Because I'm a big Dafoe fan. I've liked him ever since he wrote Robinson Crusoe.
Actually, it only dates back to The Last Temptation of Christ (which I haven't seen; what's wrong with me?), where his depiction of Jesus offended the Christian right and prompted them to threaten to boycott films he starred in thereafter. He lost several juicy roles as a result. Still, he's rolled with the punches, taken his notoriety to heart, to star in Pasolini as Pasolini, and in Nymphomaniac: Chapter 3, edgy films about edgy characters.
So, yeah. Need to watch Lighthouse. But where? Probably not streaming on Netflix...
