Hope You Can Feel That Vibe

Dave Chappelle

"Mia is also a creature that is out of place in the world. Their wedding night is the Creature carrying her down the steps with the petals falling. Her dress was meant to evoke the bandages of Elsa Lancaster in the James Whale movie. So, the Bride is Elizabeth, and their love is impossible. It's a love that is impossible to think about six months later. That's what is beautiful, is in the brevity, she says, in its brevity has been made eternal. I think there is a beautiful marriage of the souls in this film. He gets a bride and loses her on the same day. They realize both they're alive and they die; their love dies shortly thereafter. I think it's one of the most poignant ways to address the Bride." — Guillermo Del Toro
