The Lighthouse 2019

A really interesting, but not for everyone, genre mix thriller / horror / fantasy film with a grandiose harmonizing cast in the form of William Dafoe and Robert Pattinson.

The film was shot completely in 4: 3 black and white format, which corresponds to the earlier 1920s Hollywood films.

Because of this idiosyncratic format, the film appears very oppressive in its entirety, which captures the narrowness of the scene of a lighthouse island very well.

But even this format is not for everyone for almost two hours of film.

Furthermore, the dialogues, which deal a lot with the mythology of the seafarers, are not easy fare. Unfortunately, it is also one of those films that simply put the ending in a completely confused way and leaves the audience with many question marks.

But by and large, the film thrives on the two actors who stand out for their roles perform.

@wolfsmensch84 wait what? 4:3 is not for everyone? I watched 4:3 most of my life :)

Ah millennials.
