You may have seen Shaw many times, but do you know the story behind it?
1、 Ouch! Andy and Red's first conversation lasted 9 hours (the scene where Red was playing the ball); Morgan Freeman was very patient and played with the ball for 9 hours.
The next day Morgan Freeman came to the set with a sling on his arm.
2. Stephen Edwin King sold the film rights to Rita Hayworth and the "Shawshank Redemption" crew for a very cheap price, and he never cashed the check.
A few years after the film's release, Giang Kim mailed a check to Frank Dalabant, director of The Shawshank Redemption, with a note "in case of extortion." Love your Stephen. ”
3. Clint Eastwood, Harrison Ford, Paul Newman, and Robert Redford were all considered by the director as Red's candidates because Red was a "middle-aged Irishman." ”
Freeman's figure has always been haunted in Darabont's mind, because Freeman's appearance and demeanor are more in line with the role, especially his voice.
4、...... That's why Morgan Freeman says in the film that "... Maybe because I'm Irish..."
Alfonso Freeman also voiced a prisoner in the film with only one sentence, "Free fish!" Free fish! ”
5. The close-up of this hand is actually directed by Frank Darabont.
Like James Francis Cameron in Titanic, the director used his own hand to shoot close-up shots to bounce the revolver, and Andy's hand in the close-up shot of the wall carving his name was also directed. The reason why he used his own hand was because he felt that only he could deeply understand how to perform this scene well.
6 Tim Robbins initially refused to jump into the muddy water at the end of the drain.
A chemist tested the sewage and claimed it was toxic, but Robbins jumped anyway.
7. When Captain Hadley is arrested at the end of the film, the audience can see that the police read his Miranda rights in a newspaper.
That's because, as Red said, Andy escaped from prison in 1966, the time the U.S. Supreme Court ruled miranda v. Arizona, the beginning of miranda's right to be arrested.
8) The American Humanitarian Association is too strict, and in this scene where Brooks feeds crows, they even object to feeding crows with maggots.
They believed that this was cruel to maggots, and the shot could not continue until they discovered that the maggots were naturally dead before feeding them to the crows.
9) Tim Robbins had to keep his timeline in control well, "Hey Jack, where's Brooks?" "It's to prevent the crows from barking at him."
10 When the scene of the tools he used for excavation is finally found in Andy's Bible, it is clear that the page turned over is the book of Exodus.
The literal meaning of the word is "to escape or leave.")
Thanks for reading ❤️❤️❤️
