. But upon closer inspection, Eggers’ films work as companion pieces, with the woods surrounding a New England homestead in the 17th century and the sea surrounding a 19th-century lighthouse both hiding a strange and supernatural light within their centers. One leads to ascension and the other to downfall: transcendence and madness found within the light.
The lighthouse serves as a waypoint for sea lore, gods and devils of all sorts, each of whom become represented by Wake. The one-eyed seagull, never seen on screen with Wake, could be viewed as a manifestation of Odin, the one-eyed Norse god associated with wisdom, death and frenzy. Ephraim also sees Wake, whether real or imagined, take the form of a Siren and Neptune, god of the sea. Both of these figures stem from Greek and Roman myths.
Can someone just tell me what happened to Eggers’ Nosferatu ?
I enjoyed both films , both feel more like metaphors and blind alleys that you drink in and experience
YES!!!!! Exactly! Can't wait to see this.
I think both of the actors in The Lighthouse movie are talented. I just thought the movie was awful.
Does The Witch take place during the Salem Witch Trials?
misshotcakes Probably worth a read once you've seen The Lighthouse.
