I love this movie! The only disappointing part was finding out at the end that it was fictional…don’t you wish that it had really happened?
“get busy livin’...or get busy dyin’...”
“I find I am so excited I can barely sit still or hold a thought in my head. I think it’s the excitement only a free man can feel, a free man at the start of a long journey whose conclusion is uncertain. I hope I can make it across the border. I hope to see my friend and shake his hand. I hope the Pacific is as blue as it has been in my dreams. I hope.”
I it one of the best movies i’ve ever seen. I saw it once and then i instantly bought it. It only cost 40 danish bucks (something like 8$). Seriously! I should add it to: The best thing you can buy for 8$.
One of the best of best. Tim Robbins acted brilliantly. Morgan Freeman is at his great as usual. The scene in the rain like in the movie poster is a movement in its own.
“I have no idea to this day what those two Italian ladies were singing about. Truth is, I don’t want to know. Some things are best left unsaid. I’d like to think they were singing about something so beautiful, it can’t be expressed in words, and makes your heart ache because of it. I tell you, those voices soared higher and farther than anybody in a gray place dares to dream. It was like some beautiful bird flapped into our drab little cage and made those walls dissolve away, and for the briefest of moments, every last man in Shawshank felt free.”
"I have to remind myself that some birds aren't meant to be caged; their feathers are just too bright. And when they fly away, the part of you that knows it is a sin to lock them up does rejoice. But still.. the place you live in is that much more drab and empty that they're gone.. I guess I just miss my friend."
Turns on the waterworks every time! This movie is a masterpiece and it never fails to lift my spirits and continues to be an inspiration. Love it! love it! love it!

BRILLIANT ! Beautifully written, superbly acted and it should be a Hollywood classic!

Andy Dufresne …who crawled through a river of shit…...and came out clean on the other side.
Best line…...
