The Ghost and The Whale (2017) Reviews

  • Disturbing and unsettling

    Gordon-112016-05-24

    This film tells the story of a journalist, who goes to a small town to cover a story of a man with bipolar disorder, who is believed to have done something which led to the death of his wife in the sea. From the description, I thought the film would be an introspective film about a tormented man. In reality, the film is about a group of violent and severely disturbed townsmen who uses every means possible to get their way. The violence is graphic and disturbing. The bipolar man serves only as a vehicle to bring out the violence in the plot. There is little ghost or whale scene, so don't expect these based on the title. After watching the film, I feel disturbed and unsettled.

  • TREMENDOUS

    onecoolpsychic2018-11-25

    An exceptional film, largely overlooked upon it's initial release. It was recommended to me by my acting teacher for, as he put it, "A great film, created by real story tellers" . Agreed. The performance by director, Anthony Gaudioso alone was spectacular. One of the top villains I've seen in cinema. Terrifying when you look at what he looks like in real life, to what he became. Well done. The film is a staunch, unflinching look at love, loss and fate. Exceptional writing and masterful directing by The Twins. It's high concept in a relatable story. You really have to pay attention to to appreciate. References to the great Edgar Allen Poe, Melville and Hitchcock. Notable performances by the cast round out this ensemble, most specifcally, brother - James Gaudioso, Kelley Ann Flynn & Tim Brennen 100% recommend.

  • Mysteries of Minds

    This under-promoted drama/mystery about a man named Joseph who is struggling with bipolar disorder and the mysterious death of his wife, is one of the best films I've seen. With an intriguing plot, a stellar cast, and beautifully shot scenes, it grabbed my attention and kept me at the edge of my seat. The plot unfolds in such a way that I felt the dark despair, the disabling confusion, the pain, the deep love, the manic highs, the glimmers of hope, and the relentless need for answers right along with Joseph. The pace is up and down, fast, and frenzied just as Joseph's mind operates. True to life, surrounding him are people who are ignorant about mental illness and willing to ignore him, condemn him, hurt him, hate him, and be frightened of him. Only one person is willing to get to know the real Joseph and this allows the audience to meet him, too. Joseph's roller coaster ride throughout the film made my emotions jump from angry, to confused, to scared, to sickened at the pain human beings inflict on each other. Yet, at the same time, I found reasons to smile, to care, and to hope. The ride was truly memorable for me.

  • TGATW Fantastic Movie

    rpunte-165412017-03-19

    TGATW is a fantastic movie. Maurice Benard truly is one amazing actor. He will take you on a ride thru his ups and downs. Give this movie a chance. I don't think you will be disappointed. Watching the character of Joseph Hawthorne come to terms with what happened to his wife is very much gut wrenching and edge of you sit entertainment. Thank you Maurice for you genuine portrayal and for this amazing movie!

  • Excellent film

    maddhypes-721572017-01-10

    I literally have no idea what the other reviewer was talking about. I saw this gem at the WGA and it received a standing ovation of over 500 people. It is an exceptional film with intelligent characters and an intricately woven story that demands attention rather than the all too often movie goer gives. This is an exceptional important film which shines a light on the mental health field and in particular Bipolar disorder. After his wife goes missing during a whale watching expedition a forlorn Joseph Hawthorne believed to be innocent by half the town and vilified by the other half becomes a self repressed reclusive and goes off his stabilizing medication of Lithium. A year later a reporter with a resume but little knowledge of the intricacies of a small town decides to get the skinny of what actually took place. At the same time the ill fated brides brother returns from a 10 year stint in a state facility for manslaughter, just in time to exact his revenge on the man he feels robbed him of his baby sister. This is an intelligent film with demanding performances by Anthony Gaudioso as Jack Lee, coincidently Gaudioso, also wrote, directed and produced the piece, no small feat. The incomparable Jonathan Pryce appears as the films narrator and the complicated ID of our protagonist Joseph Hawthorne (Benard) Films like this are tricky and this film no doubt is good, actually better than good as it weaves three complex story lines into one creating a Hitchcockian cat and mouse between the reporter, Jack Lee, (Annabelle Lee's brother) and its central protagonist. This is not an easy story again and a bit high brow without the pretentiousness one might assume. It's only shortcomings are that of it's restrictive budget. Shot only on750k the film for at least this view was a winner. The only restriction is the films budget, a mere 750k and for that the filmmakers have a winner.
