/* ----- VIDEO INFORMATION ----- */

So Shutter Island is one of those movies that lived rent-free in my head, even though I'd only watched the film a handful of times. After picking up the 4k blu ray and revisiting it for this breakdown, I found a lot of incredible details and hidden things in it that seeped into my subconscious on a first watch, and this really elevated the movie far beyond the appreciation that I had for it originally. Scorsese has really crafted a masterpiece here, and throughout this video, we're gonna be breaking down why the film is so haunting. We'll of course also be talking about the ending and all of the clues that build towards it.

Now I was someone who guessed the twist in the first scene on my first watch. The idea it was all in someone's mind is a trope that's been used in a number of films and shows like The Twilight Zone, Fight Club, The Machinist and so on. However, even though I think you can safely guess it in the opening scene, the film actually goes beyond the twist due to its complex characters and narrative.

Even the title itself is layered, with Shutter Island being an anagram of truth and lies. If we're really reaching, it can also be re-arranged to say Ted Hunts Liars with Di Caprio's character going under the name Teddy Daniels.

This is later changed up to become Edward Daniels, and we discover that he's actually called Andrew Laeddis which is also an anagram of Edward Daniels. Later on, when we meet Laeddis, we can see that he has a giant scar across his face that also goes through his eyebrow. One thing that you might overlook is that Teddy also has a cut through his eyebrow, and this was given to Dicaprio by the makeup department to symbolise that they are one and the same.
