I once said the same thing about "The Shawshank Redemption".

Anyone remember the scene from Shawshank Redemption where they are tarring the prison roof? and the "Red" character (Morgan Freeman) has a voice over about how it was just like being any group of men working on one of their roofs and they finish with a beer?

I like him a lot.

He did a great job narrating The Shawshank Redemption.

Had a friend here in Texas who was a member of IATSE Local 729 (Motion Picture Set Painters & Sign Writers) whose biggest claim to fame was Andy Dufresne's cell in the Shawshank Redemption-She's gone now, but I'm wondering what she'd be doing now since digital technology has no-doubt changed the trade.

We loved you Kelley Collopy!!

The cop at 3:02 looks like Capt. Byron Hadley (Clancy Brown) from the Shawshank Redemption.

Enjoyed the fact it began and ended with Shawshank redemption, definitely one of my favorite movies.

Yes, it's by Thomas Newman. The guy who also did Shawshank Redemption and the Road To Perdition.

Reminds me of Shawshank Redemption when they read Brooks' letter after he got released from prison..."the world went and got itself in a big damn hurry". Until people realize that its not worth their or someone elses life to save a few seconds, or they just gotta send that text, accidents like these will continue to happen. I know not all of these are from carelessness or speeding, but thats the majority.

Yeah, I thought it was pretty ace. Good pacing, excellent casting so far... and when it came to the violence, I'm glad they kept it graphic yet didn't use it everywhere. A very well done first episode I thought.

Will be interesting to see how it involves as I think Frank Darabont (Shawshank Redemption director) has only directed this first/pilot episode.

It irritates the shit out of me when people have a clip of a window that gets covered in blood splatter.


Window(|) - head(o) - gun(=) diagram: | o = . In this diagram, the gun shoots the head and we end up seeing the splatter from the other side. Well, guess what, dickhead director? In order for the blood to come out the back side, pellets need to come out the back side. If the blood hits the window, why didn't the pellets? The only movie I can think of that did this was the Shawshank Redemption, when the warden offs himself and the window behind him shatters.

Take a note, filmmakers.

I understand her point but this *is* Hollywood we're talking about. Comfortable, conservative, racist, sexist Hollywood.

And choose better examples to make your point - Shawshank Redemption? Really?

Anyway just off the top of my head I thought of a few films that passed (or I assume they do as I haven't seen them all - correction, I've not seen Charlie's Angels but have seen the rest)

Charlie's Angels
Ghostworld
Kill Bill 1 & 2
Monster (the one about Aileen Wuornos)
Thelma and Louise

So in the context I've described maybe things aren't as bad as you might be led to believe. I'd also imagine that some of her other examples (think I saw Jolie there as Lara Croft) would be seen as models of empowerment despite lacking dialogue with another woman.

Wall-E is about a robot! Shawshank redemption ?!? Alien 3 definetely lacks a female protagonist....... the examples are just idiotic at times.

They could have wowed me with some non-action movies with actual female main protagonists in them, but in this case i still maintain that there´s a lot of fail in that compilation.

And passing the Bechdel Test does not constitute a feministic p.c. movie...
