Guillermo del Toro says art can't be done "with a f*cking app" and reveals "Pan's Labyrinth" was "the second worst filmmaking experience of my life. The first one being ‘Mimic’ with the Weinsteins." "I feel and I think, like the girl Ofelia in ‘Pan’s Labyrinth,’ if we can just leave a mark, if we can put our faith against our faith and our strength against our strength, there is hope. And the last thing we can have is to give to one of the two forces: we can give to love, or we can give to fear. Never, never, never give to fear.” variety.com/2026/film/festiv…
