New trailer: Shutter Island


Be warned: this is from the Robert Zemeckis school of "give as much away in the trailer as possible" so if you haven't read the book (which i have) that this seems to stick quite closely to, you may not want to watch this trailer before seeing the film.

That said it does look good and hopefully will be much better than Scorsese's overrated The Departed. Unfortunately it is yet another of the Scorsese/DiCaprio team ups (please make a new film with DeNiro Marty and forget pumpkin-headed Leo who's not fit to shine Bobby's shoes) but it has a hell of a cast: Ben Kingsley, Mark Ruffalo, Michelle Williams, Max Von Sydow, Ted Levine, Patricia Clarkson, Emily Mortimer, Elias Koteas, Jakie Earle Haley etc etc etc. Plus the trailer has clear stylistic vibes of Hitchcock and Kubrick which is interesting.
