9: The Lighthouse

As March Madness begins, the Knights take a descent into madness in 2019’s “The Lighthouse”!

Writer/director Robert Eggers solidified his position as a filmmaker to watch out for in 2015’s “The Witch”. In his second directorial work, he presents audiences with a mercurial, deep, and allegorical tale of two men stranded on a lighthouse in the north Atlantic, that soon descend into madness. This film, deep in its mythological and arthouse roots, presents viewers not with just a passive story to observe on screen, but a challenging and vague tale of the high seas that requires active audience engagement to understand. Because of this way of storytelling, Eggers has delivered us a masterful piece of true cinema that demands to not simply be called a “movie”, but a “film”.
