Slagorð: Ævintýri á erfiðum tíma
Ofsalega falleg mynd sem minnir helst á ævintýrið um Fríðu og dýrið, nema fyrir fullorðna. Hún fékk nýverið tvö Golden Globe verðlaun, besti leikstjórinn og besta frumsamda tónlistin. Spennandi að sjá hvað gerist á Óskarsverlaunahátíðinni núna í byrjun mars en myndin fékk 13 tilnefningar. Óvenjuleg ástarsaga fyrir þá sem kunna að meta hugarheim del Toro.
Sagan gerist í Bandaríkjunum um 1962 og segir frá Elisu (Hawkins) sem er mállaus. Hún og vinkona hennar, Zelda (Spencer), vina næturvaktir sem skúringakonur á leynilegri öryggisgæslu ríkisins. Einhvers konar rannsóknarstofu þar sem einn daginn verða þær vitni að því að komið er með furðuveru til að rannsaka á stofunni. Richard (Shannon) klófesti veruna og bera ábyrgð á henni. Hann beitir hana miklu ofbeldi til að fá eitthvað út úr henni. Hins vegar myndast fljótlega tengsl á milli Elisu og verunnar. Upphefst spennandi en falleg saga um Elisu/Fríðu og Verunnar/Dýrsins.
Tag line: A Fary Tale for Troubled Times
A very beautiful film that reminds us of The Beauty and the Beast, but for grown-ups. The Shape of Water received two Golden Globe awards for best director and best original score. Interesting to see how the film will do at the upcoming Oscars Awards, it has 13 nominations. Unusual love story for those who enjoy the great mind of del Toro.
The story takes place in Baltimore ca. 1962 and is about Elisa (Hawkins) who is a mute. She and her friend Zelda (Spences) work the night-shift as janitors at a high-security goverment laboratory. One day they witness a strange creature brought to the laboratory. Richard (Shannon) caught the creature and is responsible for it. He torments it, trying to learn something about it. But Elisa and the creature start to bound and a compelling but beautiful story between Elisa/the Beauty and the creature/the Beast begins.
