At the movies with Guillermo del Toro: “The Mexican director is receiving a BFI Fellowship for his prolific body of work straddling fantasy and gothic horror, as well as his unstoppable endeavours to support the wider film culture. Here he retraces the roots of his cinephilia, extolling little men, ecstatic monsters and his holy trinity of Hitchcock, Buñuel and Fellini.” - BFI Sight and Sound
