Foes

I give this film six stars. Two of those stars are for the temerity of the producers. I have heard that the National Sleep Institute is recommending this movie for various forms of therapy. Don't quote me on that.

Young couple in love, in charge of a lighthouse somewhere of the coast of an English speaking country. A flying saucer appears, straddles their island ominously. They look at it. They stare. They glance at each other. They say, "Hmm," a fair amount, saunter from building to building. There is no sense of urgency. The woman is burned badly. They move like mud. The communications equipment goes awry. No one opens a panel and looks in. If they stopped and made a nice lunch, I would not have been surprised. Anyway, someone went to the trouble of making the movie, the only one for the writer and director, Coates, I believe. He had a dream. He followed it. I watched it. Heck, I'm kicking in another star.
