The Lightship
$14.98
Mostly I agree with the points in Cricket and Crestwood's quite negative reviews, but still found it entertaining and would rate it a bit higher.The Duvall character was crazy enough to keep you guessing. Actually he sort of reminded me of Ledger as Joker in the Batman film. Which came first?

I found it quite satisfactory for one watching but would be unlikely to watch it again. Okay for an evening as a suspense/adventure film. More interesting than most. But like most, once the characters have played themselves out and there are no more mysteries, the film is done. No truly memorable moments. The depth of the characters is not all that deep to go back and ponder another time. All in all an average decent film.

Mephisto

The Bottom Line:

A fascinating movie about the rise of an actor short on talent but skilled at ingratiating himself with the up and coming Nazi party in 1930s Germany, Mephisto features a very good performance by Klaus Maria Brandauer as the actor whose only successful role (as Mephisto in a stage version of Faust) works because selling his soul hits so close to home; a sometimes slow but very rewarding film, Mephisto won a deserved Best Foreign Language Oscar and is no less impressive today.
