No, I meant the viewing audience thinking Russell or Leo were sane and fine, when in the end, you find out they are really the crazy ones. That part of the movie is what I was talking about. Not what you speak of. They are very different in that respect. "A Beautiful Mind" is based on a true story whereas "Shutter Island" is not.
In "A Beautiful Mind", I did not suspect for a minute that Russell was the crazy one. It blew my mind, when in the middle of the movie, you find that out he is. But, with Leo, I had already figured out what was going on, very early on in the movie, due to seeing "A Beautiful Mind." That is what I meant. Too similar in that respect.
