"The Lighthouse" Personal essay on watching movies, non-serious movie reviews, if you don't like it, don't spray the movie. After watching the movie, I was stunned, a little scared, and had a feeling that I couldn't tell, so I talked about something else, such as the two main characters. His superb acting skills are so superb that I don't believe this is the male protagonist who played Twilight before? It's so fun to watch, but I still don't want to use the word burst, I just think they're too hard! The movie is black and white, the characters are angry, the plot is vague, the only thing that impresses me, besides the acting, is the sound, the piercing mermaid calls, the roar of the waves crashing against the rocks, the thunderstorms, etc., yes Now, there is also the dialogue between the two protagonists. Not only is the voice deafening, but the content is also unprecedentedly fragrant. The witty words are full of eloquence, and the mouth is dirty. It is possible to scold people like this. You say that you are uneducated and uneducated. I absolutely do not believe it. Watching Xing Ye's "Nine Pins of Sesame Official" is just the same, why pay so much attention to details and these seemingly boring dialogues? Because I didn't quite understand the plot of the movie, hhh, it's not like a stream of consciousness, it's more like a fable! Although I didn’t understand the movie, I still liked the movie. I said earlier that he gave me a feeling, and when I remember it, it was a sense of loneliness. I don’t know if it’s right to say that, but the movie gave me the most intuitive feeling. Two people or one person is guarding a lighthouse on an island. From the ordinary conversation at the beginning to the hysteria at the back, there may be other reasons, such as the temptation of the lighthouse, or mutual distrust, but the feeling of loneliness , I can feel that taste through the screen! From my superficial understanding, I think what the director wants to express is very abstract and can be interpreted from many angles, and my focus is on Robert Pattinson. It's obviously starting to become stronger. All of this is the setting of that MacGuffin. What did he see in the lighthouse? The sound of my house is broken. This kind of discomfort is different from other horror films. The fear in your bones surrounds you all the time. There is no particularly scary scene, but it is in this unknown scene from beginning to end. In fear, do not know what will appear in the next scene? The existence of the old captain is very strange. In the end, he said it himself, are you wondering whether I really exist or is it just a fantasy in your consciousness? Robert Pattinson's character grew up around lighthouses, around fantasies, and I've been waiting for an answer, an answer that dawned on me, but at the end, I just saw him lying alone on the reef, torn apart by a few seagulls With internal organs, isn't this what happened to Prometheus? The lines that come to mind are the words of the captain, every seagull is dead water Soul of the hand, you will be condemned! Perhaps, apart from living in groups and the fear of the unknown, people are destined to become walking dead! PS: There are a lot of sexual hints in the film. What do the sexual symbols mean? unknown

The Lighthouse quotes

  • Thomas Wake: Keepin secrets eh?

    Ephraim Winslow: No sir

  • Thomas Wake: Yer fond of me lobster aint' ye? I seen it - yer fond of me lobster! Say it! Say it. Say it!

    Ephraim Winslow: I don't have to say nothin'.

    Thomas Wake: Damn ye! Let Neptune strike ye dead Winslow! HAAARK!

    Thomas Wake: Hark Triton, hark! Bellow, bid our father the Sea King rise from the depths full foul in his fury! Black waves teeming with salt foam to smother this young mouth with pungent slime, to choke ye, engorging your organs til' ye turn blue and bloated with bilge and brine and can scream no more - only when he, crowned in cockle shells with slitherin' tentacle tail and steaming beard take up his fell be-finned arm, his coral-tine trident screeches banshee-like in the tempest and plunges right through yer gullet, bursting ye - a bulging bladder no more, but a blasted bloody film now and nothing for the harpies and the souls of dead sailors to peck and claw and feed upon only to be lapped up and swallowed by the infinite waters of the Dread Emperor himself - forgotten to any man, to any time, forgotten to any god or devil, forgotten even to the sea, for any stuff for part of Winslow, even any scantling of your soul is Winslow no more, but is now itself the sea!

    Ephraim Winslow: Alright, have it your way. I like your cookin'.
