FIRST TIME WATCHING The Shawshank Redemption (1994) REACTION | Movie Reaction

[@bradleyd6000]

48:05 And that is why people cry watching this movie. But they are tears of joy. The friendship between Andy and Red is so well done, you really understand how close they are. Have seen this movie so many times and It never gets old.

[@krisfrederick5001]

The part that got me was when Brooks is in the park, waiting for Jake. That sense of loneliness...

[@krisfrederick5001]

I love how confident Andy was by saying "There IS" something he wanted Red to find under that rock, that had no Worldly business being there...when in fact he hadn't even done it yet.

[@williamsummerson1204]

That was one of the best reactions I've seen in a while. Arguably the greatest movie ever, Morgan Freeman's performance was phenomenal I watch this movie at least 3 times a year. 😊

[@ianbentley7276]

I THINK IT'S THE GREATEST MOVIE i've seen and i'm 73 so seen plenty

"Why do they call you Red?" "Maybe because I'm Irish." In the book Red was an Irishman.

[@indridcold3762]

"Anybody get to you yet?" "Huh what do you mean?" 😂😂

[@stevep2380]

It's always interesting to watch women react to that scene. They watch a scene where a woman gets violated most are a wreck and cry. The same women watch a man get violated and the reaction is almost indifferent. "Oh they got him." Maybe it's me but I find that fascinating.

[@shainewhite2781]

The best If not the greatest motion picture of all time!

Then you obviously haven't seen the Lego batman.

2 Steven King movies in a row. Now you need to do "The Shining", "Stand By Me", "Carrie", and "Misery".

[@ericschmidt5510]

Yes gotta see Stand By Me :)

[@orangewarm1]

The shining is boring and not scary.

[@trumphatesyou]

@@orangewarm1 It's a crap movie. Don't understand why people think it's so good.

[@MoviesTubeYou0675]

Yes….. STAND BY ME. A must see.

[@Fred-vy1hm]

The dead zone and the stand are pretty good as well.

[@ericschmidt5510]

Absolutely loved your reaction!! Shawshank Redemption is a 10/10 movie IMO.

[@joerenaud8292]

Whenever people watch actors who make them fell so emotionally angry or happy, they've done their job of acting, wonderfully.

[@joedirt688]

HOPE IS A GOOD THING, MAYBE THE BEST OF THINGS!

[@shainewhite2781]

The greatest movie of all time! Nominated for 7 Oscars including Best Picture but lost to Forrest Gump which took home 6. Paul Newman, Clint Eastwood, Robert Duvall and Gene Hackman were considered for Red The Film's narrator. Tom Cruise, Kevin Costner, Johnny Depp, Charlie Sheen, and Tom Hanks were considered for Andy. The film was a box office and critical success making $73 million dollars against a $25 million dollar budget. It became an cult classic that it made it's TV Debut on TNT and TBS in 1997. It even sold 320,000 on VHS.

[@sumnerhayes3411]

Truly absurd that Shawshank and Pulp Fiction came out in the same year, and neither won Best Picture. It's like the year The Wizard of Oz, Mr. Smith Goes to Washington, Ninotchka, and Of Mice and Men all lost.

[@delg1211]

@@sumnerhayes3411 good call- there are close 2nds.. but those two are my TOP two ;)

[@lethaldose2000]

The score in Shawshank Redemption is so amazing. It speaks like another character in the movie. Especially during the intense dialogue moments. The single-note piano hits building to an eventual crescendo.

[@MikeTaylor-k9k]

Of all the reactors to this movie, and I've seen several, you are the cutest!

[@alfreddaniel1994]

There is a movie of "The Count Of Monte Christo", the book mentioned in the movie here. I highly recommend it. I'm loving your reactions, and would really like to see your reaction to that movie.

[@RG-ds8pd]

Wow you were really emotional at the final scene. Probably my favorite ending to a movie.

[@fionnmaccumhaill3257]

This was written by the same person who wrote The Green Mile. The original name was Rita Hayworth and the Shawshank Redemption. Also, the warden wasn't religious, he just hid beneath a thin veneer of religion

[@rollotomassi6232]

Same Director also, Frank Darabont

[@goldenageofdinosaurs7192]

Why would Andy try & improve the prison? Wouldn’t you want a place you were gonna be in for the rest of your life to be improved, if only a little bit?

[@exsenator1]

A few years ago I read an article about a survey and this was voted number 1 for best movie ending

[@ironfist1942]

You nailed it with this reaction. Absolutely perfect.

[@bernardsalvatore1929]

The Green Mile was an excellent adaptation of the Stephen King novel by director Frank Darabont, but in my opinion, it pales to this film by the same pair.

[@93deadpool]

I like how she was chuckling at the beginning like this was a comedy until ish got real.

[@ronpaul1082]

Please consider Stand By Me ( 1986 ) the best Stephen King movie imo

[@rollotomassi6232]

IMO it doesn't get better than this or Green Mile, but Stand By Me is up there, great charictor development, dialog, story, and acting

[@Yevgeniy-UA]

It's good, but definitely not the best

[@amigoface]

definitely checking your content in the future . great reaction . keep doing it

[@tfpp1]

38:26 - Okay okay, how often does a man really look at another man's shoes? XD

[@AlexandruCarjan]

Another really great movie that will fit your crime genre is Se7en. You will love it

[@08191906]

Dumas' The Count Of Monte Cristo is an excellent book. The movie's mention of it is a cleverly sly bit of foreshadowing.

