Pan's Labyrinth/Tear Jerker


 * The ending is supposedly happy, with Ofelia.
 * Of course, it could be worse, since there's another way to interpret the ending. But that puts the whole thing squarely in Downer Ending territory.
 * Word of God, thank heavens, officially denies the "All Just a Dream" interpretation, and says that everything in the film is real, including the last scene.
 * Let's be honest here - just hearing the Leitmotif of the hummed nursery rhyme is enough to get a person who's seen the movie teary-eyed.
