I like "insanity is catching"... :D Patricia Clarkson has been offered a part. Probably the lady doctor.

Patricia's cool. She gives me the idea of Peter Dinklage as the Warden. The character must be steadily shrinking in my mind. :P Where'd you hear about this, Will?

I think it was at an unrelated casting place. The character must be steadily shrinking in my mind. :P And the Teddy/Warden conversation is conveniently taking place in a car. Hmm...

Roger Friedman says that Clarkson has been cast: And: Oscar-nominee Patricia Clarkson ("Pieces of April") is joining the cast of Martin Scorsese’s "Shutter Island" starring Leo DiCaprio, Mark Ruffalo, Ben Kingsley and Michelle Williams. Clarkson has two films at this month’s Sundance Film Festival and at least three more in the can.

Will Thanks for news of casting of Patricia Clarkson :) Always glad to hear about a 'home girl'' getting a good part ..as well as ..."congrats" to her mom who recently got re-elected to our city council :wink: So am I to understand we all agree she is going to be the 'woman in the cave ' ????

Arnzilla Thanks for reply....just wanted to make sure I wasn't on a 'different track' than the track everyone else was 'traveling on' regarding Patricia :) I think she will be great for the part....glad DiCaprio will have the opportunity to work with her.

this actress is 'fantabulous'. She was stellar in Six Feet Under, far from heaven, was seen in 'Good night and good luck' too. Look this genious actress :D (wait 10 seconds in the beginning there is sound but no image) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=l2g-b6XP63g

Oh, very nice once again. I'm thrilled with the casting!

Thank you for the updates ...so exciting this Movie ! I like the cast , and i must say , what a wonderful wallpaper , Great Job! :D

Merci "le gang" for this la-*test*-('") casting choice... and Yapi for the video. So we have ... our woman/ghost in the cave now ? Patricia seems a good choice from what I saw from the clip.

Yapi Thanks for video clip :) The film I most liked Patricia in was "Pieces of April" ...she was nominated for Oscar for her supporting performance as mother ( Katie Holmes played her daughter ) dealing with cancer = very to the point =very funny

Thanks for the news! :D Is it official? So,she is going to play Rachel Solando,right? I've always imagined that character much younger than Patricia. Anyway,she's a very good actress. Ps:great banner!! :wink:

Ilaria No , Patricia is not going to play the Rachel that favors Dolores. She is going to play the woman that Teddy encounters in the cave.
