From master story teller, Guillermo del Toro, comes THE SHAPE OF WATER - an other-worldly fable, set against the backdrop of Cold War era America circa 1962. In the hidden high-security government laboratory where she works, lonely Elisa (Sally Hawkins) is trapped in a life of isolation. Elisa’s life is changed forever when she and co-worker Zelda (Octavia Spencer) discover a secret classified experiment. Rounding out the cast are Michael Shannon, Richard Jenkins, Michael Stuhlbarg and Doug Jones.
Starring Sally Hawkins, Octavia Spencer, Michael Shannon, Richard Jenkins, Michael Stuhlbarg and Doug Jones
Directed By Guillermo del Toro
Produced By Guillermo del Toro, J. Miles Dale

Doug Jones is criminally underrated as an actor.

Until he decided to play The Bye Bye Man...

This film was like falling into a dream.

I just saw it on tv, I’m so glad I record it, so I can watch it back. It’s such a pretty dream 😍

[@prixiejynvallenas2826]

I know! 😉

[@caitlinjane92]

I took a look at some scenes from "Creature from the Black Lagoon" after watching this video so many times, and I gotta tell you, Guillermo's idea of reversing the roles of the hero and the monster in typical monster films has got to be pure genius. Let's face it, deep down we're more fascinated by fantasy/sci-fi creatures than we are afraid of them, and we know that the real monsters in the world are just humans who have the capacity to be cruel to others.

This movie made me fall in love with Sally Hawkins.

So fugly though

[@gregorymccoy6797]

I did not expect to enjoy this film as much as I did. Every character was masterfully played.

[@danidarkoxo]

This movie explains true love and the beauty of being an underdog in so many unfathomable, marvelous ways. Every shot established and each individual scene depict a raw emotion and idea with precision and grace. The viewers feel a deep connection to the film’s true heroes, and have a fear and sense of dread towards the villains. The love between Elisa and The Asset feels natural because of the wordless understanding and bond that the two share. No words needed to be spoken to show their love for one another, and Del Toro truly understood how vital that would be in a movie about romance and redemption. Each scene with them feels as if you’re witnessing an intimate interaction between a real life couple. It’s highly emotional and thought-provoking. The sheer desperation and sadness that Elisa felt to rescue The Asset was a tangible feeling of longing that many viewers can connect to. It’s an intimate, selfish and tender sensation that some people never have the joy of experiencing - the feeling of raw, true, sexual, and understanding love. One’s first love and a yearning to convey that feeling - and never truly finding the “right” ways to express it - is such a relatable and powerful feeling. Elisa is a hero without needing to explain it. It’s apparent in her actions and the feelings shown in her facial expressions. This film truly provides a deep look into what love between partners, friends, and families is like at its core. This movie moved me to tears at least 5 times in the theatre, and I’ll be crying to it again many times over when I am able to purchase it on DVD. Thank you Guillermo for this perfect film.

[@LacedWithOreos]

I love the part when Elisa starts signing 'f*ck you' at Strickland with a nonchalant face

[@akovacsrealtor]

"In this movie the humans are the monsters"....just like oftentimes in real life...Amazing movie in every way. A must watch!!!

[@LorraineGrant]

I've heard that said about 'King Kong', where at the end the men are trying to destroy Kong.

[@mknt5549]

Octavia was amazing in this. So was everyone else. It was a visual masterpiece

[@pudding4568]

i think the key to movie is Sally and Doug. i just love their chemistry. the way they "talked" in silence is just too pure and precious . they are awesome actor !! i love this movie . if you think this movie is about beastiality you are wrong !! take a look again and rewatch it !!

Srsly this movie is amazing. My favorite from this year so far. And the actress deserves an Oscar bc you could tell how she felt by just staring at her expressions.

[@jessicabelk771]

Yodeling PussyNutts listening to her speak just brings beauty to life!

The actors talk so passionately about their role, and the movie as a whole, and it's so refreshing. ♡

[@AB-ur9rq]

I got goosebumps watching this, even after I've watched the movie. Quite a masterpiece.

[@mauroorbegoso3818]

It's a metaphor: the "creature" native of Amazon (Latin countries), black woman, an homosexual (professor), the disabled person (deaf-mute woman). All of them against the race human's prejudice (white european man)

wow!! im inlove with him already😍😍😍😍

[@caitlinjane92]

Me too! You can tell just by Doug's acting that the Amphibian Man is an innocent, gentle creature. I love how Guillermo was inspired by the sea monster from "Creature from the Black Lagoon" to create this character and yet his role in this film is the complete opposite of the sea monster's role in that old movie. It's interesting to me how we went from being afraid of otherworldly creatures in movies to falling in love with them.

[@nigelcarren]

Unlike something like Fantastic Beasts I can see, that Sally is looking at the 'creature' right down-the-barrel, eye to eye. Like Narnia too, the talent was one foot away from eye-contact, and thus, the most important scenes in the film were killed stone-dead! Practical effects rule. That is why the world loved Buckbeak, and that is why this film worked as a love story. 🏆

[@tomatol0ver]

the writer/director of this film is genius! because if the lead character can speak..it will be a FULL different story..just imagine,HOW IN LOVE WOMAN SPEAKS.HAHAHA!!!***LOVE THIS FILM!***

Does anyone know if the animation was done with Maya? It really looks like it in those final clips that show the layering/masking. Shout out to who ever edited that together! I'm taking a class in 3D animation right now and this movie definitely has inspired me. The style and appearance of this amazing aquatic creature is exactly the kind of thing I've always wanted to make since I was little. Didn't think of myself as an animator before but this has real broaden my horizon of the future career wise.
