Shutter Island
- The writers of this film are Laeta Kalogridis (screenplay) and Dennis Lehave (novel). The director of this film is Martin Scorsese and he has also directed The Irishman, Goodfellas, Taxi Driver, The Departed, The Wolf of Wall Street, Raging Bull, Casino, Mean Streets, Silence, Gangs of New York, The Aviator, The King of Comedy, Hugo, Cape Fear, The Last Temptation, After Hours and many more.
- The main cast of the film is Leonardo DiCaprio who plays Teddy Daniels, Mark Ruffalo who plays Chuck Aule and Emily Mortimer who plays Rachel 1.
- A trivia about this film is that the title is an anagram of “truths and lies” and “truths/denial” and Shutter Island was filmed in four months during 2008. Through most of the story line, it is cloudy and the rain turns heavier as the story gets deeper. The sun only comes out in the final scenes. This is another reference to Freud, who described the subconscious as a confusing cloudy weather in opposition to the clear skies of the consciousness.
- I watched this film in February with a few of my friends at one of their houses during the night, it made the experience much more exciting and on edge as we were all together and we were in a dark room which made the experience much more impactful and the jump scares much more intense.
- What I liked about this film was that it had many different plot twists and different parts to it that you had to join up and discover on your own which made the progress much more exciting and mysterious as many different things kept coming up that would lead you to have different thoughts and ideas as to what was going on and about to happen .
