Pan's Labyrinth has to be one of the most interesting movies that deals directly with a child's mind. The only other movie that can compare to this is "Where the Wild Things Are". Ivana Baquero, the main character, showed how a child's mind blocks things out by making imaginary scenery to deal with emotional issues. In this movie, the main character is traumatized by a series of events and in turn sees creatures that direct her to leave the human world entirely. By doing so, she would leave war and poverty behind. Throughout certain scenes, you are able to see the plot progress as the creatures lead her towards exactly what she wants. During the "serious" scenes where human characters were involved, there was plenty of room throughout the shooting area. That being said, the "hallucinations" so to speak, have very artistic scenery such as twisted tree branches and immensely colorful leaves. In film this works very well, however on stage the "hallucinations" would be the only one that would work well. In summation, the combination of everything I've talked about here really ties this movie together with twists and turns that have signification meaning to not only the plot, but the girl's current situation. I would recommend this movie to almost anyone I know.
