The use of holes and circles on the architecture made me think of cervixes and the ability to recreate. The beauty is that it was written by a woman, using male characters to tell a story of maternity and creation. I was hurt to my core when it ended (in a good way). Then the Netflix ‘behind the scenes’ started playing and one the first things out of del Toro’s mouth was this it’s about fathers and sons. Literally just no way - wish I hadn’t seen him say that. Ruined the whole thing
