Autism & Guillermo del Toro

While some light research of "Guillermo del Toro autism" doesn't get many results, other than complaints and praise for The Shape of Water, it is apparent that many of his characters are autistic.

Aurora || Cronos (1993)

Aurora is near-mute, but has a lot of agency despite this. She isn't afraid to kill a bug or help Jesus defeat De la Guardia. In fact, she's the main heroine of our story, despite her silence. She shows intense feelings, especially of love for her grandfather, shown in scenes such as where she reaveals shes ripped the head off her beloved teddy bear to put the Cronos device inside. She's incredibly smart for her age and very capable, but I believe her (maybe not optional, but definitely not permanent) silence is vindictive of her autism. I cannot figure out what her special interest would be, though.

Chuy || Mimic (1997)

Chuy is another one of Guillermo del Toro's strong children. Shown first playing spoons incredibly skillfully and crafting creatures out of wire, Chuy has unique interests. He can tell the exact type of shoe down to the size because of his grandfather, and he has the ability to perfectly mimic the Judas' cry. He's nearly silent but not always, and he seems unaware of the rules of the world, leaving his home and entering the subways seemingly unaware of the danger. Upon watching a man get sucked into a gutter, he barely reacts. One pivotal scene showing his autism would have to be when he's trapped in the elevator shaft and has a meltdown. He also speaks in a somewhat unique manner. His special interests are obviously playing spoons and shoes.

Ofelia || Pan's Labyrinth (2006)

Ofelia is yes another child character who shows a lot of agency, going against what practically everyone tells her to follow her own path. But she's also very bookish, obsessed with her fairytales so much she believes anything the fantastic tells her. She crawls through the mud and talks back to adults, keeping a somewhat quiet demeanor otherwise. I believe her special interest is fairtales.

Newt || Pacific Rim (2013)

Not a child, but worth mentioning anyways, is Newt. He's obsessed with Kaiju, to the point of drifting with one multiple times (and eventually.. living with one?). He speaks fast and erratically, he knows every indexical fact about Kaiju, and he's obviously insanely smart. He's, however, balanced by his childlike wonder at everything. His love for kaiju is, of course, his special interest.

Hope you enjoyed my analysis! I'm missing plenty of characters simply because I haven't seen his full repertoire yet! But as an autistic person, I love to find it in everything else!

Wow, Guillermo del Toro really said You know what my animated kid's musical needs? Catholicism. War. Death. Alcoholism. Fascism. Frankensteinian undertones. A haunting meditation on mortality and grief. Cate Blanchett making monkey noises. And he was so fucking right

#i really shouldn't be surprised after Pan's Labyrinth and like basically every one of his other films but #Pinnochio was extremely good y'all #and the making-of was incredible too - just the LOVE and CARE that was poured into the overall look and design is just??? #im frothing at the mouth. i love stop-motion so much #pinnochio netflix #guillermo del toro #ANIMATION IS A MEDIUM NOT A GENRE AND THE STORIES IT CAN TELL ARE SO FUCKING COOL

I started thinking of cool creature designs and that made me think of the Faun from Pan's Labyrinth and...anyway I'll take inspiration in an art block slog where I can and Guillermo del Toro's work is a pretty good place to look I think

My Top 10 films as a film student (SPOILERS)

Me and my L taste in films

Final Destination(2000)-actually a decent horror films,actually made me jump

The Breakfast Club(1985)-the montage is iconic as fuck,the film had some amazing lines and it was an easy watch

The Basketball Diaries(1995)-one of the only films that actually made me sad,the cinematography was iconic

Pan's Labyrinth(2006)-I watched it as part of my A-Level and I know why. It's a masterpiece a vague shitty fairytale

Trainspotting(1996)-Once again,a film that I study for A-Level film and it's amazing. The plotline and quotes are amazing. Moreover,the editing is iconic.

Dead Poet's Society(1989)-When Neil killed himself,it made me so sad. But the plotline is so sweet and stan Todd for clear skin

Romeo and Juliet(1996)-Boom. I became Even from Skam.

La Haine(1995)-ARGGHHH! JUST ARGGGHH! The ending did surprise me though. It also helped me a bit with French A-Level

The Lost Boys(1987)-Vampires are now awesome. Also,my mum said that Even from Skam looks like he would be in Lost Boys.

Thirteen(2003)-Can we talk about how the lighting changes from light to dark as we see Tracey fall further into her teenange rebellion?
