Winslow is bothered by a one-eyed gull, but Wake warns him against killing it under the superstitious belief that gulls are reincarnated sailors.

During his stay on the island, Winslow begins to hallucinate sea monsters and logs floating in the sea, and masturbates to the mermaid on the scrimshaw.

Winslow observes that, every night after ascending the lighthouse, Wake disrobes before the light. Wake immediately proves to be very demanding, subjecting Winslow to taxing jobs such as emptying chamber pots, maintaining the machinery, carrying heavy kerosene tanks up the stairs, and painting the lighthouse, while barring Winslow from the lantern room. In his quarters, Winslow discovers a small scrimshaw of a mermaid and keeps it in his jacket. In the 1890s, Ephraim Winslow begins a four-week stint as a 'wickie' ( lighthouse keeper) on an isolated island off the coast of New England, under the supervision of former sailor Thomas Wake. Among its numerous accolades, the film was nominated for Best Cinematography at the 92nd Academy Awards and the 73rd British Academy Film Awards. It grossed over $18 million, against an $11 million budget, and received widespread critical acclaim, with particular praise for the direction, visuals, and performances of Dafoe and Pattinson. The film premiered at the Cannes Film Festival on May 19, 2019, and was theatrically released in the United States by A24 on October 18, 2019. It was shot in black-and-white, with a nearly-square 1.19:1 aspect ratio. Principal photography took place in Nova Scotia, Canada, beginning in April 2018 and lasting slightly over a month. The Lighthouse draws visually from photography of 1890s New England, maritime-themed French cinema from the 1930s, and symbolist art. Robert Eggers assisted the development when Max was unable to complete the adaptation of 'The Light-House', sourcing the plot from a nineteenth-century legend of an accident at a lighthouse in Wales. The idea for the film first emerged from Max Eggers' re-envisioning of Edgar Allan Poe's unfinished short story of the same name. The film has defied categorization in media, and interpretations of it range from a horror film, a psychological thriller, a survival film, and a character study, among others. It stars Willem Dafoe and Robert Pattinson as nineteenth-century lighthouse keepers in turmoil after being marooned at a remote New England outpost by a wild storm. The Lighthouse is a 2019 film directed and produced by Robert Eggers, from a screenplay he wrote with his brother Max Eggers.
