[@leopaelinck6698]

[@bjsr126]

I personally don't think he hid the pick inside the bible. It just makes so much more sense to hide it behind the poster, and Andy was so much smarter than any of us. I feel he purposely carved that pick slot in the bible when putting it in the safe, purely because of the "salvation is within" line. A deep irony.

[@addisonevans8086]

I think that’s a cool idea!

[@mattyHi1892]

He hid it in the Bible before the hole was made. Remember when he was carving his name in the wall. That’s when he knew he could dig the hole.

[@Megan-vn3yt]

I saw someone else comment that the reason why he probably kept it in the bible is that on the off chance they did find the hole , he would still have the pick axe to try again with.

[@MrMojo23100]

But he would have needed a place to hide it before he started digging the hole. He couldn't hide it behind the poster before the hole existed and his cell would have been searched before he started.

[@lkgrave4959]

I believe that. Besides the hammer would have added more weight to the Bible. Something Norton would have noticed immediately.

[@haldundere5865]

This scene is incredibly well written. Andy manipulating the Warden by just praising him with that passage is genius.

[@joeswanson733]

i always would like to imagine several fan theories. 1.) andy was incredibly intelligent hence making VP at a bank at the age of 30 during the era when seniority still meant something. (well this isn't a theory red in teh movie said andy was a young banker) 2.) andys ability to maintain cool, keep his composure, endure the hardships of prison life, given his age he probably served in WW2 as a army or navy officer given his educational background. 3.) andy is just 10 steps ahead of everyone else his ability to manipulate individuals without them even knowing it that benefits andys survival in the prison... that's some next level stuff.

[@notiitans]

Was he praising the Warden, or warning the warden? “Keep watch because you dont know when the master of the house is coming”; obviously the warden thinks Andy is saying “stay on your toes because you never know when the Warden will show up.” What Andy really is saying is “Watch out, I am in charge here, and when I want to, I will bring this whole place down.” Warden cannot fathom a prisoner is the one who is actually in charge. But as Andy is innocent and literally everyone else is a criminal, Andy is the actual Master of the house. As the movie progresses Andy set the Warden up to go to jail, and walk out with the Wardens money.

[@davecrupel2817]

The ironic thing is, that line applied to Andy more than it ever applied to the warden. He was the light of the inmates' lives in there.

[@luckyspurs]

Of all the amazing things in the film, the fact Andy knew the Warden's fake religousness and ego means he wouldn't open the bible but would have to be seen to have it memorised, is among the absolute best. Incredible little moment to recall back to later.

[@joshuapaine2886]

found this comment while looking at indiana jones music: The "Grail Theme motif" is copied note for note, and is used twice by composer Thomas Newman in the movie The Shawshank Redemption. The first instance is at the end of the scene where Warden Norton supervises the guards tossing Andy's cell. The Warden leaves the cell with Andy's Bible, and the theme plays when the warden hands the Bible back to Andy and says "Salvation is found within." The second instance of the theme is when Andy is in the Warden's office, and sees the sign hanging on the wall that says "His judgment cometh and that right soon."

[@dallas5609]

[@oscargermaine9221]

The master of the house line has so many meanings. It could be interpreted as Andy must beware of his tunnelling because he does not know when the warden or his guards might show up. It can also be meant as subtle threat to be warden as Andy knows what he’s doing and to treat him with civility or he’ll expose his secrets after he escapes. The salvation lies within line could mean the rock hammer inside the bible but also the hope that compels andys desire to escape, his reminders of the outside world such as the music and the beer. I like the think that’s what compelled Andy do both of those things

[@streetlawyer]

"salvation lies within" Andy when talking about music: "it's in here (head), and in here (heart). They can't get that. Haven't you ever felt that way about music? You need it so you don't forget. That there are places in the world not made of stone. That there's something inside that they can't get to, that they can't touch. That's yours."

He may have left the hammer behind the poster, instead of putting it back in the bible?

[@emailjwr]

YES!!! i had this exact thought years ago ... you would obviously put the hammer in the hole because if the hole gets discovered, you're screwed anyway. the hammer in the bible makes for the nice ironic twist of 'salvation lies within' though similarly, andy would never wear the warden's shoes to his cell on his last night. it's incredibly risky because if any guard or inmate looked at his shoes for a moment and called him out on it, his entire scheme would likely be foiled after 17 years of effort. instead, he would save up a few bucks over the years, and buy a cheap pair of shoes the morning after escaping. much smarter plan.

First watching it, I found it a little weird that Andy was quoting the Gospels but only had his book open to Genesis. But I didn't think anything of it, until rewatching it of course

[@harrydrake4173]

Why is that weird?

[@TARINunit9]

Harry Drake The Gospels are clear on the other side of the book. You know, the pages that he had to ear up to fit his hammer in

[@varric]

You're asuming that this is the first time that Andy reads the book.

[@shanewalton3361]

The hammer was hidden in the book of Exodus and was hiding that fact by reading from Genesis

Tears off the Rita Hayworth poster; there's a 1977 Farah Fawcett poster under it.

Get Andy in a poker tournament. He’d bluff anyone... along with that ace in his bible

[@wgaston254]

The way they used the Bible to depict one another. Beware of the master always be on guard. Then the warden whose so consumed within himself believed he ruled the world. That’s why this is my favorite movie.

[@Bubblegumsh1]

In 1:05 when Warden and Andy are talking about the bible, it just totally made me think of two nerds talking about a sci fi game or something idek

[@ianfortuna9385]

One of the best movies ever made cleverly put together

[@Paul91-]

0:23-0:27, 1:04- 1:07, 1:15-1:23 and 2:30. That's an awful lot of foreshadowing.

"Salvation lies within." The hammer inside the Bible. What a hint! Even the language is figurative.

[@THE-HammerMan]

Maybe lower the sound a bit... I was still able to almost hear them speaking!

[@modalmixture]

“Wow, this Bible feels suspiciously heavy, perhaps I’ll just riffle through the pa-“ THUNK

[@stotty0191]

Just realised Andy's 'favourite' passage actually mirrored the scene... 'Watch therefore, for ye know now when the master of the house cometh'... after Red told him about the surprise inspections, he was just waiting for the warden to come. If he hadn't read any passages from the bible, the warden upon testing him may have opened the bible to read from it. Salvation truly lay within.

[@tombo1984]

We all know what's behind the poster and in the good book! Makes the scene all the better!

[@ricomajestic]

Yea but not the very first time you watched the film! You had no clue!

[@lJADU]

“Salvation lies within.” Little did he know...

[@Crysisplaya]

Rewatching this it’s if not the most tense scene in the entire movie
