    Hello and welcome to another Movie reaction video!
    Well well well,
    A few things...
    I put the Disclaimer at the beginning of the video because, although it is obvious from my reaction that this is now one of my favourite films, I didn't know enough about the mythology it was representing. I discussed it with a friend for hours after and she knows a lot more about that kind of stuff.
    After this conversation I appreciated this film so much more that I felt the disclaimer at the beginning was necessary.
    I want to delve into the film a bit more so will probably upload a commentary sometime in the future.
    But yeah, I hope you like the reaction and can bear with me as I constantly talk about the cinematography and other elements of this film while missing vital information. I am a sucker for the technical sometimes.
    Hope you are all well!

    ADDITIONAL DISCLAIMER: In the first Disclaimer I write the nonsense word oliviousness... This is meant to mean obliviousness. Thank you for your time

    William Dafoe's performance in this is possibly the best I've ever seen from anyone in any modern film. He's incredible in this.

    I love this movie so much, even the first time I watched and didn't get everything, still is such an unique experience.

      I knew I loved it, I just didn't know why at first

    So happy you reacted to this. No one I know liked or could appreciate it, so it was nice getting your take on it. Was definitely a work of art. Thanks for the great reaction!

    They built a lighthouse for this film like 6 hours away from where I live in Canada. I don't know if it's still up but I know everyone in the area didn't want it to be torn down. They even got someone to build a beacon from that era that haven't been used forever for the last shot where Pattinsons completely lost in the light and burning his hands.

    This movie is a masterpiece! A shame the major awards neglect films like this...i'm a fan of most A24 films!
    Also, I see you like Hannibal, just curious if you're a fan of the show Dexter and if you know about the new season? Reactions to that would be cool!

    • @WatchMeMovie
      @WatchMeMovie  2 ปีที่แล้ว

      I watched Dexter for at least the first 5 seasons and eventually just lost track, but I heard John Lithgow waas making a return so might pick it back up at some point.

    Yeah, this movie is incredible, glad you enjoyed it! Never heard of the golden triangle ratio before, that was a neat overlay.

    • @WatchMeMovie
      @WatchMeMovie  2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      It really is, yeah they used it so well throughout this film

      Yes, found that fascinating. Would love to see more “inside filmmaking “ techniques highlighted.

    excellent reaction. i appreciated your insights on the cinematography. i wonder what you’d think of “the northman”.

    Thrilled that you reacted to this, I knew you’d appreciate it, and that you did. For the inverse role by Willem Defoe, please check out the Florida Project, a masterpiece of naturalistic acting, one of the very best American films of the last decade. Where this film is entirely formal and black and white, it is a riot of colour and improvisation, but no less a collection of unforgettable compositions, and emotion.

    • @WatchMeMovie
      @WatchMeMovie  2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Beautifully put Ron. Yeah I couldn't say enough about this film and am still thinking about it. Thanks for the recommendation, I have heard of that one

  • @lc3920

    I would love to see your insights on Picnic at Hanging Rock (1975). It’s not very well known but I think it’s an amazing example of atmosphere and subtle horror.

    • @lc3920
      @lc3920 2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Also The Innocents (1961) for similar reasons.

    Yo, you get a like just for that disclaimer. I don't know ish about none of that and i still love this movie!

    • @WatchMeMovie

    Watch a thing, research what you may not understand, then watch it again with a deeper understanding. No criticism to you for that. The only way to never be wrong is to never express an opinion. And a misspelling? Join 99.9% of the rest of TH-cam. Enjoyed your reaction, as always.

      Bloody hell Ryan you don't half pick em, lol ...It's a master class in noir and just painful self examination. William dafoe is clearly deep down a Morbid Yorkshireman Effed up and wishin he was born in Lancashire!.. ;)

      @@WatchMeMovie Looks like the Cinematographer is a student of Vladimír Smutný. ...Black and white can be very effective when used properly. The Painted Bird also being a good example. It kind of goes hand in hand with the bleakness of the story.
