Two total losers work in a lighthouse at some remote end of the world location with constant atrocious weather.

These losers hate themselves and hate each other and have delusions and fantasies, so the ending is easy to predict.

That is all there is to the film....but hey...wait a moment....all sorts of secret meanings and symbolisms are meant to arise in this picture; but if you want to really know what they are you need to do a google search , etc etc. And even then it is confusing. No thanks, as many of us what to understand a movie in itself and not have to try to figure out some obscure interpretation what it all means, if anything. But clearly I am in a minority, as look at the high rating and awards for this nonsense. Showing once again you can fool most of the people most of the time.

And be warned: there is a very unpleasant and unnecessary scene of appalling cruelty to a sea bird in the story as well as some other highly unsavory incidents.

The only reason I give above the lowest rating is the brilliant cinematography; but even that cannot save this mess of a nasty movie:

3/10.
