THE SHAWSHANK REDEMPTION (1994) FIRST TIME WATCHING - MOVIE REACTION - REVIEW - FRANK DARABONT

Video Description

Welcome to our first time watching The Shawshank Redemption (1994) by Frank Darabont. First time watch for J. Two perspectives in one. J hasn't seen it before whereas D already has a strong connection with this film. We loved this. It maintains its status as one of the greatest films ever made in our opinion. A little observation we had in the editing: Red accuses Andy of his hope being just 'shitty pipe dreams'... and Andy was indeed dreaming of escaping through a shitty pipe! 00:00 - Welcome 00:23 - Solo intro (spoilers) 10:29 - Dual intro 13:05 - Reaction 1:00:44 - Discussion and review The Shawshank Redemption is a 1994 American drama film written and directed by Frank Darabont, based on the 1982 Stephen King novella Rita Hayworth and Shawshank Redemption. The film tells the story of banker Andy Dufresne (Tim Robbins), who is sentenced to life in Shawshank State Penitentiary for the murders of his wife and her lover, despite his claims of innocence. Over the following two decades, he befriends a fellow prisoner, contraband smuggler Ellis "Red" Redding (Morgan Freeman), and becomes instrumental in a money laundering operation led by the prison warden Samuel Norton (Bob Gunton). William Sadler, Clancy Brown, Gil Bellows, and James Whitmore appear in supporting roles. At the time of publishing, we are very sad to read about the passing of Rob Reiner, and his wife. Rob Reiner co-founded Castle Rock Entertainment.
