The film Shutter Island, by Martin Scorsese made me an abundance of different emotions throughout the film. It was a fantastic film and I really wasn’t sure where the film was going until the perfect twist on it at the end. I think Martin Scorsese’s draw on the history of WWII was depicted better andContinue reading “Shutter Island”

In the beginning of the filmContinue reading “Rear Window”
