The deep thoughts and life philosophy of sumsoonerchick

I’d like to think some that watched the movie had already read the Steven King short. Better than the movie, and I love that movie. Wasn’t it titled ‘Rita Hayworth’s Poster’ or something along those lines? Yes, I could have googled it, but I like to let my mind have exercise every once in awhile.
I think it was "Rita Hayworth and the Shawshank Redemption".

That's what they want you to believe, but he was as guilty as souce is being nooga.

He was a chess player. It was all a chess game.

The story was narrated, but not by him. By Red.

He gave valuable financial help to the guards. And got nothing in return?? Lol. Red even said "at first I thought he was trying to curry favor". Hint....hint... Of course he was.

The interactions perceive between the warden and Andy are based off what Andy tells Red and the others. Red was never around Andy and the Warden together, Red narrates what Andy tells him.

His ultimate work of art or move in his chess game was Tommy.. he spent months with Tommy "teaching" him and planting that whole story about his alibi in his head.

That's why that movie is in my top 5 of all time. Brilliant.
The book is better 😉

Red didn't tell Tommy all the details.

You need to watch it again now that you have all this knowledge, and then you'll see the truth.
The movie has a ton of ambiguity….

But Tommy already knew because Andy had been filling him up with it. Andy was escaping and promised Tommy to take him with him, but he had to make this story believable. I think Andy knew the Warden would get scared and Kill Tommy and then he wouldn't have to let him tag along.
I don’t recall any suck promise. He was helping get his GED. He was a short timer about to be released anyway.
