I unequivocally accept that linguistics constitutes an entertaining pastime; still, it is inevitable to recognize the verisimilitude that an article can become ponderous should one continue to disseminate periodicals replete with polysyllabic expressions.

Wha... what? You want to hear me say something about
The Lighthouse?
Alright, you bore!
I see
The Lighthouse like this: After 90 years, someone made a remake of
Gardiens de phare (1929), the script was written by Lovecraft and Freud, and the film was shot by Nykvist... Bloody splendid work, my laddies!

Well, this is as Lovecraftian as it gets. A masterpiece.
