That movie was life-changing. Literally. Growing up in one of the worst neighborhoods in the country, I remember thinking that if this guy can escape the hell he escaped, I can survive the hell I was living in. Thank you, Tim and Morgan.
I Know exactly what you mean. i was a college freshman in Univ Dayton in 1976-77 in a similar situation. I was scared crapless of stepping out into the world. March 1977 Fleetwood Mac put out 'Don't Stop'. I felt that they had written it to me. Over time I thought it was silly for to get so inspired by a silly song, but it got me through. Later I think Clinton, Bill used it and later other political events used it, so I was like, "I guess I'm not the only one who gets it."
Yeah hard to go back when you've seen it dozens of times and will see it dozens more before I die I'm sure. The shorty story by Stephen King from the book "Different Seasons" is good as well - Rita Hayworth and the Shawshank Redemption. I read it long before they made a movie. I've always said since the movie came out that it works so well as a movie because it was only a short story. The script writers didn't need to leave out major portions of the story because it wouldn't fit in a movie time frame.
@@rogerhickson7256 I've seen it more times than I care to remember, but I'm content with just watching the last hour, from when Andy comes out of solitary and talks to Red in the exercise yard. From then on, the acting is probably the best I've ever seen on screen. How this movie didn't win multiple Oscars, I don't know (well I do, it's all fixed). I haven't read the short story, but I will do one day. The other movie I'd like to see again for the first time is Local Hero. A quirky British movie with American/British cast. Absolute magic.
This movie belongs right up there in the national film registry. The library of Congress selected it in 2015. Its hard to believe this guy's never seen it. The film is a cinematic masterpiece. Anyone who hasn't seen it, really ought to. It's just that good.
He is like me, I guess. I used to hear Shawshank for years and years, and never watched or seen it until I saw a downloaded copy of it on wife's laptop in 2015.
“We need the people who possess the power to change things to look to themselves and decide for themselves what is moral and what is not, And to risk- at times; their livelihood, their income to do what is right for this country” Amen
I feel that those who have testified and are testifying, that have been in their positions for multiple presidencies, are doing just that...bringing forth their knowledge of what they saw/heard, risking their livelihood to ensure the American public can know something wasn't right.
Amazing words to live by. We don't all have to agree..but we have to stand up for what is right. What we are doing to this planet. What we are doing to each other cannot be ignored anymore. I hope that people change. I pray that people change. Thank you for posting this.
We need people TO KNOW THEY possess the power to change things...... This is a better quote. I don’t need a powerful person to look to themselves and decide what is moral and what is not. I need people to creat the change instead of depending on the hope that a powerful person will give us some slack. I don’t trust in most powerful people they have no vested interest in changing. Things are just too good for them. We need to have the solidarity and critical action to make change. We can do it.
princessc1986 - Or as another contributor said, we can't wait for those in power to change. Why should they? The present situation suits them; they are all doing well. We the people should be the agents of change. Note, do you think the founders intended it to be this way: no matter how much you desire to bring about change, once you get elected to public office you are part of what you were against before. So no real change can come about. Gads. Scary, isn't it?
They should stream that and just have a world wide viewing party. Everybody press play at home at the same time, and we can all watch Shawshank with Steven, Morgan and Tim.
I find it strange that so many "Top movies of all times" rank Shawshank in top 10, and that so many celebrities haven't seen it. I agree with you, Gaz, goat for sure.
🤔 I'm sorry... who is this Tim Robbins??? All I see is one of my heroes Andy Dufresne, still being awesome after crawling through shit smelling foulness. He is my hero because crawling through shit smelling foulness, in order to experience a life of freedom and happiness, is like a rite of passage for almost all black people.
i love how Stephen thanks Tim for bringing the quiz. there's a certain leadership in fallibility and Stephen isn't afraid to say a joke only he thinks is funny or do what he thinks is right - much like the quality Tim mentioned about what America needs. Stephen will be here long after the internet troll is out of office and I think he's the greatest host in late night regardless of the endless supply of material he gets every day
My Dogs Best Fren: What a wonderful person you are to that lucky dog‼️🥰👍 And l completely agree with everything you stated in your comment. Thank you so very much! ♥️🙏♥️
Shawshank Redemption moved me when I was a teen and influenced the compassion I have for people in prison, and more generally, people trying to be better even while stuck in dreadful situations. One of my favorite stories.
Oh that's right. He wrote the short story the movie was based on. Hard to remember to associate SK with that movie. This time the great cast would be in the audience!
The Shawshank Redemption is by far my personal GOAT movie. So many memorable lines that never leave my soul. Tim & Morgan act beautifully together in it, as well as the 5-star supportive cast. Stephen, Stephen, Stephen, yes I'm a fan of LOtR as well, but do yourself a favor, & watch the dang thing! "Some birds aren't meant to be caged, their feathers are just too bright."
Shawshank is one of the best adaptations of Stephen King's work. They took his short story and turned it into an all time classic movie. Tim Robbins and Morgan Freeman's roles were so iconic that 25 years later you can still recite lines from memory. "Get busy living, or get busy dying."
