This image is from Martin Scorsese's Shutter Island. This is one of the first scenes where Leonardo DiCaprio is first introduction. He is acting as a US Marshall. The diffused/ambient style lighting gives it a very realistic style. In this psycho thriller, the appearance of reality is very important.
I agree! This movie is one of my favorites too. The thing that I notice the most about this frame's lighting is that everything in the picture is clearly visible in terms of light, and the frame's color is very cold, helping symbolize that the place they are going to is in a sense cold and dark and dangerous.
