Martin Scorsese and Celina Murga
On a mellow summer afternoon, Celina Murga and I sit under a vast, old tree on the grounds of a derelict 19th-century insane asylum outside Medfield, Massachusetts. We are talking about her experience as film protégée to Martin Scorsese. Suddenly the squawks of walkie-talkies bounce across the landscape; moments later a sleek, black town car whizzes by, affording us a glimpse of thick, silver hair through the back window. “Marty,” Murga says happily. “They must be ready to shoot.” Scorsese is filming Shutter Island, based on Dennis Lehane’s best-selling psychological thriller about a U.S. marshal, played by Leonardo DiCaprio, who investigates an isolated hospital for the criminally insane and finds himself trapped in a labyrinth with no exit in sight.
