Watch Clips of Martin Scorsese on the Set of Shutter Island
Paramount Pictures has just recently released footage of Martin Scorsese on the set of Shutter Island, filming his upcoming horror thriller slated for a February 19th release. The two-part, behind-the-scenes look features the Oscar-winning director at work with the film’s lead, Leonardo DiCaprio. Watching a filmmaker of the highest caliber doing what he does best is fascinating, and I suggest all those anticipating Scorsese’s upcoming movie to take a look. A quick synopsis of Shutter Island:
“Two U.S. marshals, Teddy Daniels and Chuck Aule, are summoned to a remote and barren island off the coast of Massachusetts to investigate the mysterious disappearance of a murderess from the island’s fortress-like hospital for the criminally insane.”
The two clips are available after the jump.

These clips are great! No talking heads, just a bystanders view of the production at work. I like it, it’s a nice change.
Posted by Titus on February 3rd, 2010this is awesome! you learn alot more about the filmmaking process from footage like this as opposed to a cheesy stock standard making of featurette. I could watch this stuff for hours

Posted by Jonathan on February 3rd, 2010two things
first, the biggest difference between the big time and the small time is studio pictures can afford to have the camera moving on every shot. those rigs are insane. so much set-up.
second, Scorsese is so hyper-active he doesn’t do the one Livestrong bracelet – he goes double, one on each wrist!
