shutter island



reading this book right now. so far it's really great. since i heard of the movie first, as i read it i'm thinking about how they'll shoot it as a film, and i think it will turn out really good...although i have to admit, i'm kind of worried about how they'll portray the dream sequences, those are always tough to do well in films. the book's written by the same guy who wrote gone baby gone and mystic river, both apparently good films. (i've seen mystic river, but don't really remember it, but my folks loved it, and gone baby gone, i just never got around to, although i think a few folks at the movie store watched it and they liked it.)
i'm excited for the film. i think kelsey's going to come with me to see it which is great, because she gets really scared and jumpy in movies, which makes me scared and extra jumpy, thus enhancing the movie-watching experience!

update: just finished the book. it was super good. great even. 4.5/5
