"This movie particularly took me to do things I was very afraid of," Del Toro told fellow filmmakers at the Beverly Hilton in Beverly Hills. "It was a movie that was full of many reasons why it shouldn't work, and those are the reasons why it works. ""The Shape of Water" was nominated for seven Golden Globes in January, eventually taking home two, and was awarded best picture by the Producers Guild. It is up for 13 Oscars.Alexandre Desplat, the movie's Oscar-winning composer, told AFP on the red carpet of his "amazing relationship" with Del Toro, describing the director as "so generous, passionate, and inspiring. In this business things don't get going right when you want them to, they get going when everything aligns."
