Guillermo del Toro returns to the big screen to bring us the latest iteration of the classic tale of Pinocchio, this time in stop-motion form. Now in theaters and on Netflix, del Toro brings a new visionary approach to a story that has been adapted multiple times, yet manages to bring new life through the precision handicraft he brings to the stop-motion approach. We also discuss news surrounding year end lists from various critic groups including the new 2022 Sight & Sound Greatest of All Time, cast our predictions for 3 more Oscar categories (Song, VFX, and Sound), and look at the recently announced Sundance 2023 festival lineup.
