Creating a lasting tension in film is a balancing act - there's an ebb and flow to the conflict your characters have to question. But what happens when those questions are answered and the meaning keeps evolving?
That's a huge part of the dynamic Willem Dafoe and Robert Pattinson create through our two main protagonists. They play two lighthouse keepers who are dealing with isolation in their own unique ways, and outside the elements of its genre, this movie is one that creates a discussion about that topic.
Like a reflection of Poseidon, Dafoe carries the weight of his character's responsibilities with the same strengths and weaknesses as the mythological god. And for a man in his mid 60's his physique sure rivals the God of The Sea too.
This is, without a doubt, one you must see. And the secrets spilled are ones you'll undoubtedly be mystified by.
