«La obra singular de Guillermo del Toro lo ha convertido en un cineasta clave de fin del siglo pasado y principios del presente.» -Del prólogo de Felipe Cazals En una amena conversación informal junto a su amigo Leonardo García Tsao, crítico de cine con una larga trayectoria, Guillermo del Toro recorre en estas páginas sus tempranas influencias, sus inquetudes infantiles y sus primeras aventuras creativas en Guadalajara; una historia de pasión juvenil que da paso a una de las carrreras cinematográficas más celebradas de nuestro tiempo. Desde la odisea que significó la filmación del cortometraje Doña Lupe, para la que él mismo tuvo que conducir, cargar y descargar el camión con el equipo de filmación, hasta la universal celebración de su más reciente filme, La forma del agua, somos testigos de la lucha, los obstáculos las alegrías y los obsesivos métodos de trabajo que hacen de Guillermo del Toro una de las mentes más singularmente auténticas del cine internacional, y somos recompensados con las pistas definitivas que unifican el imaginario de su universo fílmico. ENGLISH DESCRIPTION "Guillermo del Toro's singular work has made him a key filmmaker of the twentieth century and the dawning of this one." --From the foreword, by Felipe Cazals Within these pages, in a very enjoyable, casual conversation with his friend Leonardo García Tsao--experienced movie critic--Guillermo del Toro walks us through his early influences, his childhood troubles, and his first creative adventures in Guadalajara. It is a story of youthful passion that gives way to one of the most celebrated filmmaking careers of our time. Since the odyssey that meant making his short film Doña Lupe, in which he had to drive the truck, as well as load and unload all the equipment, to his latest and universally acclaimed film, The Shape of Water, we witness the struggle, the hurdles, the joys, and the obsessive work methods that make Guillermo del Toro one of the most singularly authentic minds in world cinema. We are now rewarded with the definite clues to the imaginary in his cinematic universe.Dimensions (Overall): 9.0 Inches (H) x 5.8 Inches (W) x .6 Inches (D)
