Leo's character did know at the end what had happened. He remembered everything, and he couldn't take the pain of remembering so he pretended that he slipped back into delusion, just so his pain would be taken away.

This is a testament not just to Leo's acting but to Marty's directing. Yelling "No!" up into the sky while holding the body of a loved one has become a cliche,, a shorthand for genuine emotion and most of the time it is laughable (see IN TIME for example). but the directing and acting of this film is so superlative that it actually earns this trope, it makes it feel authentic and consequently affecting.

(He was revealed as Dr. Sheeyan at the end) 2. Teddy was uncomfortable with water throughout this movie. Nauseous in the sea, DIDN'T see the water in axe-my-husband lady's glass. It's because of his trauma of his kids drowning in WATER. 3. At the end he says, "Which would be worse? To die as a monster or to die as a good man?" This meant he had accepted what he had done and would rather be dead(lobotomised) than be alive with the guilt/knowledge of what he had done.

Death of all his children AND killing his wife is too intense for him to bear. I am not sure even if I would be able to keep my sanity in that case.

My opinion has always been that Leo was fully lucid and sane at the end. His line "is it better to live as a monster or die as a free man?" shows that he's choosing to be lobotomized because he can't live with what he did so he's choosing to die as teddy, the "good man". Another piece of evidence comes as he's walking away and Mark Ruffalo's character calls after him "Teddy" and he doesn't respond, because he is only pretending to identify as Teddy.

This is one of my all-time favorite movies, because there is so much foreshadowing and little details that you might notice until the second or even third viewing. If you pay attention to the staff in the background, you'll see that most of them break character and are visibly fed up with dealing with Andrew. Or how when Dr. Cawley was talking about the history of mental institutions, he slightly changes his tone when he says the word "drowned" because he knows it might trigger Andrew. Having the Mahler record playing in the background in Dr. Naehring's introduction scene was also deliberately done to trigger his memory of Dachau. Teddy doesn't know who he reports to, eventually threatening to report them to "Hoover's boys." Then there's all the fire VS water/fantasy VS reality symbolism going on... There's a lot more, but you should rewatch it and see what you can find!

The last line says it all. Sanity means living as a monster - living with the knowledge and guilt of what happened to his children and his wife for which he feels responsible. On the other hand, insanity creates a fictional world where he is a good guy not responsible for the death of his wife and children. So he subconsciously chooses to be insane as a way of coping. So if he sticks to insanity he can die as a good man (in his own mind). But if he regains sanity he has to cope with feeling - living - like a monster.

The ending is brilliant. On first glance, most people think that he is pretending to regress but if you dig deeper it's not as clear. One could also make the case that he had broken through in the past and regressed multiple times which is pointed out in the film. The hollywood ending is that he deliberately pretended to regress but in reality, it's rare for that to happen in a case as severe as his and most likely he really did regress. The fact that it's deliberately left open ended represents the spectator's/doctor's perspective in that no one will ever truly know. It's a brilliantly nuanced ending.

I think the fact that the doctor calls after him "Teddy!" but he doesn't reply, because he knows it's not his name, leans in favor of him knowing the truth, along with his final question about dying as a good man.

I really don't think it was open ended at all. The fact he asks whether "it's better to live as a monster or die as a good man" pretty much shows he was aware.

@MrTyler918273 2 жыл бұрын

I don't think that part is open ended. He definitely remembered what had happened at the point of surrendering to the lobotomy. The part that I think is ambiguous is whether he actually was a patient with those memories or if his 'delusion' about the island being a human testing site was actually real and that they drugged and manipulated him into submission. Nothing in the movie actually falsifies that narrative. That story simply seems more far fetched and therefore we deem it be less likely, but the whole movie still makes sense if you take that as the true story, especially considering the fact that the whole movie is told from his perspective. We the viewers are 'tricked' just as he is because we are working off of the same information.

Dennis Lehane (the author of the novel this film is based on) said, quite rightly, that Teddy/Andrew is not suicidal; he could easily have killed himself after killing his wife, but he didn't... therefore his "pretending" to regress at the end of the film to get himself lobotomized doesn't make sense. But because the film's ending makes you question if that is indeed what Teddy/Andrew is doing, Dennis Lehane was fine with it because it was ambiguous. Great reaction to an amazing film! The novel this film is based on is better, in my opinion... well worth a read! I love your channel! :)

There’s a crazy amount of subtle clues that you start to catch on multiple watches. He hates the water because of the incident with his wife. Mark ruffalos character fumbles with his gun when they get to the island, showing his inexperience handling weapons. When he’s interviewing the patients, there’s a scene where a woman take a a drink form a glass of water but because we see the scene from Leo’s perspective, the water glass disappears because he blocks it out to do his phobia of water. One of the greatest movie twists ever.

Definitely a movie that you have to see a couple times to really appreciate how good it is. I love how it feels like The Cabinet of Dr. Caligari meets Shock Corridor, which, knowing Scorsese, that was deliberate. The soundtrack is particularly superb. I especially love the use of Mahler’s Quartet for Piano and Strings in A minor. Most people complain that the ending is a little too easy to predict. It is, but it’s still a highly effective ending, and the journey to get there makes it all worthwhile.

Remember that scene, at the gates of Ashcliffe? Laeddis and Sheehan are ordered to relinquish their "firearms." Sheehan struggles to undo his holster, while Laeddis (being a marshal) does it with no problem. If you rewatch this movie, try to look at Leo's face when this happens. For a brief moment, he seems lucid, like he knows he is out of place and the something is wrong. Great acting from DiCaprio. Also, in almost all prisons and mental hospitals, prisoners and mental patients are banned from carrying matches, so that's why Laeddis has to keep asking for a light and never seems to have matches on him.

The fact that I didn't know which was real or not was a testament to the writing but also the way it was shot. The framing and the angles chosen by Scorsese gave the movie a creepy vibe. You can do story-telling without any dialogue simply by framing and lighting and close-ups and wide shots..
