  I love how when the warden opens the Bible where Andy was hiding the rock hammer, it opens to Exodus.  How fitting.

  Stephen King, can write it, but very few movie’s can bring it to life. This is one that does.

  My favorite moment of the movie is when Red finds the money Andy left him under the rock, and then frantically checks around him for anyone who might have seen.  The man is sitting in the middle of an empty field with only the sounds of birds and bugs, but prison will shape a man.

  Ive seen this movie so many times and this is the first time I ever noticed the Harmonica playing when Red went to the field.  Awesome!

  When Andy was building the library they gave him the architectural drawings for the prison. Big mistake!! 😂

  $370,000 in 1966 is worth about $3,594,892.59 today

  I love how Red went from "Hope is a dangerous thing" to "I hope to see my friend again and I hope to shake his hand."

  Red and Andy, two men who would never have met in life outside of prison. Different skin color, different education, place of residence and "class" in the sense of above and below". All that is so infinitely "important" to us humans. They meet each other and quickly become friends, as they recognize each other's true worth. By breaking out, Andy can create a safety net for Red. The new home is also there. As such, Brooks had no network, no friends outside of prison, simply no one and himself a nobody. As if made for relapse or suicide. Is that the point of being released from prison? An outstanding film with outstanding actors.

  I've watched this movie so many times, but your reaction made me see it with new eyes.  I love your laid-back but insightful reactions.  So many YouTube reactors think they need to be loud and make jokes all the time while watching.  I prefer videos like yours when you only talk when you have something worth saying.  Thank you.
