Mexican-born filmmaker Guillermo del Toro celebrates his 62nd birthday today!

🎥 Now known for his distinctive style, and his love of sympathetic "monsters", del Toro began experimenting with his father's Super-8 camera to create short films when he was around 8-years old.

🎥 After the success of his 1993 feature film debut, del Toro was offered a large budget to produce the 1997 science fiction horror "Mimic". Disagreements with studio executives led him to avoid Hollywood productions until his return in 2002.

🎥 del Toro has always prioritized practical effects & sets, the use of special effects makeup, and inventive character design. All of these facets of his work are featured in some of his most universally loved films - "Pan's Labyrinth", "The Shape of Water", and "Frankenstein".
