Hey everyone, I watched Guillermo del Toro’s Pinocchio (2022) this weekend, and admittedly, Pinocchio was one of those childhood stories I was never as familiar with. Honestly, the only version of Pinocchio I know was from Shrek, BUT after watching this film…LOVE HIMMM!

But the point of this post was that for historical context, the beginning of this film is set during the Great War… I just felt the need to share that and it is worth the watch! I also did a bit of a historical deep dive after watching the film of the original story. Please if you have any thoughts on this film or the original story, please share!
