That you hated the Warden shows the depth of the written character and the phenomenal acting by that actor. This is one of the best acted movies I have ever seen. Each character was more than whT they seemed and we got glimpses of those differences, just enough to give hope or misery.. it is one of my favs for sure

A lot of people don't realize Stephen King writes anything other than horror.: A mesmerizing tale of unjust imprisonment and offbeat escape, Rita Hayworth and Shawshank Redemption is one of Stephen King's most beloved and iconic stories, and it helped make Castle Rock a place readers would return to over and over again.

Stephen King was in a grocery store once and a woman almost ran into him with her cart. She looked up at him and said, "Hey I know you. You're the Stephen King guy who writes those scary books! That may be for some people but it's not for me. I prefer more uplifting books like the Shawshank Redemption." King smiles and says, "I wrote that one too." The woman shakes her head, "no you didn't!" and leaves. 🤣

He writes in several genres and does them all exceptionally well. One of my favorites is a high fantasy novel called Eyes of the Dragon. When Game of Thrones came out, I hoped they would look at Eyes of the Dragon, but they haven't so far. After what they did to The Dark Tower, a high fantasy/western novel series, I think maybe it's a good thing. Adaptions of his movies really are a crap shoot. haha

I think it the excitement only a free man can feel, a free man at the start of a long journey whose conclusion is uncertain. I hope I can make it across the border.

A bunch of friends and I went to see this when it first came out. One of the guys was really moved by this saying it was the most beautiful movie he had ever seen. My roommate is 72 just got out about a year ago. He had been in the Texas prison system since he was 30 years old. When he was about 20, he was sentenced to life in prison for multiple armed robberies and attempted murder. He was paroled after 7 years but a couple of years later he was pulled over for drunk driving. The cop saw a pistol lying on the front seat and of course arrested him. They immediately revoked his parole and he spent the next 42 years behind bars.Oh, the stories he could tell! There are so many things that are new to him! I've done my best to reorient him to life in the 21st century. When he got his smartphone I helped him set it up and he was amazed at some of the things it could do, like googling things watching movies etc. He's doing well, and got his social security and VA pension and is thinking about getting a car. I told him no drunk driving and no pistols!

So well done to everyone making this classic.

Brooks had arrived at Shawshank in 1906; 50 years later, he's released into a totally alien world. It's been 2 world wars and a change in culture that includes women being more independent and actually going out and holding jobs. It's so different, and Brooks has no family or friends outside of prison, to help him adjust. Now that you've seen this non-horror prison story written by Stephen King, you should now watch another Stephen King prison period piece set in the American South in 1935. I promise you, it's even better!

The interior (cell blocks) is in a different location though. The tunnel was a mock-up they built and can be viewed at the prison in Mansfield. It is a life-sized mock-up. The tree under which the Red located the stone and Andy's letter was on a farm in Mansfield. It suffered storm damage and had to be removed. The wood was cut and sold to woodworkers everywhere. I'm proud to say I obtained some small pieces of this wood and made 5 pens out them.

Good Day, Kabir. Although set in Maine, the prison used was the Ohio State Reformatory in Mansfield, Ohio. The large main building and Cell Block 1 are now a Museum. They offer tours, can be used for special occasions, and offer overnight cell accommodations for the brave. ( haunted ) The street scenes were primarily N. Main St where the shop owners agreed to have their stores redone to fit the time period. Many still look the same. The halfway house is the Bissman Building, and still looks the same today. (It was a beer distributor, hence the name "Brewery") The store was the E and B Market on 4th Street which has been torn down. I was fortunate to be an extra con in the yard scenes. The premiere was held at Mansfield's Renaissance Theatre, a restored 1929 movie palace, before New York and Los Angeles. I volunteered working the theatre restoration. The prison was also used in the movie "Tango & Cash” and was the Russian cell block in "Airforce One". An interesting side note: In the bad winters, crows from 7 or 8 counties move into Mansfield by the hundreds due to large granaries that used to be between town and the prison. Brook's crow was a natural. The passage of time from the unfiltered Chesterfields to the filtered cigarettes offered Tommy by the warden, and the subtle aging of everyone is superb. Many people miss the subtlety of when Brooks left the prison, you see the prison through the gates, and when Red left you are looking forward over the fields toward the town. And they don't notice when the warden opens the Bible and finds the cut out, that it is the book of "Exodus"! I am 75 now with Parkinson's and don't get to attend movies very often. I enjoy the reaction videos on KZbin.

