Product Description

In the years following World War I, Tom Sherbourne (Michael Fassbender), a young veteran still numb from his years in combat, takes a job as lighthouse keeper on Janus Rock, a remote island off the coast of Western Australia. As the island's sole inhabitant, he finds comfort in the monotony of the chores and the solitude of his surroundings. When he meets the daughter of the school's headmaster, Isabel Graysmark (Alicia Vikander), in the local town of Partageuse on the mainland, Tom is immediately captivated by her beauty, wit and passion, and they are soon married and living on the island. As their love flourishes, he begins to feel again, their happiness marred only by their inability to start a family, so when a rowboat with a dead man and infant girl mysteriously washes ashore, Isabel believes their prayers may have finally been answered. As a man of principle, Tom is torn between reporting the lost child and pleasing the woman he loves, and against his better judgment he agrees to let Isabel raise the child as their own, making a choice with devastating consequences.

Customer Reviews

The Light Between Oceans is my new favorite movie!

I saw this movie several years ago and as I watched it I thought to myself how genuinely convincing the story if Tom and Isabel's love was. Later I had come to find that the two actors had fallen in love during the production and married. I have shared my copy of the DVD with friends not just because of the love story but because of the unique story in addition to the gem of the best romance on film I have ever seen! And how did they get the little girl who played Lucy to say and do all the lovely things she did!?
