                                                     Interview with
 Born October 9th in Mexico, Guillermo              Guillermo del Toro

  was raised by a strict Catholic family.
“Del Toro described his Roman Catholic
   upbringing as excessively "morbid,"
saying "I mercifully lapsed as a Catholic,
 I say, but as Buñuel used to say, "I'm an
 atheist, thank God."(Wikipedia, 2009). He was
 inspired by Dick Smith’s make up and
effects in his legendary film The Exorcist.       http://www.esplatter.com/profiles/toro.htm


 Del Toro’s father was kidnapped for 72
        days until ransom was paid.
Apprentice
 He started out working as a makeup supervisor
and formed his own company. Guillermo had his
   first big break when his film Cronos won 9
academy awards. After, he won the International
          Critics Week prize at Cannes.

Techniques - Style
Most of Del Toro’s films use religious relics and involve
 Catholicism. He uses amber as the dominant color in
movies. Insects or insect imagery is very much used in
movies of his. Also, the protagonists is usually a father
                         figure.

      novel, I take it very seriously."

                                       Reason over emotion is bullshit,
                                        absolute bullshit... We suffocate
                                       ourselves in rules. I find fantasy
                                                   liberating.
 I fabricate everything. There's not a single                      The horror story was birthed when we

  ultimately I'm very specific about [those                     telling scary stories to keep the children from
  details]. Context is everything in a fable,                   wandering off into the night. Today, there's
 because every story has already been told.                     nothing more cathartic for a guy in a three-
So the only variations I find are the voice of                    piece suit, someone super wound-up and
the storyteller and the context in which it's                     super-tight, to get on a roller-coaster of a
                     told.                                         horror film and scream like a madman.
Legacy - Influence
    Guillermo wants to bring
   horror to peoples lives. He
 wants to be different. Most of
 his films are original ideas. He
     doesn’t want to be just
        another director.
