Guillermo del Toro's Pinocchio

The Basement Binge

Guillermo del Toro's Pinocchio | Animation Hall of Fav 3

Now an Academy Award Winner!!

I love stop motion, and I was expecting this to be the winner of Animation Hall of Fav, but now I'm not so sure. It is remarkable animation, a impressive and compelling adaptation of a classic story that tells a powerful message - these are all the things I love talking about on The Basement Binge, but something didn't quite click - until it did (about the end of the episode).

So, can Guillermo live up to my expectations for Pinocchio?

Academy Award®-winning filmmaker Guillermo del Toro reinvents Carlo Collodi's classic tale of the wooden marionette who is magically brought to life in order to mend the heart of a grieving woodcarver named Geppetto. This whimsical, stop-motion musical directed by Guillermo del Toro and Mark Gustafson follows the mischievous and disobedient adventures of Pinocchio in his pursuit of a place in the world.
