“We should not be creating eye candy. We should be creating eye protein. It should be nutritious. It should have some weight to it… It should give you something about the character, it should immerse you in a motif. It should make you think. It should be beautiful, but it should also be meaningful.”

By film director and screenwriter Guillermo del Toro.
Guillermo often emphasizes the importance of visual storytelling that goes beyond mere aesthetics and serves a deeper narrative or thematic purpose in his works.
