Not lighthouses in other countries though, at least until he blows em up.

Allowing civilians free use of GPS satellites is a generous gift that America has offered the world, but it could be revoked on a whim, and I wouldn't put it past His Orange Tardness to be that spiteful.

Assuming you're seriousposting here, I really like it, one of my favorite movies in recent years. Also helps I'm a fan of Dafoe and his hog. That said, I see why not everyone can like it, especially because it's much more of a slow burn.

For starters the acting, both of them put on an amazing performance. I mean, that monologue followed by "alright have it your way, I like your cooking" is amazing.

I really loved some of the directional choices Eggman chose, like a nearly square aspect ratio, to give the feeling of claustrophobia alongside the characters. The constant slow roar of the horn throughout. A certain level of ambiguity to leave it up for interpretation in the story.

Lots of allusions and symbolism symbology throughout. A few of the allusions off the top of my head, Sisyphus, Prometheus, Proteus, The Raven, the Lighthouse being the concept of the Holy of Holies, among other references.

There's more too it and a lot to like but I also understand why people don't like it. There's a lot of little details to piece together that gives the story more cohesion and understanding.

if you want their acting, they have other films too

b&w is a gimmick, aspect ratio is a gimmick. not a fresh gimmick either. negger had nothing on his mind other than the comfy setting and the lead actors

rest of your comment is a schizoid rant

Dafoe's eyes must have been screaming at him.

It's a well-crafted experience that the creators cared about. Plus also it's weird and interesting. That's why I like it.

The nerds will talk about the colors and the aspect ratio. But homoerotic tension is where it's at.

It's not on my favourites list but it was nice to watch. It's not that art-filmy either, like there's a distinct plot to it and it's not all abstract nonsense
