was just curious as to who had seen this movie here.
i know many of us are film buffs but ive heard very little around the community about this.

I just saw it the other night myself and fell in love with it. There is no doubt in my mind that its been my favorite film of 2006.

For those who had seen the movie, i pose a question to you.

[SPOILER ALERT!!!!]








what is your opinion on the faun, book and fairies? were they all just in her imagination or were they a part of reality?
i was of the belief that they were in her head at first until my brother pointed out the fact that they must have been a part of reality for the simple fact that the root was found under the bed and had a significant effect when burnt, as well as the fact that the bleeding book told the future of her mother's complications at birth (which we then see when she goes outside to find her mother bleeding).

however it doesnt explain the fact that the captain cannot see the faun at the end of the movie. or why the little girl is dead at the end and not in her kingdom reigning as princess.

any thoughts perhaps?









[END OF SPOILER!!!!]


I must say that anyone who wants to see a truely beautiful movie must check this out. Of course its not suitable for a younger audience and if your squimish during scenes with violence or mutilation you may not find it your cup of tea. But in the end i think it must be experienced by all.

FYI, its subtitled.

here's the trailer for those who are interested.
