I was about to say, if you're already crying after the roof scene you've got a journey ahead of you! ;-) Another Stephen King masterpiece!

[@DeusExMachina50]

The film was based on a Stephen King novella, but the screenplay was written by Frank Darabont.

[@vovindequasahi]

@@DeusExMachina50 I am sorry. Frank Darabont deserves just as much credit, absolutely! Everyone involved in this movie deserves big time credit!

[@DeusExMachina50]

@@vovindequasahi Agreed. Great story by King, and a masterpeice of a film by Darabont!

[@vovindequasahi]

@@DeusExMachina50 Truly is! When all the stars are turned favorably in your direction, great works can happen!

[@LockeDemosthenes2]

This has the best example of foreshadowing in any movie ever. When Andy is talking about hope and Red calls it "a shitty pipe dream", and at the end Andy literally crawls thorough a shit covered pipe in order to escape to freedom.

[@RB747domme]

SPOILER!! Sorry, had to day it.

[@Kenny-ep2nf]

there was a deleted scene where Red was laughing his head off after the warden uncovered the hole Andy made in his cell, then it shows Red in solitary because the warden felt insulted at being laughed at

[@scottarooni]

"Hope is a good thing, maybe the best of things, and no good thing ever dies." I love this movie and I love your reaction. I'm so glad that it gave you a good feeling all over your body. It is about hope, friendship, faith and perseverance. I wish you and everyone many blessings, peace and love for 2022! By the way, the last poster Andy had on his wall was of Raquel Welch in the movie "One Million Years, B.C." The warden called her "fuzzy britches" because she was wearing caveman clothes made out of animal fur. LOL Raquel Welch is 81 years today (born September 5, 1940), and she still looks fantastic!

[@GatBlackistan]

Great pick, Scott!

[@flibber123]

A subtle thing at the beginning of the movie that is actually significant is Andy's demeanor at his trial. He comes across as kind of cold and condescending. it's why his wife cheated on him, it's partly why he gets convicted and gets such a harsh sentence and why he has a hard time with some of the inmates in prison. On the other hand, it's also why he's able to adapt to prison life and why he's able to carry out a long term escape plan.

[@catfishandcoleslaw]

I have been waiting on this particular movie for you to react to since you started doing movies. The reaction was simply amazing, and more than I could have ever hoped for. After seeing many great movies, wouldn’t you agree this has to be top 3- if not the greatest movie of all time?

[@cpmf2112]

The warden didn't need to look inside the Bible because he had it memorized. Oddly, many people who memorize and quote the Bible don't seem to follow it very well. -_-

[@ravenlunatic8]

Well said!!

[@scarfhs1]

Thank goodness for that!

[@davidcooks5265]

He broke all the msg 😢

[@rnw2739]

Probably THE best reaction of any film or anything on KZbin ever. How invested you get in the characters is so heartwarming and I almost got upset with you when you were frightened that Andy was going to kill himself - even though I've seen the film a million times and knew full well that he doesn't! Xxx

[@dakritic]

You must have not seen her reaction for “Saving Private Ryan.” It will break your heart.

[@orangewarm1]

how do you determine what a good reaction is?

[@rnw2739]

@@orangewarm1 Well, for me it is someone who actually WATCHES the film as K.S.O does, becomes invested in the characters and reacts to their situations rather than alot of so called 'reactors' who cant watch a single scene without constantly looking to camera and trying to be funny and cracking some feeble jokes and in so doing, miss dialogue or plot points of the film and then go on to ask why a certain character is doing this or why has this happened... I'd have thought it was fairly self explanatory.

[@jock244u1]

RNW you couldn't have explained my feelings about this reaction any better! SincerelyKSO, I quickly hit that SUBSCRIBE button. Your emotional depth and intelligence takes us on a journey, and Im here for it!

[@freshoftheoven965]

Her reaction was dumb lol ,she's not very bright 😂

[@Llanchlo]

feeling my years when a reactor asks "who's Raquel?" (Welch). One of the all time iconic movie posters.

[@garryiglesias4074]

Who's Samantha Fox ?

[@celinhabr1]

I got emotional all over again watching you react to this brilliant movie. Thank you for your raw, fantastic honest reactions.

