The situation, which gets me to pacing and complaining so much I can't focus on the movie. I should try to watch 1 hour at a time, that might make it bearable.
Pan's Labyrinth manages to be a fairy tale *about* Spanish anarchists and fascists, that's one of the things I liked best about it. Its plot could have come from a fairy tale, Captain Vidal was the child-eating ogre, etc. Like the best stories, it showed people's weaknesses and strengths, and didn't hide from the blood.
