• Shutter Island set movie – June 30, 2008
Hollywood has invaded Walpole’s neighbors over the last few months as Academy Award winning director Martin Scorsese begins to wrap up shooting for his new movie “Ashecliffe.”
Simple yellow signs with the word “Ashe” typed on them have been directing cast and crew to filming locations in Medfield and Sharon over the past few months.
“Ashecliffe” is an adaptation of Dennis Lehane’s bestselling novel “Shutter Island.”
Lehane is a Dorchester native who has also written the Boston-centric flicks “Mystic River,” and “Gone Baby Gone.”
His newest drama is set in 1954 and follows U.S. Marshal Teddy Daniels investigating the disappearance of a murderess and mental patient who has escaped from an institution on a remote Boston Harbor island. Daniels and his partner, Chuck Aule, run into trouble when they are deceived by hospital workers, and an inmate riot and a hurricane trap them on the island.
Daniels is being played by Hollywood superstar Leonardo DiCaprio. Mark Ruffalo portrays Aule. Michelle Williams and Ben Kingsley will act in supporting roles. Read more…
From “The Empire Online“:
Those of you who have seen Brick will know that Rian Johnson has a bit of a gift for re-inventing genres. With his first movie, the writer director brought a hip highschool spin to film noir and with The Brothers Bloom he casts his peculiar eye over the con movie. Expect mucho weirdness, of the good kind.
As you can see from these exclusive pics, The Brothers Bloom stars Adrien Brody and Mark Ruffalo as a pair of sibling con artists. Ruffalo is Stephen, a happy-go-lucky swindler, while his brother Bloom (Brody) is the more sensitive of the pair, getting attached to each of his marks and often getting his heart broken. And when the latest victim of their nefarious ways is Rachel Weisz, a bored heiress in search of adventure, you can see why. That the film also stars Rinko Kikuchi (Babel) as a largely mute conwoman with a penchant for karaoke gives you a pretty good idea of the tone to expect. The flick’s set for release October 24th and the official site is partially online.
