- The film originated when director Gilmour Del Toro was 6 years old when he watched "Black Lake Demon".

- Director Gilmour Del Toro said that Sally Hawkins is not only the first choice of the heroine, but also the only choice, which is the script written specifically for her.
- In an interview with Mexican TV, Gilmour del Toro said that if the film failed at the box office, he might no longer be a director. However, he was promoted in 2006's "Pan's Labyrinth" and 2001's "Ghost Boy's Academy". I also said something similar.

(3) The heterochromatic version of "Angels Love Beauty". The atmosphere during the Cold War was very glamorous. Michael Shannon's performance was great. The plot advances quite fast, with a lack of thickness. I don't like the black and white singing and dancing section. It was originally a feeling beyond the world, and it is not rare to be crowned with sensuality. Scars turn into gills, which sounds romantic, but it is destined to be boring. Only if it is not my race, then the leap is moving. A kiss in the water, or not as good as "Fanatical Love".

Love is like the shape of water, which can hold all kinds of things. A very beautiful movie, like Pan's Labyrinth, is an adult fairy tale, but more gentle and romantic. It is also a story of people who are usually despised by the mainstream and regarded as marginal, joining hands to fight against oppression. Sally Hawkins played very well, very delicate, and the eyes in love are very attractive. Especially when she tried to persuade her friends with sign language, it was so touching. No wonder it is the favorite work of the top
