The Lighthouse features two very strong performances from both Willem Dafoe and Robert Pattinson in this beautifully shot movie.
It's as if this footage has just been unearthed after a century mouldering in a Scandinavian documentary film archive.
Channeling elements of German Expressionism, Franz Kafka, Herman Melville and a wild dollop of Greek mythology, this tale of isolation and insanity, is an ambitious and unheralded cinematic joy to behold
At least Pattinson and Dafoe's admirably invested work will linger, two actors losing themselves just a little bit as their characters lose it all.
Dafoe, especially, digs his maw deep into Eggers' stylishly, flavorfully archaic dialogue, in a performance that suggests a live-action version of the sea captain from The Simpsons.
thumbs up A+ great film
Probably the most delightful thing about The Lighthouse is that it gives Willem Dafoe the role of a lifetime
The actors are great, but why they chose to make this piece of **** I have no idea. I wish I could scrub it out of my head, it was a stinking pile of dog crap.
Dark and boring. Nothing worthwhile about it and it's sad these 2 actors are now resorting to garbage movies.
Just totally bizarre was like the guy who wrote it was trippin on some of the good stuff 2out of 10and i like those 2 actors
