May 27, 2013 · “This bitter earth/On the nature of daylight” is the song that concludes Martin Scorsese’s 2010 psychological thriller Shutter Island. None of the music for the film’s soundtrack was actually composed for the film but it was (expertly) curated by musician and long-time collaborator Robbie Robertson, whom Martin Scorsese originally met ...
Plot. In 1954, U.S. Marshal Edward "Teddy" Daniels and his new partner Chuck Aule travel to Ashecliffe Hospital for the criminally insane on the inhospitable Shutter Island, Boston Harbor, to investigate the disappearance of Rachel Solando, a patient of the hospital who had previously drowned her three children.

In the scene where we are first introduced to Dolores, we see her back burning like a lump of coal when she turns around and starts moving away from Teddy, symboli...
There’s an interesting scene towards the end, when Teddy blows up the car. He is persistent on finding the truth and completely disregards Dolores, and uses a memento of her love to torch the car. The car does explode, with brilliant contrast to his own ever-amplifying implosion, and his mind brings his daughter and Dolores in the same frame for th...
Overall, ‘Shutter Island’ is a terrific film and one of the most intelligent films of this decade overloaded with symbolism that justifies Scorsese’s immortal stature. The narrative according to many critics is weak but it is an adaptation and has a moral responsibility to stick to its source material but Roger Ebert rightfully said “You may read r...
Sep 11, 2015 · The song plays over the images of Teddy at the concentration camp, and more disturbingly, over the botched suicide job of the Nazi officer. The floating documents that fill the room as Teddy walks in matches the cascading melodic lines of the Piano Quartet.
