered me about the movie was the volume of the foley effects. Maybe it was the theater I was in, but the foley was cartoonishly loud. Or maybe it was a directorial decision. Dunno.
