Since Robert Eggers’ The Lighthouse premiered at Cannes back in May, it’s been largely praised for its dark humor and the performances by Robert Pattinson and Willem Dafoe.
Now, indie studio A24 has decided to campaign Pattinson for Best Actor and Dafoe for Supporting Actor in the upcoming Oscar race.
The movie won the International Federation of Film Critics Prize at the French film festival and has since gained a 94% Fresh Rotten Tomatoes score after over 100 reviews.
