Episode 6: Pan's Labyrinth

“Why didn’t you obey me?’ ‘To obey—just like that—for the sake of obeying, without questioning, that’s something only people like you can do, Captain.”

-Pan’s Labyrinth (2006)

For this week's episode of Del Toro Discourse, we'll be covering the masterpiece that is Pan's Labyrinth (2006). Listen to an extra-long, extra special discussion as we dive into the film's exploration of fairytales, fauns, fascism and rave over (yet again) Doug Jones' dedication to his dual role (which successfully scared the crap out of us). Hope you enjoy!
