SHUTTER ISLAND
I have recently seen a very interesting film: Shutter Island. To summarize a bit the argument, is about two bailiffs who are sent to Shutter Island, an island in Boston Harbor where there's a psychiatric institution. They are sent to investigate the disappearance of a dangerous killer. The mental institution is run by a sinister character. In this institution there are the most dangerous mental patients, so there's a strong securely. However, they'll realize that everything is very mysterious, and that patients aren't the most dangerous of the island. I think the film delves into human psychology, into the mind, with all its complexities. Actually, the movie is a nightmare in which there are continuous discoveries, it seems increasingly difficult to escape.
Personally, I think the end has several interpretations (don't read this if you want to see it), I think the phrase "Is it better to live like a monster, or die as a good man?" is the key that confirms that he knows he will be lobotomized, and therefore he pretends he has not improved their disease on purpose.
