StoneKeeper's Summer Movie Guessing Game: I Recommend THIS Movie #1188 [Pan's Labyrinth (2006) Winner: Vastuntitled]


I have a movie in mind and you have to guess which one it is. For each movie you guess, I will give a hint that connects your guess with the movie I have in mind.

For each guess, a connection is posted. Example of connections: Actor, length, genre, aspect ratio, language, country, year, director, actor, writer in common, rating, number of votes, nominations. It can even be something like: both movies involve Cabbage Patch Kids. Also, you can use Metascore color or rating, Rotten Tomatoes score, any award wins or nominations in common, same number of words in the title, plot keywords. Note: "Plot" in the IMDB advanced search links to "Plot Summary" on the film's page. "Keyword" in the advanced search links to "Plot Keyword" on the film's page.

Helpful search engine: https://www.imdb.com/search/title/ Click on Feature Film and TV Movie. Then modify for the hints as they are posted.

Vastuntitled wins with Pan's Labyrinth (2006). Set in Franco's Spain in the 1940s, it's about a young girl named Ofelia whose mother takes her to live with her stepfather, a tyrannical officer in the Spanish army who's trying to wipe out the last of the republicans still resisting fascism in the mountains. Ofelia spends the movie trying to escape into an alternate fantasy universe in order to get away from the ugly world of fascist Spain. Very good movie.
