⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️¡Introduction!⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

I think this story is really interesting, it has a duality between fiction and reality that makes it so characteristic, it is a narrative that traps you with the feelings and desires of each character, it traps us with a sweet girl who from her naivety wants to escape from the reality in which she finds herself.

--
I must admit that at the beginning it was a little slow but it is worth it if you watch it carefully, it touches some situations of real history as Franco's victory after the Spanish civil war and that makes it really interesting if you are attracted to the subject of Franquistas and Republicans.

considero que su historia es realmente interesante, posee una dualidad entre ficción y realidad que la hace tan característica, es una narración que te atrapa con los sentimientos y deseos de cada personaje, nos atrapa con una dulce niña que desde su ingenuidad desea escapar de la realidad en la que se encuentra.

Debo admitir que al inicio se me hizo un poco lenta pero vale la pena si se ve con atención, toca algunas situaciones de la historia real como lo es la victoria de Franco después de la guerra civil española y eso la hace realmente interesante si te atrae el tema de Franquistas y Republicanos.

⭐️⭐️historical perspective in the film⭐️⭐️

1944, Spain convulses in a period of social conflict, groups of anti-Francoist guerrilla fighters infiltrate the forests of the country, encouraged by the advances of the Allied factions against the Axis powers, the hard attacks that provoked the Soviet, English and American ranks on the Fascists create a mood among the Republican fighters, composed mostly of young men, with no military training other than their desire to fight against a dictatorial and totalitarian regime, in the movie is countered by a cruel and sadistic captain named Vidal, who had no qualms about disregarding any kind of honor or respect for human life, no longer out of necessity, but because of his love for torture and murder, no matter who it was.

1944, España se convulsiona en un periodo de conflicto social, grupos de guerrilleros antifranquistas se infiltran en los bosques del país, alentados por los avances de las facciones aliadas contra las potencias del Eje, los duros ataques que provocan las filas soviéticas, inglesas y americanas sobre los fascistas crean un estado de ánimo entre los combatientes republicanos, compuestos en su mayoría por hombres jóvenes, sin más formación militar que su deseo de luchar contra un régimen dictatorial y totalitario, en la película es contrarrestado por un cruel y sádico capitán llamado Vidal, que no tenía ningún reparo en despreciar cualquier tipo de honor o respeto por la vida humana, ya no por necesidad, sino por su amor a la tortura y al asesinato, fuera quien fuera.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️Personal analysis⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Pan's Labyrinth is a cruel story, severely set in the rawness of a war that suffered the last century, being one of the best known historical turning points for Spain and the world, however, the film focuses its narrative in a world inhabited by fairies, fauns and fantasy kingdoms, where an 11 year old girl maintains a close relationship with two opposing worlds; the one of fantasy and the one of a world dominated by a fascist captain who tortures, murders and violates whomever he pleases, although neither of the two worlds is disconnected, both are equally valid and viable in the story.


"El Laberinto del Fauno " es una historia cruel, severamente ambientada en la crudeza de una guerra que sufrió el siglo pasado, siendo uno de los puntos de inflexión históricos más conocidos para España y el mundo, sin embargo, la película centra su narración en un mundo habitado por hadas, faunos y reinos de fantasía, donde una niña de 11 años mantiene una estrecha relación con dos mundos opuestos; el de la fantasía y el de un mundo dominado por un capitán fascista que tortura, asesina y viola a quien le place, aunque ninguno de los dos mundos está desconectado, ambos son igualmente válidos y viables en la historia.

The characters are the creation of a director who is known for his ability, his creativity and characteristic world, which makes him especially unique, the fact that the captain can be hated to the point of fearing him as a spectator, or that one can empathize with that rebel asking for clemency for his death, is the product of a prodigious mind, the main characters feel alive, real, even when fantasy aspects are taken, reality can be cruel, both in the fantasy created by Del Toro as in the reality that happened in the 40's in Spain, and this is not bad, but quite the opposite, the story of how an 11 year old girl creates a fictional world, to escape her own is something that often happens, and more when it takes place within a context of war, being in a front with a group of people, who care little about anyone's life.


Los personajes son la creación de un director que se caracteriza por su capacidad, su creatividad y su característico mundo, que lo hace especialmente único, el hecho de que se pueda odiar al capitán hasta el punto de temerle como espectador, o que se pueda empatizar con ese rebelde que pide clemencia por su muerte, es el producto de una mente prodigiosa, los personajes principales se sienten vivos, reales, incluso cuando se toman aspectos de fantasía, la realidad puede ser cruel, tanto en la fantasía creada por Del Toro como en la realidad que sucedía en los años 40 en España, y esto no es malo, sino todo lo contrario, la historia de cómo una niña de 11 años crea un mundo ficticio, para huir del suyo propio es algo que sucede a menudo, y más cuando se desarrolla en un contexto de guerra, estando en un frente con un grupo de personas, a las que poco les importa la vida de nadie.

The ending is sad, as well as reassuring, with the military dead, Ofelia offering her life in exchange for the life of someone who could not defend herself, arriving to the same world she had created, but at the same time, an uncertain future for a woman who has just been left with no one, with nothing, who now has a baby to take care of and a girl to forget, and that the latter has died at an extremely young age. Undoubtedly, this story is as cruel as it is beautiful, in a particular way.

El final es triste, a la vez que tranquilizante, con los militares muertos, Ofelia ofreciendo su vida a cambio de la de alguien que no podía defenderse, llegando al mismo mundo que había creado, pero al mismo tiempo, un futuro incierto para una mujer que se acaba de quedar sin nadie, sin nada, que ahora tiene un bebé que cuidar y una niña que olvidar, y que esta última ha muerto a una edad en extremo temprana. Sin duda, esta historia es tan cruel, como bella, de un modo particular.

Pans Labyrinth is a great film, not only for the plot and fantastic journey the young protagonist go through, but also for the visual mastery.

Great pick. :)
