A young Donald Trump (Sebastian Stan), eager to make his name as a hungry second son of a wealthy family in 1970s New York, comes under the spell of Roy Cohn (Jeremy Strong), the cutthroat attorney who would help create the Donald Trump we know today. Cohn sees in Trump the perfect protégé -- someone with raw ambition, a hunger for success, and a willingness to do whatever it takes to win. A smart, tragic take on just how dark the American Dream can be, with award-worthy work from Stan and Strong. From acclaimed filmmaker Ali Abbasi (Border, Holy Spider) THE APPRENTICE is a provocative, darkly funny tale of greed and power.

Two lighthouse keepers (Willem Dafoe and Robert Pattinson) try to maintain their sanity while living on a remote and mysterious New England island in the 1890s. A rich and strange sea yarn in monochrome that overflows with Beckettian absurdity and Lovecraftian weirdness, as these men, perhaps both liars (literal gaslighters), look into the abyss of both their elemental isolation & their infernal companionship. A gripping story brilliantly filmed and led by a pair of powerhouse performances, THE LIGHTHOUSE further establishes Robert Eggers as a visionary filmmaker of exceptional talent.
