We see Tommy Devito repeatedly beating Billy Bates with a pistol from a low angle shot after Billy insulted Tommy by telling him “To go home and get your F***en shine box” in reference to Tommy’s old job cleaning shoes in “The Suite” a restaurant opened by Henry Hill.

Shutter Island Symbolism Essay In Shutter Island‚ Martin Scorsese uses symbolism to reflect the idea of conflict between fantasy and reality for Andrew Laeddis. Scorsese uses water‚ fire and the lighthouse to convey this idea. In Shutter Island‚ water traps Teddy Daniels on Shutter Island. It always acts as a barrier and it stops Teddy from investigating the island. The water surrounds and traps him on the island and distorts Teddy’s vision and other things like the word “RUN” that he was given

Innocence (Martin Scorsese 1993) has thoroughly explored relationships and identity in differing contexts that reflect a rigid society. Connections between both texts have demonstrated‚ through key themes of social consciousness‚ marriage and passion‚ a deeper insight to human relationship and pursuit of identity and appearance.

Scorsese could have used these images of the young Dalai Lama misbehaving as a way to show that he was still a human with human faults. It is interesting that Scorsese chose to begin the film with the young Dalai Lama at his home near the Chinese border and conclude the film with him crossing the Indian border being forced out by the Chinese. Scorsese tells the story of a young boy forced to grow up with great responsibility

But also‚ some long takes force us to analyze and understand what happened (Very high-angle takes that Scorsese calls "Priest shots" after the massacre.).
