Great Movies

May 20, 2002

No matter how many times I see the movie, I never get tired of seeing the resolution of Shawshank Redemption. The whole sequence is put together well, and there's some pretty slick writing. Including one very subtle thing that it took me a few viewings to notice: When the warden finds the Bible in the safe instead of his ledger, he opens to the bookmarked page to see the hole Andy had cut out for the rock chisel. The Bible is open to the first page of Exodus.
