"You ain't even human no more."
Bleak and brooding, "The Lighthouse" is a study of the descent into madness of two lighthouse keepers, stranded beyond their original four week assignment, and despairing in the fate of their existence together. Thomas Wake (Willem Dafoe) and Tom Howard (Robert Pattinson) are alternately at each others' throats or gleefully imbibing their way into a state of stupor, at one point suggesting a homoerotic encounter, but quickly devolving into yet another fit of pique. Of the two, it's Pattinson's character who eventually experiences visions and nightmares as he goes about his daily chores, subservient to the demands of his nominal supervisor Wake. Cinematically, the picture reminded me of all those great black and white films of the Thirties and Forties emanating from the silent era. It even has a 'B' quality look, though the subject matter goes beyond the simplistic efforts of early film, and challenges the viewer with a myriad of interpretations one could assign to the story. That the fate of the two men ends so tragically is no wonder given the exposition, and you'll come away convinced that it's bad luck to kill a seabird.
gets too crazy
Two lighthouse keepers arrive at an isolated island for a four week stint. Newcomer Thomas Howard (Robert Pattinson) is a former Canadian lumberjack. Thomas Wake (Willem Dafoe) is an one-legged veteran seafarer. Howard has to do all the heavy duties, dreams of a mermaid, and hounded by a seagull. Demanding Wake warns him of various superstitions.
The first notable thing is the black and white photography with 1.19:1 aspect ratio. It is reminiscent of old timey movies dating back to the silent era. It fits very well with the mood and the setting. I like this up to the over-drinking. After that, the story gets crazier and crazier. I was expecting it to go supernatural. I can take some interspecies erotica. The Brokeback stuff comes out of nowhere. It becomes too experimental. The madness of the lighthouse booze is too much. The craziness dampens my enthusiasm a little bit.
Weird in a sense but good. Really good.

one question people, why it seems that the order of the movies in the page are constantly changing, for example i remembre that joker was posted like one month ago, but if you see in the description of joker it says it was uploaded only 4 days ago, i dont know whats happening
I really enjoyed this film, I was worried it would be artsy and obnoxious but it was the complete opposite. Very good.

Good old-school black- and-white thought-provoking film.
wicked flick....
Why'd spill y er seeds
I guess that if you look at this movie for the acting of Patterson and William Defoe I would give them a 10 but it is grim , I'm not sure what it was all about, I actually did at first but later on they totally lost me,, I have a read of a story were 2 men disappeared on a light house and were never found so any story is as good as any but I wish they had found something more interesting
the critics always love these boring old enghlish shit!!! PASSSSSSSS!!!!!