So glad you loved this film. It is easy to see a "director's cut" if you want. The film is supposed to end when Red is on the bus, after his "I hope" monologue. Frank Darabont wanted to end the film with the audience "hoping" that Red and Andy reunited - after all, "hope is a good thing" But, American test audiences wanted everything spoonfed to them and demanded a "happy ending", so the studio demanded that final beach scene be tacked on. Still a magnificent film but I think I prefer the director/writer's version..

"Hope is a good thing, and no good thing ever dies", what a feeling Redd felt at that sentence, and a great feeling we all need, never give in, have some hope to forge through the pain, the meaning for life....it gives you a purpose...and through this story, it was beautifully expressed. 💙🌺

I love psychological thrillers, the movie creeped me out but I loved it. Here are some other good thrillers - "The Call" with Hailie Berry, "Misery" with Kathy Bates and James Caan and of course "Silence of the Lambs" with Sir Anthony Hopkins and Jodie Foster. Another good one to watch on your own time is "Knock Knock" with Keanu Reeves.

Crazy that this movie didn’t get the appreciation it deserved at the time it was in theaters

Prison is located in Mansfield Ohio, was the Ohio Reformatory, now it's a museum.

Andy was imprisoned in 1947. He was there until the late 60's.

And Andy went in in 1947, and asked for Rita Heyworth in 1949. Brooks arrived in 1905 and was there 50 years, so he got out in '55. I think it's possible that as a reactor and thinking all the time about what to say, and then talking over some of the dialogue, you're going to miss a lot of details.

Prisons these days are much nicer than you might think, they can even have tablets and flat screen tvs if they’re lucky, but you normally need headphones to hear any sound so they can’t be used as a distraction. Techmoan did a good video on prison tech a while ago.

"That car looks really old. What is it, the 70's or something?" More like 23 years prior (not long after World War 2), or the difference between 2022 and 1999! Time is strange that way, I suppose.

Those cars were still around in the 70s, but they were mostly worn-out beaters driven by low-income and young drivers. Just like today you still see some tattered survivors from the 1990's. Plus to be fair, some British cars from the 1970s more closely resembled our 1940s cars than any of our 1970s cars ever did. You can even see some Rolls from later than that, which still strongly resemble our 1940s models. And that was a feature, rather than a drawback, since our 1940s models were always regarded as way more solid than anything made since. An uncle of mine had one. One day he knocked over a telephone pole with it, but surprisingly, he was still able to drive it home.

This movie holds the #1 spot of _Best films of all times_ on imdb. Has held the spot for several years. The year of its release, it got nominated for several Academy Awards. Didn’t win any however. Lost out to another film of that year: *Forrest Gump.* Your view of inmates are somewhat innocent. Nothing wrong with that. But there are vast differences between european and american views on prisons, and serving time. Not to mention the time in which this film is situated.

Loved your reaction! This movie is damn near perfect in every way. I always found it really interesting that they avoid telling the audience what the actual crimes of the inmates were. It lets the audience connect to the characters and see them as just people passed what their crimes were. Just think, you never learn what Brooks’ crimes actually were and so his end breaks you. The only other crimes that are explicitly stated are Tommy and Red who’s stories are about reform and growth. It’s just a nice reminder to the audience about empathy.

This movie was filmed at Mansfield prison in Mansfield Ohio just a few hours from my city. They shut the prison down just beg they started filming this movie and they allowed good behavior prisoners to stay behind as extras. One of my uncles was actually visible in a scene in the movie, obviously uncredited.

I know my comments are very late: in the 1970s, I use to watch MORGAN FREEMAN, play Easy Reader, on ELECTRIC COMPANY. This came on after Sesame Street. A pbs channel, here in the states.
