Shutter Island Page #6

I'll take a look later.

What's the matter boss?

I'll look at it later,

that's all.

Ashecliffe's that way.

I'm not going to Ashecliffe.

I'm going to the lighthouse.

I'm going to find out what

the f*** is hapening in thid island.

Here it is.

Damn!

too far north

We'll have to double back

There's no way to cros those rocks

there could be a way behind those trees

maybe a path that goes around the rocks

to the lighthouse

what are we doing here?

we've get the intake form

It proofs ther's a 67th patient...

who they've said repeatedly he doesn't exist

I'm getting to that lighthouse

do you understand?

What can I say to you stop.

why would you want to?

Because climbing down there

when it's dark ......... suicide

okay.

maybe it's better you sit this one out

you brought me into this, boss.

And now I am trapped on this rock.

On the island.

Without anyone we know.

And now you acting like .........

Like what?

How my acting?

What the hell happened

in those cells, Ted?

- What do you think weather is like in Portland, Chuck?

- I'm from Seattle.

Seattle?

I'll go alone... alone

Come with you, partner.

I said alone

Fine.

Damn it!

Damn it!

I knew it will take long.

but I couldn't get there because tide is on

Chuck!

Chuck!

Come on!

Chuck!

Where are you, chuck!

Chuck!

Chuck!

Who are you?

I am Teddy Daniels.

I'm a cop.

You're a marshal.

that's right.

would you mind mind ...

take your hands from behind

your back?

Why?

Why?

To make sure what you

have hold there does not hurt me

I'm gonna keep this...

If you do not mind.

fine with me.

You're Rachel Solando.

the real one.

did you kill your children?

I never had children.

I was never married.

before I be a patient

in Ashecliff, I worked here.

You were a nurse?

I was a doctor, marshall.

you think i'm crazy?

- No, I ...

- And if I say I'm not crazy ...

well that hardly helps, does it?

That's the Kafkaesque genius of it.

people always tell you you're crazy

and protested, on the contrary,

confirm what they say.

I do not following you.

I'm sorry.

Once you are declared insane,

then anything you do is called

as a part of insanity.

Your reasonable protests

or denial .

valid fears,

paranoia.

survival Instincts

As defense mechanisms.

You're smarter than you look marshall

that's probably not a good thing

Tell me something ...

Yes ...

What happened to you?

I started asking about shipping this

this large amount of sodium .

- And the sodium-based hallucinogens.

- Psychotropic drugs.

And I began to ask about the surgeries, too

Ever heard of transorbital lobotomy?

they cap the patient with electroshocks,

then go through the eye with an ice pick

and pull out some nerve fibers

Makes the patient more obedient.

Tractable

It's barbaric.

Unconscionable

Do you know how pain enters the

body marshal? do you?

Depends on where you hurt.

No, it has nothing to the flesh

The brain controls pain.

The brain controls fear, empathy,

sleep, anger, hunger ... everything.

what If you could control it?

the brain?

To re-create a man,

so he doesn't feel pain

Or love. Or sympathy.

A man who can't be interrogated

because he has no memories to confess

They can never takes

all men memories

Never.

And you know the North Koreans

use american POWs

during brainwashing experiments

they turns soldiers into traitors.

that's what they are doing here.

Creates ghosts and give way in the world.

And do things sane man never do.

that kind of ability, that kind of knowledge

It would take years.

Years of research,

experiments on hundreds of patients.

For 50 years now,

people will look back

and they say ... this place

is where it all began.

The Nazis used the Jews

the Soviets

used prisoners in their own gulags

and we...

We tested patients,

on Shutter Island.

No, they won't ...

no

you do understand

That they can't let you leave?

I'm a federal marshall ...

they can't stop me.

I was a esteemed psychiatrist,

from a respected family.

It did not matter.

let me ask you ...

any past trauma in your life?

yes, why... why that matter?

If a particular event is past

the reason you lost your sanity......

so when they commit you in here

your friends, colleagues will say...

he has cracked.

And who would do it,

after what happened.

That could be said of anyone

- anyone at all.

- The point is they're going to say it about you.

How's your head?

- My head?

- You had funny dreams?

trouble Sleeping, headaches ...

I'm prone to migraine

Jesus!

you haven't taken any pills, no?

- Not even aspire?

- I get a aspirin.

Jesus!

And you ate in the canteen and of drinking

coffee that gave it.

Tell me that even

Smoking Cigars of you.

Not ... no.

I haven't.

It takes between 36 and 48 hours for

neuroleptics narcotics ...

To reach sufficient blood

that you-and take effect.

pulse will become first

Fingers first and then

shall include all labor.

seen any waking nightmares lately,

marshall?

Tell me what's going on in that lighthouse?

Tell me.

brain surgery.

Like, "to open the skull to see

What if we pull on this kind. "..............

that's not different with Nazi's kind

And then they created the ghosts.

Who knows about this?

on the islandm i mean. Who?

Everyone.

Come on, the nurses, the orderlies?

- it's not possible ...

- Everybody.

you can't stay here.

They think i'm dead, that I drowned.

If they come looking for you, they might finf me

I'm sorry, but you have to go.

I'm gonna come back for you.

I will not be here. I move during the day.

new places every night.

but I could come get you

take you out of the island.

Haven't you heard a word I've said?

The only way off the island

is ferry and they control it

You'll never leave here.

I had a friend.

he was with me yesterday,

but we got seperated.

Have you seen him?

marshall ...

You have no friends.

There you are.

We've been wondering when

you'd show up

Take a seat.

Come on.

Taking a leisurely stroll? were we?

I just...

just looking around.

Did you enjoy

God's latest gift?

- What?

- The God's gifts.

the violence.

when I came downstaires in my home

and saw a tree in my living room

it reached for me like a divine hand.

God loves violence.

- I hadn't noticed.

- sure you have.

Why else would there be so much of it?

It's in us.

what we are.

we wage war, we burn sacrifices

we pillage and plunder

and treat at the flesh

of our brothers

and why? Because God gave us violence

to wage in his honor.

I thought God gave us moral orders.

There is no moral orders

as pure as this storm.

There's no moral order at all.

there's just this:

can my violence conquer yours?

- I'm not violent.

- You are.

You're violent as they come.

I know, because I am as violent as they come.

From constructred society

we were lifted..............

If I always stood between you and my meal you

would crack my skull with rock and steal my meal

Poor you

Cawley thinks you're harmless, you can be
