Just Watched "The Shawshank Redemption" for the First Time

Now I know you are all going to be amazed I haven't seen this movie before, and I know I'll get made fun of for it, but whatever, I finally watched it. And wow, did I love it. This is definitely the best movie I have seen in a long while. I didn't see anything that happens coming, and I feel like that is a rarity when I watch movies these days. I am literally tempted to just sit down and watch again...

So maybe these images will get you guys to want to watch it too!! I know they make me want to!

Most memorable quote for me:

"Dear fellas, I can't believe how fast things move on the outside. I saw an automobile once when I was a kid, but now they're everywhere. The world went and got itself in a big damn hurry. The parole board got me into this halfway house called "The Brewer" and a job bagging groceries at the Foodway. It's hard work and I try to keep up, but my hands hurt most of the time. I don't think the store manager likes me very much. Sometimes after work, I go to the park and feed the birds. I keep thinking Jake might just show up and say hello, but he never does. I hope wherever he is, he's doin' okay and makin' new friends. I have trouble sleepin' at night. I have bad dreams like I'm falling. I wake up scared. Sometimes it takes me a while to remember where I am. Maybe I should get me a gun and rob the Foodway so they'd send me home. I could shoot the manager while I was at it, sort of like a bonus. I guess I'm too old for that sort of nonsense any more. I don't like it here. I'm tired of being afraid all the time. I've decided not to stay. I doubt they'll kick up any fuss. Not for an old crook like me."
