12 Essential Movies Still To Come In 2019

12. The Lighthouse

A bold, scary and claustrophobic looking black and white effort from Robert Eggers; the director of the hit The Witch. The Lighthouse debuted at the Cannes festival earlier in 2019 and was immediately heralded as one of the highlights of the festival and will debut in theatres in the fall.

With the announcement of Robert Pattinson taking the reigns of the iconic Batman in the upcoming Matt Reeves picture, there have come some detractors of Pattinson. Heralding him as simply the guy from Twilight is a mistake. Pattinson has delivered some great performances, such as that in the film Good Time. The Lighthouse looks destined to add to that list and showcase Pattinsons true acting chops and talent further, even though he does not need to prove himself.

Couple Pattinson with an acclaimed performance from Willem Dafoe and a dark if not downright creepy and scary story, The Lighthouse looks to have boats of potential and is a film everyone should look out for in the coming months; particularly as we approach awards season.
