[@yusefendure]

Alex Cohen is quite an effective interviewer. Her questions were succinct yet open-ended, provocative, and well constructed. This film is a classic. Eggers is brilliant young director. Pattinson gave a career defining performance, but Willem Dafoe stole the show, had his cake, and ate it too. The cinematography by Jarin Blaschke was next-level. Outstanding job done by the entire cast and crew.

[@RyanKaufman]

I find Pattinson's comments on Dafoe with rehearsal deeply relevant. To him, he had no idea. Dafoe was totally comfortable. That's exactly the characters, one is experienced and just doing his thing, the other is trying to find his way and is totally lost by the end.

[@ChucksterOLove]

I just saw 'the Lighthouse' last night and I was enthralled. Dafoe and Pattinson BOTH deserve Academy Award nominations for best actor and best supporting actor. Amazing performances by both men, mesmerizing... You could pass this off as a simple retelling of the story of Prometheus, but it is so much more. There are so many different angles you could view this movie from. I even have my own unique theory... that Thomas was an older version of Thomas (Winslow). You need to see this movie if you haven't. It was amazing, a must see...

[@d33pakkkk]

Wow that really blew my mind - the fact that Thomas is the younger version of Thomas! I mean all signs point to that.....

[@eatfugu]

Interesting theory but I doubt it since Eggers said in this video that the original story he was inspired by had two lighthouse keepers named Thomas. That’s more likely the reason for the names.
