Lighthouse



The duo of Dafoe and Pattinson is superb, the camera work is magnificent, monologues of a drunken captain in the spirit of Melville are well wrought. Allusions to the H. P. Lovecraft, Hitchcock's "Birds" and the Greek tragedy are well placed. And all that for what? To show two men on a desolate island to drink themselves into oblivion.
