Willie was a true friend. Even though they escaped, and he’s stuck there, he never snitched out of jealousy. I respect that.

I think Ray and Claude told him about their escape plan and even offered to bring him in on it. But Willie having been institutionalized young and not wanting to slow his friends down on account of him being wheelchair bound turned them down. I believe another reason told Willie because they didn't want him to spend the remainder of his life mourning the tragic deaths of his last two friends and at least have a bit of solace knowing that they are alive and free.

Assuming they were in their 20’s when they got convicted, that would put them in their 80’s or 90s, which is what they looked like at the game.

It was Nominated for Best Makeup at the Oscars in 2000, but it lost to some British Comedy Musical called 'Topsy-Turvy'. :( But it is also worth mentioning that Rick Baker has a Record of Seven Oscars in that category. He retired in 2015 due to the Studios that tried to commission him wanted less practical and more CGI to cut costs, and rather than bend to their will, he refused and left the Industry.

True, their youth was stolen from them. And that bummed me out for years. But as I get older, I think the message was that they were truly lucky in that they spent their entire lives with their BEST FRIEND, and regardless of where (or what hell you're in) if you have your BEST friend with you until the day you die, that's something that most of us (even those of us who are 'free' in the world) will never have. I like to think it's about the gift of friendship and how our lives truly have meaning if we have a friend to share it with. :D

My Quote: "We are all born into the USA of today, not having a clue how great we made her yesterday." The 90's were actually a big downturn for us in the USA, especially economically as we shipped our free enterprise to communist china starting in the 80's (My graduation HS time). Now, after studying our history from places that do not hate the USA,---I wish I was a 20 year old engineer in the roaring 20's, (1920's in the USA). Did you know we had over 2000 people with little companies trying to make a car between 1900 and 1920? Just in that industry alone, after we got the electrical grid set up---was one heck of a exciting time for real, big, opportunity. It was called "individual liberty with free enterprise in our hands", (before government our federal took it all over, along with our opportunity),---and nothing was ever so wonderful in the history of mankind.

My theory is sadder though. I think they never escaped, there are so many things that make it impossible to do. The man narrating saw how moved the young guys were so he kinda implied they may have escaped. And the ending in the stadium is showing how it could be, or how it is with them being free now in spirit.

Yeah i agree with you, and earlier in the movie, they fantasize about Rays Boom Boom Room to escape the harsh realities of life, probably same escape willie offered the gravediggers

This could be a fantasy ending just like when they were laying down day dreaming about the boom boom room maybe the truth was too sad to accept and they really are in those caskets instead of escaping “they gave us life and that’s what they’re taking”

Basically, it's exactly what Red said in The Shawshank Redemption....they send you here for life, that's exactly what they take, the part that counts anyway. And that's precisely what the state of Mississippi did to Ray and Claude. In the end they're free, but the best years of their lives were stolen from them unjustly, much like Andy in Shawshank. Andy though was around 50 by the time he escaped, so he could probably still have a good 20, 30, maybe even 40 years ahead of him to make up for lost time. Ray and Claude were in their 90's when they broke out. At best they might have 5 years left, but I think it's more likely they'll pass on in 2.
