The Light Between Oceans Movie Review (2. Tom Sherbourne returned to Australia in 1.
The Great War was over. And as was true for many other battered and wounded soldiers in the wake of that horrible struggle, it was time for Tom to go home. Tom's wounds weren't physical.
But they were painful nonetheless. He had seen such terrible things. He had lived when so many better men had not.
So taking a temporary post as a lighthouse keeper on the empty, lonely island of Janus seemed to be a perfect fit. It would afford him a chance to think, to process, hopefully to heal. His solitary plans are broadsided, however, when he gets invited to a luncheon on the mainland and meets a woman named Isabel. She's beautiful and warm, gentle and wise.
And even though he's not a man for quick banter or windy conversations, Isabel coaxes him to open parts of his heart he thought closed forever. And she shares her own losses brought on by the war. After a brief period of correspondence and visits to the mainland, their relationship takes what Isabel always saw as an inevitable turn.
They marry and return to Tom's isolated island to be lonely no more. Watch Demon Equation Youtube. And they begin to plan for life not just as husband and wife, but as father and mother. Life is indeed a blessing, filled with grace and hope. But, again, the stuff of life isn't always what we plan.
After several miscarried pregnancies, Tom and Isabel's blissful hopes begin to dim. Isabel's longing for a child becomes nearly as painful as Tom's own emotional post- war agony had been. Yet, in this case, he feels powerless to salve her wounds as she once mended his. Then one day a wailing baby washes ashore in a battered rowboat.
The man in the boat with the child is dead. And there's no hint of where they came from or how they became lost at sea.
It's something the authorities must look into. All Isabel can see, though, is the beautiful baby girl she now comforts in her arms. Was this meant to be? Did God intend this child to be theirs?
Tom assures her that can't be true. And it's his duty to notify the authorities on the distant mainland. But Isabel persists. No one would know that this tiny blessing was not their baby. After all, it will be months before the next boat arrives to deliver supplies.
Tom knows the right thing to do. He knows what he must do. But then he looks in the pleading eyes of the most precious person he's ever known. The only precious person he's ever known.
And he makes a decision. It will only require that he not make mention of the infant's arrival in his log. It will only require just that one, small lie. And may God forgive them.
