Personal Quote:
[at San Diego Comic-Con]: I fabricate everything. There's not a single real thing in Pan's Labyrinth (2006), because ultimately I'm very specific about [those details]. Context is everything in a fable, because every story has already been told. So the only variations I find are the voice of the storyteller and the context in which it's told. See more »Trivia:
Used to work as an orderly at a mental institution and would eat lunch in a morgue next to it. See more »Trademark:
His films frequently show an autopsy or have a scene set in a morgue. The autopsy is often performed on a non-human character. See more »Star Sign:
