Quiz Cinema - Question 24*


*Our initial Question 23 was "Who is the author of the poem at the end of The Shape of Water?" Nobody got the correct answer, though; it seemed/seems the whole internet was/is looking for the right author, so we decided to replace Question 23. No one had been professional enough to look deep, but Matt Thrift, author at Little White Lies, did: the answer is/seems to be "buried deep in the closing credits" of the film, as it can be read in Thrift's review.

So, read Matt Thrift's review and answer the (same) question.

ANTICIPATION.

That trailer looks beautiful, but what are we getting?

Del Toro’s greatest work. Simply magnificent.

  1. Answer: Hakim Sanai. "Buried deep in the closing credits is an acknowledgement of the work of the 12th Century Muslim poet, Hakim Sanai, who is perhaps responsible for the film’s closing words. That Sufi spiritualism should inform The Shape of Water’s message of love and tolerance (in opposition to Strickland’s twisted biblical appropriations) comes as little surprise given its director’s wide pool of influences."

    João Paulo Amorim (11.º E), Inês Sousa (11.º B) and Carlos Nunes (11.º B) get 7, 5 and 3 points; all other 4 students score 1 point each.
