The Shawshank Redemption 20th Anniversary: Tim Robbins Goes To Cow Country

[@manidar1977]

So much respect for Frank. An amazing craftsman.

[@ummeshbapat]

How can this movie not win the oscar! Even against pulp fiction and Forrest gump. It still is a better movie than other two!!!

[@vatcheminassian2968]

Umesh Bapat totlly agree with the you my all time favorite picture

[@Ingens_Scherz]

I remember at the time around its original release it just had the worst marketing campaign so no one saw it. The slow burn, word-of-mouth build up was incredible but that was over the next two years so it kind of missed that Oscars momentum - which is a maximum 12-month cycle - that those other two movies had because they exploded on Day 1 of their release. For me, that's fine with Pulp Fiction, but Forrest Gump is possibly one of the most overrated, overhyped and irritating movies of all time! So yeah, that's annoying :)

@@Ingens_Scherz makes sense

[@ciao9149]

Even though I love Pulp Fiction, Shawshank still on top.

[@safsidhibaat]

Forrest gump overrated

[@UJJAWALCHANDRA09]

My favourite movie ever ..period..watch it any time any day..

[@tomada36]

One of my top 10 movies

[@wysiwyg2006]

forever a classic

The Walking Dead would be so much better now if they didn't get rid of Frank Darabont. The first season was so well put together

[@castielanne2544]

+GamesAndCodeVX Finally someone with the the same thought as I am. I completely agree with you on there. They shouldn't change the director. OMG the first season was so good. That season is the reason I watch the whole season of Walking Dead. Why they change him, so stupid. :(

#3 of my favorite movies. Love it and great interview. I love it when these reunions and anniversaries happen

[@richardxob]

this makes me smile :)

[@AthenaSaints]

I think the Academy will give lifetime achievement award to Morgan and Tim, just because of Shawshank Redemption.

[@MultiSamson1]

Great film.

[@jxod4296]

IMO, the scene where Red was panicking in the stall should have been added. That was only around 2 minutes. Frank should have cut a bit of that sequence where Red was looking for the tree. It felt longer than it should have.

[@theaj2564]

Tim Robbin aged. Still Morgan Freeman is the same 😂

[@carlmorrow1600]

Are you kidding? Morgan aged as well. He’s all gray haired

[@amalg.5723]

Dimple Tim still hot..

[@michellegonçalves7860]

He's always been hot😘🤤🔥!!!!

[@garymclaughin]

Really that scene was cows shit man what one has to do to make a movie. Awesome thanks ☺️👍

[@paunatale]

I seriously love Tim Robbins films and I just noticed now that he could easily make a Elton John's life film without much caracter work out =

[@zeigbert1743]

Couldn't wait 😂

[@australian8579]

How about a special directors cut Frank. Add some of the cut scenes in.

[@garymclaughin]

One wishes COVID was only a movie and hope the world doesn't go crazy as a result lockdowns and such.

[@graham6268]

Why is Morgan Freeman acting like such a prick? He should be happy and grateful that the movie has had such an impact after all these years.

[@DaveBaggs]

I get the feeling Morgan Freeman doesn't care for Tim Robbins too much, at least it appears there is something there that maybe we don't know about. It might be Morgan Freeman tolerated Tim while filming.

[@RustCohle072]

+PlainN SimpleMan Freeman said in an interview in 2000 that they're close friends. Though a lot can happen in that time i can't find any other mention of it past that point

[@johnlast4678]

Anybody have a lead on the full session? Really disappointing these clips are so short.

[@JohnBlundell-n3w]

46th anniversary of Scum still going strong in 🇬🇧 uk Pongo banks the Daddy 💪

"It wasn't really human's sh*t, but cows's s**t." Umm. That doesn't make it sound better or easier, Mr. Robbins 😷.

[@eddiescanduratrains]

He actually crawled through shit?

[@eddiescanduratrains]

Wanna hear a shitty story? If I telly you it, you'll most likely shit your pants.

[@macattack423]

First of all, I adore this movie. However... The cut scene is basically the only one that somewhat addresses race. In a movie that deals with prison in the US, where the incarceration rate for black men is astronomically high as a result of racism, it displays an ignorant privilege by avoiding the underlying racial issues. Shawshank is a fantastic film, yet issues of race are completely ignored. Whilst avoiding the topic of race allows the Andy-Red friendship to transcend the racial boundaries of the 40s-60s (when they were imprisoned) it completely whitewashes the prison industrial system.

[@andrewg3768]

well race is not mentioned in the book either so it doesn't matter as this film isn't about race

[@ikechiihemeson6023]

@@andrewg3768 I agree, but I’ll also say that Red wasn’t originally black in the book. I think casting Morgan Freeman may have been a nuanced, perhaps unintentional, detail in addressing the role incarceration plays in institutional racism, which is a sad reality, but a reality nonetheless

@@andrewg3768 if you’re talking about the “maybe it’s because I’m Irish” line, that was a joke cuz we all knew he clearly wasn’t in the movie
