I wish I could erase the memory of this film, and watch it again for the 1st time
-
If you watch the movie, you’ll see that when they release Brooks, the camera faces at his front with the jail behind him, but for Red it shows his back, with the outside world in front. This symbolizes that Brooks’s home was Shawshank, and that Red will make it on the outside.
-
So... Morgan wasnt a freeman until the end of the movie
-
When Andy turns the volume up instead of turning the music off is so satisfying to me
-
If this film is only a 9.3...then I'm not entirely sure if a 10 will ever exist.
-
",how often do you look at a man's shoes?" Has always stuck with me
-
My hearts breaks every time when poor Brooks walks out of prison,he looks so lost and sad that he is leaving “home” with nowhere to go and no family or friends on the outside 😥
-
Best line by Andy : “The funny thing is, on the outside I was an honest man,straight as an arrow, I had to come to prison to be a crook “ 😂 Best movie to this day for me.🙏🏾
-
To be accurate, Red's not the only guilty man in Shawshank. He's just the only guy who admits his guilt.
-
It is one of the greatest films I've watched. Whenever I watch it, I kind of feel timeless, and lost in an era, carried away. It's a unique feeling that no other film has given me
-
A line that always sticks out to me is when Brooks says, "The world went and got itself in such a damn hurry." I couldn't express how beyond truthful that is.
-
I always liked the scene in Andy's cell when they're trying to figure out how he escaped; because over the cell door there's a picture of Einstein sticking out his tounge. It's like Andy's subtle way of showing how much smarter he is than the warden thought and was having the last laugh.

Fun fact: Clint Eastwood, Harrison Ford, Paul Newman, Gene Hackman, Robert Redford and Robert Duvall were considered for the part of Red. In the original novel, Red is a middle-aged white Irishman with graying red hair. However, Frank Darabont always had Morgan Freeman in mind for the role, because of his authoritative presence, demeanor, and deep voice. Red's reply, "Maybe it's because I'm Irish," to Andy's inquiry about his nickname was kept in the film as a joke.
-
It pains me to think that Brooks was released from a prison to an even bigger prison. RIP Old Man...
-
The twist for me was when the warden killed the thief guy
-
It was really heartbreaking when that guy shot Tommy 😔

I am 22 years old and just watched Shawshank for the first time in my life, alone on the couch with a bowl of noodles. For those saying they wish they could re-watch it like it was their first time.. I understand now. I have NEVER experienced such deep emotion and captivation towards a film. I’m a changed person because of this story
