Clancy Brown IS a drill instructor type (he’s a Sergeant) in the movie Starship Troopers! 😊
"I guess it comes down to a simple choice, really. Get busy living, or get busy dying."
Fun Fact: Raquel Welch (RIP), whose One Million Years B.C. (1966) poster plays a significant role in the film, was a big fan of this movie.
Music Enthusiast Fact: The opera song that Andy Dufresne (Tim Robbins) plays over the loud speakers is "Canzonetta sull'aria" from "The Marriage of Figaro" by Mozart. It was Tim Robbins' idea for Andy to turn up the volume of the record player in the scene.
Bird Timing Fact: When Andy goes to the library to begin work as Brooks' (James Whitmore) assistant and Brooks' crow, Jake, is squawking, Tim Robbins had to time his line so that the crow wouldn't squawk over him, since the bird could not be trained to squawk on cue. Robbins was able to time his line perfectly by learning the bird's squawking patterns, for which writer/director Frank Darabont praised him.
The earliest movie example depicting escape rubble being covertly disposed of a little at a time down the inside of trouser legs, which I know, is in the 1960s WWII prisoner of war film, ‘The Great Escape’. Starring, Steve McQueen, James Garner and many others.
The white powder they throw on the new prisoners at the beginning is delousing powder (to get rid of lice) I'd guess it stings.
Did you notice Andy's quote from the Bible to the warden was about the warden coming to check on him?
Also the rock hammer cut out started in Exodus 😂
I never understood how they get money on prison either. Even in The Green Mile, “I’ll give you a nickel for that moon pie”. WHERE’D he get the nickel?! Was my first thought. lol
Two ways:
1) Family or friends could put money in an escrow account for inmate's use. Like to buy paper, pens, and stamps to send letters.
2) They could earn money for doing jobs, like laundry or whatever.
Of course, everything is electronic now.
Go in Peace and Walk with God. 😎 👍
@@BigGator5 I see, thanks for the info!
Being a banker ,I'm sure he had money in a bank.
In reality, Andy would have died in that pipe from the toxic fumes.
True. Every inch of the breakout is ridiculous, but it fits the story telling in an unobtrusive way and makes for a beautiful ending. Thematically, it’s his resurrection to the promised land where his disciple will be with him…
Not necessarily. It was a waste pipe that constantly drained, and had to have a vent pipe somewhere to draw air, not a septic system where a lot of gas could build up. Also, when he broke the pipe it would have helped vent the gases that were present.
oh for christsakes not another "Well, actually..." guy. Probably why you don't get invited to parties.
Please UFTS.
I love Shawshank and believe it is a masterpiece but....When did all this greatest movie of all time talk start?
who cares?
Dumping dirt through your pants was a thing way before Shawshank.
...please leave your bowel problems to yourself
I loved how the book of the bible the hammer was hidden in, was the book of EXODUS.
The pipe part at the end doesn't make sense, it's all wrong.
Cast iron can be broken.
There wouldn't be pressure on the sewage line though, unless it was clogged.
@@user-ul9vn6hn2g I know it can be broken but, how did a rock make a big enough hole for him to get into?
@chocolate-teapot
Because, it was in the script.
I hate that answer though.
@@user-ul9vn6hn2g haha yeah, nice one
@@user-ul9vn6hn2g haha true
The Great Escape is the film with tunneling and dropping drit out of pant sleeves that started it all. I'm glad you liked the film but if you didn't know that...man...you know very little about cinema.
