Two lighthouse keepers in New England during the 1890s keep each other company, trying hard to maintain some trace of mental balance.
A mesmerizing horror drama. Based on various accounts from real past events, The Lighthouse is practically an artistic reproduction of the act of going crazy in isolation and difficult living conditions. The story is very well written and efficiently maintained by the rapport of the two actors who impress again with very difficult and striking performances. Visually, although black and white on an aspect ratio of 1.19: 1, the film feels violent and very emotionally descriptive, tumultuous feelings of all kinds being the order of the day.
