Del Toro's visually stunning and arresting fantasy harks back to the 1960s, where, in a secret research facility, a cleaner strikes up a relationship with the alien creature who is the subject of the
researchers' interest. Del Toro creates fantastic worlds imbued with deep human feeling. Sally Hawkins is so persuasive in bringing the world to life and making us really care about the hapless couple.
