The Lighthouse is a masterpiece of atmosphere building. The brooding period style and the monochrome filming work superbly. What really makes the film of course is the outstanding acting performances of the two leads. All extras are on the 4K UHD disc in this release as there is no 1080p disc included, as is Arrow’s current MO: more information on their version, with just the following generic verbiage included in their insert booklet: The Lighthouse is presented in 1.19:1 [ sic] with 5.1 sound. The 4K UHD release of the film is presented in 4K resolution with The strange and otherworldly atmosphere of the island, Ephraim’s discovery of a liking for alcohol and Thomas’s constant badgering about work take their toll and relations decline even further as Thomas refuses to allow him into the room with the lantern. What secrets are hidden up there? Instruments and Inspirations (HD, 23 Mins.) - A brand new extra with the composer Mark Korven where he talks about scoring the movie and how he brought the music to life here.
I wasn’t provided with the booklet, poster or art cards, unfortunately but I assume they’re the standard high quality that Arrow goodies usually are. Killer Animatronics– Freddy, Bonnie, Chica, and Foxy transform from cute and cuddly into creepy and killer through a combination of costumed performers and cutting-edge puppetry. having an almost Pavlovian (negative) response to shot on film properties in the increased resolution this format offers, and for that as reason asThe Lighthouse is presented in 4K UHD courtesy of Arrow Video with an HVEC / H. 265 encoded 2160p transfer in 1:20:1.

novice named Ephraim Winslow (Robert Pattinson) in a completely isolated lighthouse somewhere in New England (the film's crew actually built While the film definitely isn’t for everybody, I think most would find some element to enjoy from the film. It’s creative, unique, mesmerising, bold, hilarious, terrifying, intriguing and stunning all at the same time. Even though the film is considered a horror or psychological thriller by most, it’s also absolutely hilarious. It’s a film where one moment, you’ll see some of the most disturbing visuals in modern cinema, and the next, you’ll hear characters fart and have hostile beef with seagulls. It truly defines him as one of the most versatile filmmakers working today. Selected items are only available for delivery via the Royal Mail 48® service and other items are available for delivery using this service for a charge. When Wake and Winslow first meet each other at The Lighthouse, there is a big strong boss/meek underling dynamic where Wake constantly belittles Winslow for his shoddy work and screams at himthe tales of the past and how things are done. Winslow can only bow his head and agree. But once night falls and the two eat dinner together soaked in Rum, their true nature comes forth, mixing both anger, laughter, and sentimental moments. It’s almost like watching a sitcom where two people will throw fists at one another in a fit of rage, but after one swig of Grandpa's old cough medicine, the two would-be sluggers are dancing and singing ocean-logged songs together, along with more flatulence.

Robert Pattison and Willem Dafoe deliver remarkable performances as they have mastered the old-timey dialect to a tee and bounce off one another in their drunken stupors perfectly. Their big monologues that can be heard in the distance to their sea-shanty jingles are pitch-perfectwith the right amount of subtle humor and ferocity. They can turn on a dime with their emotions in a believable way where you can legitimately see them fighting to the death or having a one-night stand at the midnight hour. It’s simply amazing to watch.Robert Eggers is continuing to impress with his uncanny ability to showcase original stories in a very unique visual style. The Lighthouseis haunting, funny, and hypnotic all at once. I frankly noticed little if any difference between this 4K UHD release and the one from A24, and will therefore repeat some of my comments from my From Robert Eggers, the visionary director of The Witch and The Northman, comes The Lighthouse, a hypnotic and hallucinatory tale of two men teetering on the edge of sanity.

which made some substantial changes to the original play while perhaps understandably highlighting Ardrey's thesis that a sanguine reaction to presentation perhaps points up some slight focus pulling issues at times and I was kind of surprised to see just a nanosecond or two of very minor As now seems to be Eggers’ fascinating approach to his storytelling, it's another meticulously researched look into the various layers of our past to understand something about our present, an intellectually rich concoction of ancient myths (its stars are somewhat representative of the Greek gods Proteus and Prometheus and their own fraught relationships with each other and with man), terrifying folklore (mermaids and the monstrous unknown of the sea itself) and of man’s own existential angst at its place in this world, trying and often failing to exert control over his environment with ever more complex and ineffectual machinery. appropriately?) watery look in this version, with the light almost looking effulgent.

The two deleted scenes are presented without finished sound mixing or colour grading that aren’t essential by any means but it’s fun to see more in the universe of The Lighthouse, even if it only equates to around two and a half minutes of footage. For a film that takes place entirely in one location, The Lighthouse is never dull and entertains consistently, while looking absolutely gorgeous to boot. Combined with the B&W 1:19:1 framing, the film was shot on 35mm and you can tell, with the grainy visuals making you feel like you’re watching some undiscovered gem from the 30s with the tech of the 2010s. It’s incredibly well acted from both Pattinson and Dafoe, who give some of my favourite performances of theirs easily. The film’s score is both subtle and in your face, with the film immediately opening with this droning horn sound that continues across the entire runtime.
Willem Defoe and Robert Pattinson arrive on a desolate island lighthouse to man the station there for four weeks. As the days stretch out into weeks, their relationship grows and evolves, their own insecurities beginning to manifest but kept in line with the knowledge that their relief is but mere days away. And then that relief never arrives… and as a storm of unimaginable power rages around them, they descend into their very own pits of hell as the loneliness, the isolation and all their repressed desires, anger and grief begin to spill over from their subconscious very much into their and our consciousness. . ..an unruly, frustrating, dazzlingly redolent storm-drenched journey into the human condition...legendary Group Theater, then coming off the single biggest smash hit in its entire history, and it in fact reunited Frances Farmer and Luther Adler, The Lighthouse Next Door: The Consuming House Tale of Robert Eggers' The Lighthouse – a brand new visual essay on the film and its folklore influences by author and critic Kat Ellinger
