Trailer for Martin Scorsese’s Shutter Island

Be warned. The trailer you are about so see is extremely epic. Why? Because Shutter Island is directed by one of the best directors in Hollywood, and the lead role is played by one of my favorite actors, Leonardo DiCaprio. His acting skills are impeccable, and he does different accents very well. The film also features acclaimed actors Sir Ben Kingsley, Mark Ruffalo, Emily Mortimer, and Jackie Earle Haley, fresh from his brilliant performance in Watchmen, in which he played Rorschach. I got goosebumps watching this trailer. You might get them too. Enjoy.

It's 1954, and up-and-coming U.S. marshal Teddy Daniels is assigned to investigate the disappearance of a patient from Boston's Shutter Island Ashecliffe Hospital. He's been pushing for an assignment on the island for personal reasons, but before long he wonders whether he hasn't been brought there as part of a twisted plot by hospital doctors whose radical treatments range from unethical to illegal to downright sinister. Teddy's shrewd investigating skills soon provide a promising lead, but the hospital refuses him access to records he suspects would break the case wide open. As a hurricane cuts off communication with the mainland, more dangerous criminals "escape" in the confusion, and the puzzling, improbable clues multiply, Teddy begins to doubt everything - his memory, his partner, even his own sanity.