[@zzzroxyzzz]

You have such a big heart this one might break you in a good way lol

[@jeffking887]

Brooks’ death is one of the saddest scenes on film. The score just rips me up.

[@TangoEliott]

This is in my top 5 movies of all time. A magnificent movie.

[@bluesilvahalo3576]

Your reactions were everything I knew they would be and more. Watching you made me feel how I did when I first saw this years ago. Goosebumps again 🥰

[@traci4187]

One of the best movies ever. Whenever it happens to come on TV (yes, I still have cable), I will stop anything I am doing to watch it.

[@chipsthedog1]

I'm sure someone else has pointed it out but remember when Red said Freedom was just a shitty pipe dream? Then Andy escapes through a shitty pipe! Great story great reaction

[@etc7070]

Seems that no matter how many times I watch this movie, I learn some new little symbolism that I didn't pick up on before. Thank you for pointing out the "shitty pipe"! LOL

[@Jonni1027]

Wow…after seeing this movie countless times I never noticed that before.. thanks ❤️

[@somethingyousaid5059]

This is probably the best youtube movie reaction video that I've ever watched. No doubt it was your irrepressible laughter, tears, and deep analysis throughout that made it so. That, and also the fact that it's one of my very favorite movies. Thank you, and my best to you.

[@ScenecrlyK.S.O.]

I appreciate it

[@gluuuuue]

"Fish" is a slang term meaning something like new bait, or fodder, when fish are caught and brought in they're live but effectively helpless and to be taken by customers. So "fresh fish" is like "fresh meat".

[@mil2k11]

Insanely great movie. It always hangs right around the top-5 I've ever seen. I read King's "Different Seasons" a few times while in elementary school. I was really excited to see "Stand By Me" come out while in high school. This one came out something like ten years later. A super adaptation of a short story to a 2-1/2 hour film. I know nobody who's said they didn't like this movie. Closest thing I've seen to a flawless film.

[@st0n3p0ny]

Crazy that nobody has done Apt Pupil.

[@fredscribner3688]

Apt pupil was made into a movie in 1998 starring Ian Mckellan (gandolf) as nazi.

[@johncampbell756]

@@st0n3p0ny Reacted to or filmed? It might not be on a streaming service as it seems that is the best was to get the footage.

[@professionalvampire1]

Apt Pupil has been made into a movie, but I will never watch it. That story left scars on my psyche that will never heal. The only story that hasn't been adapted (to my knowledge, anyway) is "The Breathing Method" - probably because it's just too weird.

[@st0n3p0ny]

@@professionalvampire1 The Breathing Method, IMO, was far more disturbing. I'd recommend watching Apt Pupil, it's tame compared to the book. And it's fantastic.

[@Barb5001]

One thing that makes this movie work so well is you are made to believe that Ellis Boyd and Andy Dufresne had become such great friends it is not just a prison movie. it also shows that people can become real friends regardless of race.

[@Shax22132]

One of the many impressive things about Andy's escape plan is that he never breathed a single word of it to anyone, ever, not in the entire time he was there, not even to his best friends. Everyone was completely blindsided by it.

[@LittleBlueOwl318]

Everyone looks at the warden's face when the rock goes through the poster... but check out Redd's! He had NO idea and when he and the warden make eye contact it's obvious to the warden that Redd was honestly just as surprised as he was.

[@memphistim2001]

One of my favorite little details in this movie- the chapter of the Bible where the hammer is hidden- Exodus.

[@rickardroach9075]

Or the Book of Revalation, for “Armageddon outa here!”

[@ernestitoe]

Zihuatanejo, Mexico, is down the Pacific coast road, 1700 miles south of San Diego. From Portland, Maine, it's 3100 miles. The population of Zihuatanejo is now 125,000, but probably was less in 1966. Just in case anyone was curious.

[@DanielOrme]

Another beautiful reaction! My favorite subtle clue to what was going to happen: "The Count of Monte Cristo" in the prison library. Andy even points out that it's about a prison break! Like "It's a Wonderful Life," this movie was praised and even Oscar-nominated but not a big hit when it was released. And, similarly, it was really discovered when it started to show up on television. Soon it was at or near the top of everybody's favorite movie list.