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. P.S: Tell Heywood I'm sorry I put a knife to his throat. No hard feelings. Brooks.
bob loblaw Me too! At the grocery store last week I told them “Make sure your man double bags. Last time he didn’t double bag, and the bottom near came out.” They looked at me like I was a daft old idiot.
One of the top scenes in Shawshank ... was the final Parole Board scene ... now a mature "Red" deadly serious ... brings tears to my eyes every time !!
"I guess it comes down to a simple choice really. Get busy living, or get busy dying." THE iconic line from Shawshank Redemption, only the greatest movie ever made.
I have watched Shawshank Redemption so many times I can’t even count! One of my all time favourite movies along with Mystic River. Tim Robbin’s is definitely an amazing actor!
OMG, how I would love to take part in this screening. I would be very quiet an just enjoying the presence of this great actors - and Stephen Colbert of course... 😁
I cant stop thinking that Tim Robbins is somehow overlooked, underrated - just like Jeff Daniels. Grew up watching Shawshank and Dumb and Dumber and always thought their acting was terrific. Jeff in The Newsroom is magnificent.
Funny how Shawshank didn't do well in theaters but when it came out on video it did extremely well and is known by so many as one of the greatest movies of all time.
and the stupefying thing about that is that so many republicans & trump followers still believe that stephen colbert is one of them but he is just "undercover" as a liberal.
I will never forget that I was in Leicester Square in London and I was going to go and watch some action flick and it was sold out at Empire cinemas but it was sold out. I turn around and just 50 meters away there is a giant poster of a guy with his arms out in the rain. Shawshank Redemption. Didn't interest me at all but it was either that or go home. So I bought my ticket, my popcorn and sat down for one of the most wonderful moments of my life. That movie is my go to whenever I am down. Greatest movie I have ever seen.
The Shawshank Redemption is definitely a movie that you watch at the very least once a year. And whenever you find a friend or relative who has not seen it. You definitely make arrangements for them to watch it as soon as possible. Even if your annual watch was just a few days ago.
The Shawshank Redemption losing to Forrest Gump for "best 'picture" was (still is), absolutely stupefying. Not to mention that Tom Hanks won for best actor. Absolutely crazy.
I saw it and suddenly remembered that this year is the 25th anniversary of The Shawshank Redemption! Goodness me! 25 years of Andy and Red! And of HOPE! This movie is and always will be the closest one to my heart!
I saw Shawshank at least 10 times in 2 weeks in the empty cinemas when it was released in the UK in February 1995... I knew it was an absolute masterpiece and at the time my life had fallen apart... I honestly think it helped save my life.
I don't know what the best part of the interview is: the video with young/old Colbert playing with the audience or the shawshank quiz. I love Tim Robbins. Totally underrated. Wish I could see him more often. Also, HOW COME STEPHEN COLBERT HAS NEVER SEEN ONE OF THE GREATEST MOVIES EVER MADE???
Shawshank is one of the greatest movies of all time.

Come on Stephen, it's like the best movie of all time.
Agree!
It's amazing but that's the Godfather
Good in Shawshank. Chillingly good in Arlington Road
I really loved his character in Arlington Road. An amazing movie..
OMGOSH!!! I reaction video of Tim, Morgan, and Stephen watching Shawshank would be the best thing ever. MAKE THIS HAPPEN!!!
Age gets the best of us. He’s aging gracefully. I’ll always picture him in his fantastic rolls in the 80’s through 90’s.
Shawshank Redemption is my favourite film, ever
Tim Robbins is a legend 🔥🔥💯
Shawshank Redemption is my all time favourite movie ❤️
Big Shawshank fan but, Dark Waters is also fantastic. Well worth a watch.
I never realized how huge Tim Robbins is.
You never noticed that he is bigger than all of his costars?
@@mickeye6428 I always noted the tall .. its the mass that stands out now . he looks great .
@@kasnitch Watch "The Brink," he looks like a giant next to jack black.
Go back and watch Top Gun. He plays Merlin and there's a shot of him at the end on the carrier deck and he's literally towering over everyone.
I can't believe he said he hasn't seen Shawshank Redemption and Tim's face priceless...hahahahaha!!!
Y’all when I saw the thumbnail I thought the late show had Julian Hssange and I almost lost my shit
Huh, the resemblance is uncanny. Is Tim Robbins doing a Julian Assange movie? Inquiring minds would like to know.
I don't know if the resemblance is that striking... It's just the hair and the beard. In the movie clip, he looked nothing like Assange
I just love Tim Robbins. Everyone needs to see Shawshank Redemption and I hope we get the commentary on those 3 watching together! Sounds amazing.
Hi Julie 👋 how are you doing?
Probably will never happen.
I've loved him since Bull Durham. Great Actor.
I don't know what the best part of the interview is: the video with young/old Colbert playing with the audience or the shawshank quiz.
I love Tim Robbins. Totally underrated. Wish I could see him more often.
Also, HOW COME STEPHEN COLBERT HAS NEVER SEEN ONE OF THE GREATEST MOVIES EVER MADE???
Best Tim Robbins quote: "You know. For kids!"
Bryson Clan 🔥🤣🔥I was dying to quote Hudsucker!!!!!!
Well played Sir!!!!
Also.... Fact....
