The location of the psychiatric hospital in the movie "Shutter Island" (2010) is not based on any real location. The movie is fiction, based on the 2003 novel by Dennis Lahane.

Shutter Island itself is not an actual place. Borderland State Park in Easton, Massachusetts was used for the cabin scene, Peddocks Island was used as a setting for the story's island, and East Point, in Nahant, Massachusetts for the lighthouse scenes. Scenes inside the hospital were filmed at the old Medfield State Hospital in Medfield, Massachusetts.

It depends what anyones definition of "scary" is. However, it is not scary. It is filled with mystery and suspense with an abundance of twists and turns. It would not be listed under Horror, but

  1. suspense
  2. mystery
  3. drama

Initiall its about Leonardo DiCaprio playing a detective in the 1950's, who decides to investigate the suspicious death of a woman from the hospital on the island. But, there's a enormous twist and I wouldn't to spoil it for you. Watch it though, it is a fantastic film.

yes the film does as you see teddy has flashbacks of his time during the war, and the constant visits from his wife as the doctor (forgotten his name) quotes 'Baby why are you wet?' this triggers the memory of murdering his wife as they were by the river and small things like rain can trigger his memory as his children and wife were murdered by water. He also wears a façade to seem as though he is strong but as the film wears on we realise he is actually weak.

No, it is not based on a true story, actually it's based on a book by Dennis Lehane.

The book is based on a true story. So therefore, the movie is also.

What is PTSD in terms of psychology?

PTSD stands for Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder. It was first observed in war veterans a century ago, when it was called "shell-shocked". With further advances in mental health research and treatment, the understanding of trauma has been expanded from war zones to also include people who have had serious experiences -- sexual or family-of-origin abuse, catastrophes like weather phenomena or bombings, even vehicle crashes and home invasions/kidnappings. Most therapists study the effects and treatment strategies for PTSD in school, and there are many therapists who specialize in this sort of treatment. Frequent sufferers include 'first responders' like police, fire, EMT staff; and soldiers and civilians caught in war zones. Ibogaine is becoming a preferred (and very effective) treatment for PTSD, and Mexico-based clinics who specialize in Ibogaine have seen an uptick in patients coming specifically for PTSD. Ibogaine is a plant-based medicine that resets dopamine receptors which are often damaged by anxiety, depression, PTSD, and addiction; it's also showing remarkable promise for people with Parkinson's and ADHD. The top program in Mexico is New Path Specialized Clinic, and they can be found at NewPathIbogaine dot com


What is connection between story of the movie In the Valley of Elah with its name?

The Valley of Elah is where the Isrealites were camped when David fought Goliath. This conflict is one of the cornerstone symbols of literature, defining the defeat of a vastly greater force by a diminutive element, the success of the underdog. The protagonigist in the movie, Hank Deerfiled (played by Tommy Lee Jones) finds "success" against overwhelming odds in the hunt for his son's killers. The coorelation can be made here, but there are a number of other connections that can be made with some effort. This movie focuses light on the very real problems faced by those suffering from PTSD. It looks at the stresses our service members face in and out of combat, and the ways in which they attempt to deal with these stresses. It also looks at the military family dynamic.

My Husband has ptsd. why does this lead him to have multiple affairs?

There's no correlation between the two. That said, if he is self-medicating his PTSD with alcohol, or another drug that acts as a dis-inhibitor, then there would be a likely increase in behavior that is impulsive or inappropriate.
