The Light Between Oceans

*I received a Blu-Ray copy of the movie The Light Between Oceans in order to facilitate this review, however as always opinions are 100% my own. ‘

There is nothing better than a chick flick that you can sit down and watch cuddled up with your favorite blanket. Love stories are always a hit for me, but Brady just rolls his eyes and agrees to watch them with me. 9 times out of 10 he spends the time on his phone, but that is okay, you can’t win them all. The movie The Light Between Oceans was a must see for me because of the preview, it looked enchanting yet heartbreaking at the same time. So I knew when I had the chance to watch it, I knew I would love it. But I wasn’t ready for the emotional rollercoaster ride I went on because I felt like I was in the movie the right along with them.

Watch a story that is a timeless tale of love, relationships, and impossible choices. The sweeping romantic film, Disney/Dreamworks Pictures’ The Light Between Oceans, arrives on Digital HD, Blu-ray™, DVD and On-Demand on Jan. 24th. This beautiful romance stars two-time Academy Award® nominee Michael Fassbender (Best Actor, Steve Jobs), Oscar® winner Alicia Vikander (Best Supporting Actress, The Danish Girl), and Oscar and Golden Globe® winner Rachel Weisz (Best Supporting Actress, The Constant Gardener).

This release includes never-before-seen bonus features, including a documentary which reveals director Derek Cianfrance’s unique approach that allowed the all-star cast to embody their characters and examine the power of love; a historical look at New Zealand’s Cape Campbell Lighthouse that serves as Janus Rock, a key element in Stedman’s novel; and insightful and in-depth audio commentary led by Cianfrance.

In a moment of loss came a miracle of life… I will have to admit though that the preview had me in tears of sadness and joy! Grab the box of tissues and check out this preview now! There is even a book which will be wonderful to read!

As the island’s sole inhabitant, he finds comfort in the monotony of the chores and the solitude of his surroundings.
