open a gap

The story is good, the filming was a little long and procrastinated, but there are many emotional points that still made me cry. . . The following contains spoilers, you can turn around if you mind. . . When I saw the time when the heroine was pregnant and was about to have a miscarriage, but had to climb up the lighthouse to find Tom in the wind and rain, I was anxious. The lighthouse caregiver should know how to use the lights to send signals. The heroine only needs to stay in the room. The lights are turned on and off, and Tom, who is looking at the lighthouse from time to time, will definitely find something unusual. . . Well, I know that the scene in the film that the heroine climbs the lighthouse in the heavy rain will make the audience even more visually shocked, and I also know that the woman is pregnant for three years. . . After watching the movie, I checked the location of the lighthouse, which is in Cape Cambull on the South Island of New Zealand, which I think can be included in my travel plan.

The Light Between Oceans quotes

  • [first lines]

    Tom Sherbourne: I'm just looking to get away from things for a little while.

    Mr. Coughlan: [sitting behind his desk] Well, it's no paradise out on that island. Just want to make sure you know what you're in for.

    Tom Sherbourne: All due respect, Mr. Coughlan, it's not likely to be tougher than the Western Front.

    Mr. Coughlan: Oh, you're probably right about that. You pay your own passage to every posting. You're a relief worker so you don't get holidays. I understand you're a single man. No family. So, that's a slight concern. Wouldn't normally send a single man to Janus. It's pretty remote and wife and family can be a great practical help, not just a comfort. But, seeing it's only temporary, you leave for Port Partageuse in two days. From there you'll be shipped off to Janus. Welcome to Commonwealth Lighthouse Service. Proud to have a man who served our country with such distinction amongst our ranks.

  • Isabel Graysmark: I can tell you lots about me. My mom taught me the piano.

    Tom Sherbourne: You still play?

    Isabel Graysmark: Not that well. My brothers used to tease me awfully when I played. I lost both of them - in the War. Just must be so confusing for my parents. I mean, if a wife loses a husband she becomes a widow, but if a parent loses a child there's no special label for it. You're still a mother or father. Even if you no longer have a child. Sometimes I wonder, if I'm still technically a sister now when my brothers are gone.
