The Shape of Water | Full Movie | Movies Anywhere

There is no subtlety whatsoever. You can practically hear del Toro beating his pulpit through much of Shannon’s dialogue.

With a narrative that resonates in unexpected ways, the film offers a showcase for the talents of its stunning ensemble cast, especially Hawkins, who embodies innocence without becoming a symbol or losing her humanity.

The Shape Of Water is another success for Del Toro, who has yet to received a Best Director nomination at the Academy Awards but looks to be on his way to his first. A film that should be looked at and appreciated for its beauty and message.

An unadulterated celebration of classical romance, monster movies, and the captivating sorcery of filmmaking.

This intoxicating burst of goodness celebrates connection, the space in-between, the silence of it, a quiet reading of heartbeats, the way we dance inside.
