Details

This thoughtful, often fascinating featurette focuses on the psychiatric aspects of "Shutter Island" and how consultant James Gilligan counseled the actors so they could better understand their reactions and motivations. We also learn about the controversial yet prevalent practice of lobotomizing violent mental patients and how the more humane approach of pharma-psychology gradually replaced it around the time period in which the story takes place.

ChampDavSlim The acting is good, and the firecracker script has some excellent ideas.
Clarissa Mora The tone of this movie is interesting -- the stakes are both dramatic and high, but it's balanced with a lot of fun, tongue and cheek dialogue.
Kirandeep Yoder The joyful confection is coated in a sparkly gloss, bright enough to gleam from the darkest, most cynical corners.
Cody One of the best movies of the year! Incredible from the beginning to the end.
