Movie Clips on the ending of The Shawshank Redemption

I chose the ending scene of the Shawshank redemption. It’s just like other classic ending scenes that told us the story of what happened after the movie and comes with a happy ending. We can hear the sound of the nature—pleasant sounds which implied Red’s feeling of walking free and anticipation to his new life. Then it comes with the content of the letter and some happy and warm music played. The light is bright and warm and the shots comes from the field to the place he lived and then the station, and the bus. When the shot comes to the place he lived, it focused on the words on the wall” Brooke is here So was Red” which reminds us the fate of Brooke who failed to adjust himself to the new life. And when Red is on his trip to freedom, the cam focused on him and he put his hand outside the window. Then the bus climbed in a hill. Every detail on that scene give us a feeling of being free and the pleasure of it. The whole clip has a warm color to fit in the theme. And the asides repeated the famous quote ”Get busy living or get busy dying”( which has a new different feeling and meaning from the first time it was said by Andy) and talked about hope. Then the scene moved above from blue of the water like it was hoped. We saw Andy was on that promised ship and they meet each other. The whole clip shared a very casual and delightful feeling which was created by the warm color, the brightness of the light, the casual music and the inspiring aside dialogue. The scene give us plenty of the possibilities to imagine Andy and Red’s happy future life as well as reminds us Brooke’s failure and one of the most important dialogue of the movie: ”Get busy living or get busy dying.”
