shutter island (2010). directed by martin scorsese.

some people i just do not find watchable especially when they are bankable megastars and have a film out every year. it's them, again, and again, and again. boring is an understatement. unfortunately, for the talented leonardo dicaprio, is exactly that in my book. 

however shutter island is full of twists and turns worth the amount of frowning dicaprio was aiming for in the movie. i like the sombre mood, the gray colours, the perpetual rain, the word play. and i like the tortured dicaprio forever falling down for not ever wanting to let go. memory, is indeed, a hateful thing.

i am going to be up all night downloading mahler, for free. tonnes of them are available at 4shared.com. this movie introduces me to mahler's melancholic quartet in a minor. a sorrowful song to a sorrowful story of a man in war with no other but himself.
