guillermo del toro is an prior toer of the old-school movie-maker. he never lost the 12-year-old geeky fan boy within himself and i think that s why audiences can relate to his work so much. what you re seeing is the directors using established genres to do something that s actually very idiosyncratic and that you can make an intimate movie which is also a spectacle movie. alphonso caron is great doing that. he can make a movie on one hand like gravity which is incredibly spectacular, that has to be seen on the big screen, but in reality it s a very intimate human movie. i know. we re all going to die. everybody knows that. but i m going to die today. funny that you don t have to know.
