This month we're going back to the old times, the real old times, the time when prison was the best thing that could happen to you but also the worst most evil thing that could happen to you and both of those things were true. A time of noble folks and silly men with slicked back hair trying to just work the line. We watched this TNT classic.

Learn more on the bonus episode post.

This is 100% a movie I have seen every scene of, but never in order, just from catching bits and pieces on cable over my whole childhood. Excited to sit down and watch it through!

It makes a lot of sense that It’s a Wonderful Life and Shawshank Redemption, two of the biggest success stories of movies going to TV, are both basically just a series of vignettes.

I went back and listened for it. The bonus episode on Stephen King's The Shining (1997) at 01:47:05 CMRN: "The producer of this film said—this is a quote from the thing—'We did this for the world but we also did this for Steve." And that's when the sign-off began.

I really disagree with the Brooks section of this episode. He's so god-damn old. What other decisions can he make? Rather than being depicted as a man who fails to make the right choice, i think Brooks is a classic portrayal of a senior parolee who society has failed

For sure, that's the "has it both ways" Darabont maneuver, but there's something really...difficult...about the way it pitches Red's ending formally against Brooks' ending, replicating all the same things and even the same room. There's a voluntarism or a "in the last instance, a choice is made" thing that happens there that has some uncomfortable judgement smuggled in! - CK

Pretty fair tbh, for what it's worth y'all have got me thinking about the movie in a new light much like you did with The Green Mile. I prefer Shawshank to the Green Mile now, but neither movie is perfect to say the least
