Shutter Island Trailer Online Scorsese and DiCaprio reunited Source: Apple
Paramount has released the first trailer for Martin Scorsese's Shutter Island, starring Leonardo DiCaprio, Mark Ruffalo, Ben Kingsley, Michelle Williams, Max Von Sydow, Patricia Clarkson and Jackie Earle Haley.
Based on a Dennis Lehane novel (he wrote Mystic River, and he's written episodes of The Wire), the story is set in the 1950s and sees DiCaprio as a US Marshall investigating a disappearance at an island-based insane asylum.
Scorsese's fourth collaboration with DiCaprio (after Gangs of New York, The Aviator and The Departed) is a particularly intriguing prospect, since it looks like it has more in common with his 1991 Cape Fear remake (and Silence of the Lambs, and The Wicker Man) than anything he's made since. Cape Fear is great, but Scorsese has all but disowned it in recent years as a work-for-hire.
There's more than a hint of the supernatural here, but are they red herrings? Current release date: October 9th.

I think Scorcese is one of the most overrated directors ever but this looks like something I can get my teeth into. It reminds me of Cape Fear. Looking forward to seeing it now.
don't see how anyone can call Scorsese overrated. The man is a visionary. He has a unique and instantly recognisable visual approach and manages to perfectly merge style and substance. He is experimental whilst being completely accessible. What more can you ask for in a director?

Bodes very badly for the film, esp given Scorsese's cringeworthy Departed. The ending of this book will make you want to burn the book right after reading - believe me, it's that bad! The trailer does it's darnedest to give it away too. Keep expectations low, that's my tip.
ointless statements and ridiculous i might add. Oh Believe me its not.
