Martin Scorsese Goes B-Movie Crazy In Brand New SHUTTER ISLAND Trailer!!!

Beaks here...

I'm on my way out the door for a screening, but I feel duty-bound to leave you with a link to the just-posted trailer of Martin Scorsese's SHUTTER ISLAND in Glorious Quicktime™. This looks like Scorsese's return to the B-movie playground of CAPE FEAR, and I can't wait to get back home to sort through this trailer frame-by-frame - if only to appreciate the always-brilliant work of cinematographer Robert Richardson (I'm getting a vague BLACK NARCISSUS vibe from the shot posted above). In case you're in the dark on this one, SHUTTER ISLAND is adapted from the novel by Dennis Lehane, who wrote MYSTIC RIVER and GONE BABY GONE. Since I'm in a hurry, here's the plot summary from the Apple trailers page:
From Oscar®-winning director Martin Scorsese, “Shutter Island” is the story of two U.S. marshals, Teddy Daniels (Leonardo DiCaprio) and Chuck Aule (Mark Ruffalo), who are summoned to a remote and barren island off the coast of Massachusetts to investigate the mysterious disappearance of a murderess from the island’s fortress-like hospital for the criminally insane.
