THE LIGHT BETWEEN OCEANS (2016) Movie Image: First Look At Derek Cianfrance’s Latest

The Light Between Oceans Movie Image Released. Derek Cianfrance is a filmmaker I’ve had my eye on since his debut, even more so once he made one of my favourite films of all time, The Place Beyond The Pines (2012). He has an amazing eye, a acute sense of storytelling, place, time, and emotion. He makes films I don’t mind being three hours long. He makes emotions I like wallowing in, or nostalgic places I like spending time in.

His newest project, The Light Between Oceans, comes out next year. We’ve been treated to the first movie still. Take a look!

According to FirstShowing, “Cianfrance’s next feature is an adaptation of M.L. Stedman‘s novel called The Light Between Oceans, about a lighthouse keeper and his wife living off the coast of Western Australia raising a baby they find. Alicia Vikander stars with Michael Fassbender as the married couple on the island, and the cast also includes Rachel Weisz, Emily Barclay and a few others. This first look photo of Vikander standing on a bluff over the ocean is a gorgeous photo and the only shot we’ve seen from this so far.

The synopsis for the book this is based on describes: “Tom Sherbourne is a lighthouse keeper on Janus Rock, a tiny island a half day’s boat journey from the coast of Western Australia. When a baby washes up in a rowboat, he and his young wife Isabel decide to raise the child as their own. The baby seems like a gift from God… [Author] M. L. Stedman’s vivid characters and gorgeous descriptions of the solitude of Janus Rock and of the unpredictable Australian frontier create a perfect backdrop for the tale of longing, loss, and the overwhelming love for a child that is The Light Between Oceans.” Early buzz indicates that the film is “one of the most powerful and emotional dramas” waiting to be released. The Light Between Oceans is both written and directed by filmmaker Derek Cianfrance, of Blue Valentine and The Place Beyond the Pinespreviously. The film is set to open sometime in 2016 but no exact release date has been set yet. Stay tuned.”
