The Orphanage
Guillermo del Toro’s latest movie is yet another fantastic journey
Guillermo del Toro’s new movie, “The Orphanage,” follows in the footsteps of his other movies. Â This is magic realism set in an orphanage where, as you’d expect, things are not what they seem.
In this film, the special effects take a back seat to the story, which is about a woman, who grew up in an orphanage, and her adopted son. Â And, even though the ending was apparent, to me, by the middle of the film, I was enthralled with the story, discovering the details of the causes for the plot and seeing the ending unravel.
This is a must-see film! Â You can visit the movie web site here.
