Guillermo del Toro Says “Artisanal Beauty” Of Stop-Motion Was Only Way To Make ‘Pinocchio’ – Contenders Film: The Nominees

Stop-motion screams hand-made and screams hand-carved and painted, del Toro said.

There is an artisanal beauty to that and there is a magic to seeing these puppets.

I prayed for a miracle, I got a miracle but I dont recognize the miracle.

The movie could be calledThe Adventures of Geppetto.
