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.  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.  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!  You can visit the movie web site here.
