After my father died in 2006, my mom and I lost ourselves in the films shown at a local discount theater. In this episode, I talk about Guillermo del Toro’s “Pan’s Labyrinth,” a movie I saw in that theater and one that left a lasting impression on me. This episode is deeply personal. It’s not just about “Pan’s Labyrinth.” It’s also about grief, mental illness, my love of cinema, and much more. It even features an interview with my mom. She’s making her very first appearance on the podcast! We talk about why films were such a comfort to us as we struggled to cope with our grief.