[@rxtsec1]

Yeah some consider it losing to Forrest gump a snub. I don't consider it a snub though I think shawshank is better

[@bradleyhart2492]

I read somewhere, that the producers figured the movie didn't go over very well in the theaters because of the name of the movie. I don't know how accurate that is, but I just thought I'd mention it.

[@mistileavell4256]

Your reaction when the warden threw the rocks at the poster, made my heart smile! Shawshank is one of my favorite Morgan Freeman movies!! I’m so glad you enjoyed it!!♥️

[@LittleBlueOwl318]

Everyone looks at the warden's face when the rock goes through the poster... but check out Redd's! He had NO idea and when he and the warden make eye contact it's obvious to the warden that Redd was honestly just as surprised that Andy had escaped as he was.

[@ScalexCzech]

Another amazing detail - when Red comes to the tree and the wall at the end of the film, there is a harmonica in the music. It's the only time (other than that one note in Redding's cell) that the harmonica is heard in the film.

[@davidmichaelson1092]

Love this movie. I saw it when it first came out...I just needed something to do one day and had no idea what to expect. I was blown away. Your reaction is a fascinating mix of sharp understanding and naivete. Ultimately you get everything and comment sharply on it even if it at first seems like you are naïve about what is happening. To me that means you understand life but don't lose your positive approach to life.

[@ScenecrlyK.S.O.]

Thank you Darling, Happy New Yr

[@carlmildner859]

You never fail to give wonderful reviews … your crys of “oooo”, at various revelstions - priceless my gal

[@williamsummerson1204]

Probably the best reaction to a movie that I've ever seen. Your emotions throughout this movie nearly left me speechless. This is a very special film and thank you for sharing it with us. 🙏💙

[@joshgreiner2599]

The "Maybe because I'm Irish" joke is a nod to the book, where the character is, in fact, Irish.

[@danh8804]

Like, I hate the stress it put you in to believe Andy was going to kill himself, but I"m so glad you did anyway because the payoff is so much stronger if you don't suspect the escape

[@nrgmanifest]

Your setup is awesome. I love the way you pause at certain spots of the film and breakdown your thoughts and feelings. And I love the way you don't hold back. We love to hear it. You are really immersed in the stories and your recollection and attention to detail is on point. Subbed.

I have seen this movie so many times I can quote lines before they are said. KSO, your reaction is the first one I have seen where I got close to reliving my theater experience. Your crying choked me up as if I was seeing the movie for the first time; your elation lifted me up. Hope is a good thing. Thank you for this experience. Wishing you health and abundance for the new year.

[@katec8796]

You have hands down the best reaction to this film I've ever seen - so completely honest and intuitive - it made it just as moving seeing it through your eyes as it did watching it for the first time years ago ;)

[@johnnym7575]

I'm so glad you enjoyed this. I was 17 when it came out and went to the cinema with friends to see it. It wasn't my choice and I knew nothing about it going in. A couple of hours later I had cried so many tears and discovered a movie I would enjoy many times in the years to come. Thank you for sharing your time and your thoughts with us.

To answer a question you asked: I don’t know completely myself, but I’ve heard new prisoners(even today) are called "fresh fish". They are "reeling in" the new fish that they’ve caught. That’s what I get from it anyways.

[@normie2716]

I've found it really fun watching people react to this movie, and I've seen a bunch. But I had to drop in here, because this is, without question the best reaction I've seen. Your investment into the characters and genuine emotion made this a real joy to watch. So, I just wanted to say, thank you for doing it.

[@sdkelmaruecan2907]

You should really specialize in feel-good emotional movies, seriously... forget about the thriller genre watching you getting overwhelmed by a classic like this is a real delight.

[@meanmax9663]

When Andy's Bible is opened to reveal where the rock hammer had been hidden, it is opened to the book of Exodus. I love it.

[@jhamptonjr]

I saw Burgess Meredith in hundreds of roles since I first saw him in the Twilight Zone where he is alone after the world is destroyed in a nuclear holocaust, wiping humanity off the face of the Earth. He was a librarian in that one too, and was happy despite being alone because he had thousands of books to read anytime. Then, one day, he stepped on his glasses, shattering the glass. The last scene in the episode shows him crawling among the rubble of civilization, stumbling and craying "Noooo...Noooo". That episode I saw when I was 4 years old, and it will never leave my mind. And here in Shawshank Redemption, I think he gave he best performance ever in any role. Man, I miss those old guys. RIP Brooks. The Birdman of Shawshank. And your reaction was simply golden! I cried a few tears along with you on this one and couldn't wait for you to see these guys get their comeuppance! You are a beautiful, intelligent, caring soul and I'm glad to have found you. #PeaceAndLove to you and yours!

