"Would I rather live as a monster, or die as a hero?"

I went to go see the movie "Shutter Island" and it was absolutely amazing. Part of me is desperate to write a massive breakdown of the film and put down my own explicit footnotes as one whose been declared clinically psychotic; but I feel that this would be unfair to those who have not yet had the privilege of watching the film. POSSIBLE MOVIE TAINTER AHEAD: But I will say this much, the movie has got it exactly right; the film perfectly portrays what it is like to become utterly batshit, and the psychology behind it - yet leaving the question blazing in its own glory - what some call madness, others will call enlightenment. I stand proudly in the latter group.

SO GO WATCH "SHUTTER ISLAND," SO WE CAN DISCUSS IT, ALREADY.

SPOILER:
P.S. The little drowned girl looks just like me when I was that age. How disturbing, because it was a bit like seeing one's own grave. THE MOVIE SERIOUSLY FUCKED WITH ME ! ! !
