As both sides race to identify their mole, Billy and Colin become increasingly involved in each other's lives, and the line between good and evil begins to blur.The Departed is a complex and suspenseful film that explores themes of loyalty, betrayal, and the corrupting influence of power. It is also a visually stunning film, with Scorsese's signature use of close-ups and slow-motion to create a sense of tension and claustrophobia #royal_film
