The dropping of the Dirt through the trousers was something that 'Really' happened during WW-II. You should watch the movie 'The Great Escape', where they highlight how the Prisoners of War (most British, but some from other allied Countries) used to dig, and hide the dirt. for three simultaneous tunnels. That movie was made in 1963.

In my opinion they paroled Red at the end because they thought his spirit was too broken to re-offend. His "I don't give a s**t" was their cue that he didn't have any fight left in him.

Andy's method of distributing the excavated dirt was more likely a nod to the film, THE GREAT ESCAPE, with (Terence) Steve McQeen and James Garner. That was a hugely successful film in which the same method was used.

One sad shot was eventually removed from the film (but is in the Stephen King novel). Shortly after Brooks dies, the prisoners find Jake lying dead on the ground in the prison grounds. He had also been institutionalized, and with no one to feed him, he was unable to find food on his own. He died of starvation. This scene was originally supposed to be in the film, but it turns out that the scene with Brooks' pass away is emotional and sad enough, and that there is no need to add more salt to the viewer's wounds.

I think that part of the reason the warden never bothered to open the Bible was that once Andy proved himself of quoting scripture without referring to it; the warden (clearly a man of God) felt himself under pressure to “keep up” and not appear less knowledgeable than a mere prisoner.

Indeed, the film was originally intended to end with an open ending, a shot of a bus disappearing over the horizon with Morgan Freeman saying, "I hope." But the test audience rejected that ending and voted that they wanted to see Andy and Red meet. Personally, I think that was a mistake. I don't like open endings either, but there was nothing open about this one - everything was pointing to Red being successfully on his way to Andy and there was no longer any obstacle to their meeting. The shot on the beach is unnecessary. Or rather, redundant. Because the words "I hope" are strong enough in the bus scene. Red has redeemed himself from Shawshank and his crime and found faith in hope.

@Stogie2112 4 ай бұрын

I agree with what you're saying to a certain point. The scene on the beach was unnecessary in terms of reading the story. When we're reading the novella, that last image of the bus makes perfect sense. When we're reading the novella, the character of Red is dominant; it's his story. However, on the big screen, where the story is mostly a visual experience, audiences wanted to see Andy again. Even though they knew where Red was going, audiences wanted to see Andy and Red meet as free men and as brothers. When we're watching the film, the story is Andy and Red. They are inseparable.

If you like Morgan Freeman who finally got parolled at the end of the movie, try watching Glory. It's about the first African American regiment into the US Civil War. If you're more interested in the civil war, try PBS documentary Ken Burns The Civil War. It's several episodes long with famouts actors/actresses reading letters written during that time period.

Brooks killed his wife and daughter after a bad night of gambling. (I’m not judging one way or another. I just thought I might provide some background). My father was a psychologist and spent most of his career in the federal prison system. He was always very adamant that people are not sent to prison to BE punished but, rather, being in prison IS the punishment. So, he had a somewhat low opinion (I’m putting it mildly) of people who advocated torture or denying prisoners simple pleasures like television or movies. “Anyone who thinks like that should try living a weekend or just one day in a real prison”!

@Stogie2112 4 ай бұрын

Excellent post. 👍 In the case of imprisonment, the punishment consists of taking good things away from the convict: his personal freedom, human contact with his friends, family and people in general, his personal belongings, etc. His individuality is stripped away, and he becomes "Prisoner # 3578". Being put in "the Hole" may be the worst, as you are deprived of nearly all sensations. No light, no sound, no conversation, nothing.

@ptthatswhatshesaid 4 ай бұрын

Brutal to know about Brooks, but yeah, if he was there for so long I figured it would be something bad... Being in prison is not supposed to be a good experience so yeah, supposedly it IS the punishment. Torture is something quite unnecessary

About Brooks and committing Murder. If we do the math (based on what's said in the movie), he probably went to prison in between 1914 and 1919 during WW-I. At that time there was a LOT of poverty in the U.S., which resulted in a LOT of crime using deadly weapons. Imagine if brooks was a soldier who got out of the Military but could not find a job. Very frequently, armed robberies lead to murder.

@Stogie2112 4 ай бұрын

Brooks murdered his wife and child (according to the novella). He was sent to Shawshank in 1905. He told Andy this in the Library. He was released in 1955. He was an old man who had no future, no chance of starting a new career or life.

2:06 Lucy, it seems like you have the wrong idea how to use the word "cute". In this instance, you could say "he's being nice with him", or "he's being good to him", or "sympathetic to him", or even "respectful to him". To say he was being cute to him makes it sound like you are diminishing his action & its significance, because the word "cute" is usually used to describe something small & appealing in a baby-like way. For example, I moved into a small apartment that has a cute kitchen; she looked so cute when she blushed; my new puppy is so cute, etc. I hope that helps. (For what it's worth, my name is Daniel also 😋) Daniel, I wish you had at least shown the Bible with the pickaxe in it. If I'm not mistaken, Andy made the compartment for it starting at the Book of Exodus, which is the story of the Israelites struggle from slavery to freedom. 😊 Cheers! 🍻

@@ptthatswhatshesaid Thank you for listening to my criticism and not getting offended. So many people often do. As for the edit, you cut out most of Brook's part when he leaves prison. We didn't get to see your reaction to Brooks struggling with the outside world which takes away from the impact of his death. You also cut out most of the parts of Red's life after prison, which mirrored Brooks until he made the decision to go find Andy. But the worst one was Andy's escape. You cut out almost the whole bank scene which is one of the best parts of the movie where you find Andy using his false identity with which he takes $300K of the warden's money. There were many other moments but I would have to watch the reaction again to give you a whole rundown. With all that said, I know that KZfaq can be a pain and makes it difficult to upload these reactions. If you leave too much stuff in, they will give you a copyright strike.
