19) Chuck in Shutter Island

Chuck, Teddy’s partner in Shutter Island, is a multi-layered character whose personality is more than what meets the eye. At once calm, he appears mysterious, yet through his verbal intelligence, he comes to the forefront and articulates, most succinctly, the emotional distress and psychological horror experienced by the main character. Initially seen as a good friend to Teddy, he later reveals himself as his psychiatrist. His ability to shock the audience allows him to steal the limelight. He is integral in building suspense and leading to a cathartic release of emotions.
