This 2010 Psychological Thriller Is a Mind-Bending Team-Up for Martin Scorsese & Leonardo DiCaprio
From its initial unsettling scenes of a policeman overcoming queasiness to step onto an island penitentiary for troubled convicts, Martin Scorsese’s Shutter Island (stream it now on Peacock!) establishes an atmosphere. The brooding skies, the skewed camera angles, and the long shots that convey dread in the eyes of the mentally unstable – there’s a hint of Arkham Asylum about it all. It’s dark, mysterious, and for Scorsese, slightly deviating from the ordinary reality we know.