[@darkjedi447]

Newly discovering your channel)) 1. This is one if the most beautiful movies ever made with a great message about positivity and hope 2. You have such a beautiful voice Wow!! I really liked listening to you speak 3. Would you consider reacting to an older movie like ROMAN HOLIDAY, which is just a beautiful love story with amazing actors Audrey Hepburn and Gregory Peck? I think you would love it Thanks for your fun reaction. Keep smiling 🤘 🙂

Nice reaction! You sure you haven't been doing this a long time? 😄 I wonder what the first words out of Red's mouth were when he saw Andy again...

[@craigmorris4083]

Got yourself a subscriber because of this :)

[@Otokichi786]

A movie about Hope, friendship, and The Count of Monte Cristo! The Ohio State Reformatory at Mansfield was to be demolished when Hollywood came calling. It is now a movie site and a community center. 9:06 Back in the "dark days of the cold war" our Scoutmaster described maggots found in his World War II rations as "extra protein." 9:51 Actor Mark Rolston was "Pvt. Drake," the Smartgun operator in the movie "Aliens" (1986). 13:25 Andy Dufresne, sound financial advisor since 1949. 22:57 A duet: kzbin.info/www/bejne/noOQgXyZjr2Mg5Y 25:49 "I had to come to prison to be a crook." 26:29 I have the greatest regard for GED students. 27:57 Obtuse. 32:22 Andy's goal: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Zihuatanejo 36:30 A little-known song for Andy: kzbin.info/www/bejne/a17JlKmkjql4gJI 40:20 Even one for Warden Norton: kzbin.info/www/bejne/gHWxlWtnYraEftU 42:47 Red's final statement on "rehabilitated." 47:26 This scene was added when test audiences wondered what happened to Andy and Red. A box office failure that has become a cult and popular favorite over the years.

[@johncourtright1632]

Great reaction! Don't worry about a few tears. Many of us cry along with you. There's not many movies where you cry tears of sadness in the middle (Brooks) and tears of joy at the end! Truly a masterpiece of storytelling and movie-making! Keep going. You're a natural. Subscribed. As for film recommendations, I would suggest "Arrival", an excellent movie with a great cast, led by Amy Adams (Best Actress-National Board of Review), Jeremy Renner, and Forest Whitaker. If it's time for a romance movie or two, you should react to "Meet Joe Black" (with Brad Pitt, Claire Forlani, and Anthony Hopkins), and/or "The Lake House" (with Keanu Reeves and Sandra Bullock). Both well-acted and interesting love stories with a twist.

Good job! Keep going!!

[@dave131]

Hey Lady ! Really enjoyed your reaction !! Imagine this movie ending when Andy escapes. Originally, that's where it ended. But the producers or writers ( one of them ) said you can't possibly end this movie without them reuniting. So they added that last 15 minutes or so on.

[@sumnerhayes3411]

That was the short story ending. The original movie ending was after Red repeated "I hope....I hope." during his trip south. Which still would've been an absolutely epic ending. But seeing Andy and Red reunited was so darned satisfying. I honestly don't know which is better.

[@WelshDude1984]

You are spitting image of an actress called Lucy Fallon who appeared in the UK soap Coronation street. Only she had Blonde hair and blue eyes.

HOPE is a power form of love. A swimming mouse will die after 15-20 minutes of trying to escape from an slippery walled pool. Now pick the mouse up, dry it off tell the mouse you love it. Put it back in the pool. The mouse will swim 45- 60 HOURS NOW .

[@artbagley1406]

Have no fear of crying "in front of us watchers," Ms. O. Probably 99% of us cried watching the many wonderful films Hollywood has put out through the years. We fully understand the whys and wherefores of the falling tears. Two films I'd recommend to you, if not already on your planning list, are "The Princess Bride" and "It's a Wonderful Life." Of course there are MANY MORE, but I'm sure you've been coached by many who've enjoyed your reactions. Which character do you dislike more: Percy in "The Green Mile" or the warden in "Shawshank"? There was one very brief mention by Red of his crime: murder. Yes! Andy put the letter AND SOME OF THE WARDEN'S MONEY in the box at the wall after he escaped and visited the banks. Your tears tell the filmmaker's, screenwriters', Stephen King's efforts at storytelling were SO VERY SUCCESSFUL! YAY!

[@orangewarm1]

You should do American History X and Scorsese. Goodfellas and Casino. And Mystic River.

[@rollotomassi6232]

Your 2nd movie and the reaction was wonderful, you have improved a great deal. In the Green Mile people crybecause it is so sad, in Shawshank people cry because you're so happy, Andy's Redemption is so perfect. These 2 movies are top 5 for me along with Galdiator, The last Samurai, Forest Gump, and Saving Private Ryan. BTW: Red was in for murder, they briefly mention it after Red asked Andy why he kill his wife, they never did say why he murdered his victim.

[@Justin.Franks]

The redemption was Red's. Andy was innocent, he didn't need redemption.
