Il Maestro

Rating: 10/10 (9 April 2011)

Dear Sr. Del Toro, Just a short note from the beyond, with words of praise for your Labyrinth. Please do not think me lacking in taste to perform such a salutation from my grave but we get to watch a great deal here, i could hardly pass up the opportunity to remark on your artistry.
I have made a number of films myself & the pleasure i felt from your piece of work was of considerable macabre & yet delicate delight. Indeed the shades here even sat with me as i watched, they were likewise enraptured. Some have gone on to watch some of my humble attempts.
I am keen that you find my expression as to the merits of your film sincere, forthright & honest. I am permitted to say that even from here, beyond that which is apparent, beyond the surfaces, i recognize beauty when i see it.
Please continue to create these authentic fairy tales and i look forward to speaking with you...one day.
Yours, for some time, Mario Bava
