Shutter Island
“Which would be better: to live as a monster, or to die as a good man?”
*DAMN.

This was my second time watching this film, and I’m honestly shocked by how many details I completely missed during my first watch back in 2024. If there’s a word that ranks higher than “genius,” it has to be Martin Scorsese.
He is an absolute genius! I’m still trying to process how he thought of this, how he crafted such a legendary plot twist! The amount of detail in every frame is just... 🤌🏻
I feel like everyone MUST watch this movie more than once to catch all the hints and subtle clues scattered throughout. It truly shows you what a cinematic mastermind Scorsese really is.
