king here is trying to show what a tragedy locking people up is. that they waste their lives and end up aimless and out of place afterwrds
but he's really showing what normal life is without something to belong to, like a family or a church
all the old guy had to do was go to church and he would have a community to belong to
but leave it up to israelite homosexual stephen king to leave that part out
No. His whole life is gone. In prison he did not notice the flow of time and just lived as he was told and as everyone around him lived. He knew how to live. When he was released, he didn't know how to live. He was already dead. Plus he must have already developed senile dementia.
>saw a car once when he was a kid >now they're everywhere
homie, you watched buses and trucks drive into Shawshank regularly.
Like, homie, you riding on one in OP pic.
That wasn't even the point, its that he was having a better time in prison than outside because outside he is a nobody and has no friends, inside he was talked to and looked up to by many of the younger inmates
Damn, what's the point of living in old age anyway and worse yet continue working, you're literally like a fricking baby again. Honestly, I don't want to spend more than 27 years, suicide is the best option.
Why should I feel sorry for this sack of shit again? Because sad music played and he killed himself? What did he do to get put into jail for decades, tell me that before you try to make me feel bad for him.

They somehow made homosexual gang rape into something you could watch with your family; in the 90s which is even more of a feat than it is today, so I guess we have to give them credit. >"I wish I could tell you Ol' Andy fought the good fight..." >...and wasn't brutally gang-raped on multiple occasions over the course of several years. >nevermind that now, they got their comeuppance in the end >and Andy helped that career criminal (who was also a wild at heart rascal, we liked him immediately) get a degree >it sure was tragic when the guards took advantage of his boyish naivety in order to murder him >but it all works out so don't you worry a lick

Let them seethe, I still liked the movie. It's just that the sentimentality is laid on so ridiculously thick that it becomes comically absurd when you pay attention to it. Like I said, they made repeated homosexual gang rape in a prison something you can watch with your grandparents--that's an accomplishment.

as someone who feels that the shawshank redemption is a blatant ripoff of a much better film (cool hand luke) it's refreshing and interesting to hear such dumb, dumb, dummy dumb criticisms of shawshank

it sent andy (a character we know to be incredibly resilient, stoic and carefree) into a major depression where he began to look and talk very differently. he began to say things that sounded suicidal and his friends were reasonably concerned that he was about to kill himself

Calm down, sperg. My criticism is it becomes comically sentimental if you think outside of the logic the film dictates to the audience (voice over is the most overtly obvious example of it). However, it handles things so incredibly well that a decades spanning homosexual serial gang rape becomes muted into the background. I don't need you to explain plot points you moronic homosexual--the movie does it well enough.
how hard is it to just not rob, loot, or kill someone?

god I wish that were me, except not chinese
>NOOO HELGA PREEEASE!
what do german women smell like bros?
>all the old guy had to do
was not do something that would put him in jail that long to begin with
this only applies to the old days
we got tv and internet now, being locked up for life is like being on vacation forever.
>ackshually the shtowy should have a happy ending because... IT JUST SHOULD, OKAY???
embarassing homosexual. are all christcucks this moronic?
He did the correct thing in sacrificing himself to Thor. Unfortunately he forgot to sacrifice a dog or calf beforehand
>j-just go to church
are you serious
Yes? It's literally the only place that will tolerate his kind so he can rehab into society.
>church
Yes everyone should send their kids to get molested by priests as a sense of purpose
Enough about public school. Also we're talking about an old man.
We aren't talking about synagogues or mosques anon.
>church
Gay
Black folk stupid
Sometimes death is the only option. It's okay.
>wait I DON'T have to ask to take a shit during work? THAT'S IT I'M HANGING MYSELF
>AAAAAAAAAAAAAAH THE CUSTOMER IS TELLING ME TO USE NOT ONE BUT TWO BAGS IM GOING INSANE AAAAAAAAAAAAAAH HELP ME CORRUPT PRISON WARDEN
No. His whole life is gone. In prison he did not notice the flow of time and just lived as he was told and as everyone around him lived. He knew how to live. When he was released, he didn't know how to live. He was already dead. Plus he must have already developed senile dementia.

That wasn't even the point, its that he was having a better time in prison than outside because outside he is a nobody and has no friends, inside he was talked to and looked up to by many of the younger inmates
andy was the villain for making red break the law after red was free and clear

he was innocent lawyer fricked him
I honestly believe that the death penalty is more humane than life in prison, even if it turns out the guy was wrongly convicted.
Notice how as soon as he started wageslaving he killed himself

He's right though and your kneejerk emotional reaction proves that you felt called out.
Let them seethe, I still liked the movie. It's just that the sentimentality is laid on so ridiculously thick that it becomes comically absurd when you pay attention to it. Like I said, they made repeated homosexual gang rape in a prison something you can watch with your grandparents--that's an accomplishment.
