The Lighthouse
The Lighthouse is a 2019 film by Robert Eggers and it stars Robert Pattinson and Willem Dafoe. This movie takes place in the 1890s on an island close to New England. The two lighthouse keepers who go by Thomas Howard (Robert Pattinson) and William Dafoe (Thomas Wake) are maintaining their respective lighthouse. While on the island the 2 lighthouse keepers start to mentally go insane since they have been working on the island. They start to see hallucinations and fear that they will never step foot on a different set of grass. This movie is dark and its not scary in a way that most would imagine. There are no "scary monsters" its only 2 lighthouse keepers doing there job. What this movie does well in is exploring the human psyche and loneliness can mentally deteriorate a mans mental state. Dafoe's character was the first one to fall under the madness and soon after Robert Pattinson character falls into the mental trap. I personally think the shots in this movie were beaut...
