Naehring (Max von Sydow), a psychiatrist of another stripe who raises Teddy's distrust with his German accent. Cawley is an interesting character himself, a psychiatrist in 1954 who believes in more gentle care of patients, even criminal ones, and who questions the budding drug therapies of the time. Cawley (Ben Kingsley), who explains the case of the missing Rachel Solando, a woman who lost her husband to war and drowned her three children and who seemingly vanished from a locked room with a barred window. Teddy and Chuck are brought to the office of Dr. Still, DiCaprio's performance is so intense he leaves us with an implication to dwell on in the film's final scene. The most basic flaw of "Shutter Island" is that once Scorcese reveals the truth, he dwells upon it so long he blunts its impact. As a hurricane bears down, Teddy, who suspects mind control experiments are occurring in a lighthouse, doesn't know who to trust on "Shutter Island." Martin Scorcese returns to Boston after his Oscar winning "The Departed" to helm the third Dennis Lehane ("Mystic River," "Gone Baby Gone") adaptation to grace the big screen, and, like Eastwood and Affleck before him, delivers a film that is superior to its pulpy source material with its unoriginal 'shocking twist.' In fact, many if not most should see what's coming - Scorcese even gives us a signpost very early on - but that doesn't detract from this funhouse mirror movie.
When they arrive, Teddy is agitated when told by Deputy Warden McPherson (John Carroll Lynch) that they must surrender their weapons and further disturbed by a perceived coverup in the case of the missing patient he is investigating. On a private ferry in Boston Harbor Federal Marshall Teddy Daniels (Leonardo DiCaprio) admits to his brand new partner Chuck Aule (Mark Ruffalo) that he's been keeping an eye out for a case at Ashecliffe Hospital for the criminally insane because it houses the man who set the fire that killed his wife.