[@scottarooni]

Burgess Meredith is a fine actor, but the role of Brooks in "Shawshank Redemption" was played by James Whitmore. Mr. Whitmore also starred in the 1954 sci-fi classic "Them," about giant ants invading Los Angeles, as Sgt. Ben Peterson, as well as the judge who must determine whether or not Barbra Streisand is competent enough to stand trial in the courtroom drama "Nuts" (1987).

[@jhamptonjr]

@@scottarooni oh my God! You are completely right. I seem to always get those two guys mixed up! Now I'm going to have to look up that Twilight Zone episode to see which one of them was in it! Thanks brother! Happy New Year!

[@NocturnEternal]

All the emotions you went through are proof as to why the Shawshank redemption is one of the best films of all time. It is without a doubt the biggest roller coaster movie you could ever be on. And how the movie wraps up everything was done beautifully. I have watched all of your previous reactions and you now have a new subscriber from me.

5:30 The song was probably "Put The Blame on Mame," from GILDA (1946), which is the same film shown in the prison theater later in the movie. Rita was a famous Hollywood redhead in the 1940s, in dramas and musicals. She briefly married Orson Welles, but both were too volatile for that to work out for long.

This is such a beautiful movie & your reaction was so wonderful🙂

[@zoomkaboom1]

Love your reaction and analysis about the rock hammer being in the Bible. Many people are like the warden, they know scripture and know christian traditions,....but dont really KNOW Christ himself. Which is the only way to salvation. This movie has amazing Christian symbolism if you look carefully. The biggest reveal at the end is symbolic. When Andy, dressed in white, is cleaning a boat at the edge of the sea. Just like Jesus in the Bible. and Red is walking towards him,.....meaning that Red got saved. He found hope/God.

[@minty_Joe]

Notice that the outline of the rock hammer is hidden inside the bible starting in the book of Exodus. And when Andy's cell was being searched for contraband, the warden's holding onto the bible, Andy's appearing nervous, hoping he doesn't open the book to find the rock hammer.

[@DinoNardelli]

@@minty_Joe Greatness. Also the scene were Red is released and talking about he's not going to make it on the outside alluding to, like Brooks, suicide. He peers in a pawn shop window at the guns while the compass is right next to them. Brilliant film shooting.

[@minty_Joe]

@@DinoNardelli The phrase, "Get busy living or get busy dying" has a double meaning. One, it means choosing between going back to prison versus suicide, and two, living a life on parole versus going to where Andy is now, where he is forgotten (hence dying in character).

[@deepred5461]

The scene with the empty cell, the empty tomb.

[@DSGodiva]

What a beautiful, insightful, engaging reaction! Thank you so much for this! And to answer your question from the beginning, "Fresh fish" were just when they got a new crew of inmates. Reeling them in was just kind of a way of saying "You're stuck here with us now." The bet was just on who of the new guys would cry first on their first night in the prison.

One of my favorite movies! There are all kinds of symbolism in it! IE: When Brooks leaves teh prison teh camera angle is outside looking in. (HE never left prison emotionally) When red leaves it is the opposite Camera from inside looking out. Notice what book of the Bible the pick axe cutout was in? Exodus. When Andy is talking to Red in the yard Red says "these are nothing but shitty pipe dreams" ... Good stuff!!!

Fun Fact: the Main guard (Hadley) also plays the voice of Mr. Krabs!

Sopranos Edith Mathis and Gundula Janowitz sing the Duettino-Sull'aria from The Marriage of Figaro. "Get Busy Living or Get Busy Dying" and then there's "Pinch a Loaf." :)

The script of this movie was so good that Tom Hanks and Tom Cruise both wanted in! However, Tom turned it down to film one of your faves- “Forrest Gump”. He ended up winning an Oscar for it. When a story is good, people gravitate towards it. This movie is literally top of my top five.

One of my favorite movies. I've seen it so many times and I still cry at the ending.

Me too! The reunion on the beach just gets me every time!
