Daniel's Favorite Movies
El Laberinto del Fauno (Pan's Labyrinth)
R
I seriously only have one thing to say about Guillermo del Toro: brilliant. The imagery is some of the best i have ever had the opportunity to see and never have I been sucked into the lives of characters like was in this movie. Seriously one of the best films I have ever seen.

To be quite honest, I am stunned and a little outraged that Julianne Moore was not nominated for an Academy Award for this role. The performance that she delivers is one of my all time favorite performances from an actress. She played the role (based on an actual woman) with such charm that I am amazed she was overlooked. Nonetheless, her performance was spectacular and the story, (one of a wife and mother of ten) while sad and frustrating, at times left me smiling from ear to ear. Evelyn Ryan was a remarkable woman with a remarkable story, and Julianne Moore brought the story to life. It was brilliant.
