Excellent editing by cutting all of these scenes. None advanced the story or what we already knew about the characters. The summer of love and panic attack scenes are gratuitous and the scene with the young guard going into the hole is beyond unnecessary. It's not hard to figure out how Andy got out without it. The story works much better within the confines of the minds of the characters and their own world. Kudos to the editors.
Been wanting to see this upload again for years. Thank you. The scene where Red has the panic attack really stuck with me. I thought it should have been left in the film.
Wow those were some great deleted scenes. I get how most scenes did not really progress the story. Its sad how when Red was having that panic attack the confinidness of the small bathroom stall brought him comfort. Like when Brooks was on the bus holding the bar on the seat.
Agreed. I don't make films at all but that scene was a real eye opener as to how a long term prisoner would struggle with outside life. I would like to have seen it left in but...oh well.
This is so insanely relatable from my past experiences. After doing 3 years in a juvenile prison, I was released and the first few days were so surreal to me. I repeatedly asked my father permission to use the bathroom and it was very hard to break that habit. In addition, it took me months to break the habit of wearing my flipflops in the shower like it was just completely impossible for me to take 1 step into the shower without wearing them.
They explain it at 9:30. And I have to agree, as great as it is, it wouldn't have been fitting for that point in the film. That said, I'm glad they filmed it, and I like to think it's canon to the film but just happened off-screen.
@@Minotaur1975 100%. None of these deleted scenes would have added to the film and I think the panic attack is just gratuitous nonsense that we have seen before. I think it is beyond Red's character.
Thirtieth Anniversary is coming up soon for this movie. It'd be nice if they came out with a special edition Blu Ray of this movie that showed both a theatre release and the movie with all the outtakes grafted in. I'd pay buku bucks to watch that.
@@NKdidit yup. 1994-2004 10 years. 2004-2014 20 years. 2014-2024 30 years. September 1st 1994 the Shawshank Redemption hit theaters. I saw it opening night. Hard to believe that much time went by but my math was right.
@@NKdidit The movie came out Sept 1 1994. 2004-2014-2024. 30 years old next year. Still enough time to press out a nice 30 anniversary box set if they wanted to.
As interesting as these scenes are... ultimately I'm with Frank Darabont on this one. We see exactly as much of Red's life outside as we need to, and the escape scene is absolutely perfect.
I have this exact same video saved on a VHS.... this came on after the credits finished to the movie before the next movie started..... it was on channel 14 showtime lol. all of these scenes need to be added into the movie
I don't know. It's up there, but I'd choose another short story he wrote, The Long Walk I've never been so viscerally affected by a story as I was with The Long Walk.
A couple different parts of all 3 scenes delated they should have left a couple of them. Seeing Red in the public with all the hippies and checking out the chicks and Red and the rest in the jail cell laughing their ass off when they sent a guard into the tunnel would have been a couple awesome additions.
I can tell that the environment in The Shawshank Redemption really is an uncaring place, not just from the prison, but in public places in the city, and the world treats you as an outcast right immediately as they see you, as if someone is always out to get you, and you're getting tired of being treated unfairly. Take a look at where it brought Brooks, because if his life conditions were more fair with everyone being kinder to him, then he would've continued his life, and Red is almost experiencing the same thing, to the extreme that he cannot handle rejection and fear. The mean world that Red faces in this scene, where he's pushed around, disregarded, and disrespected, is unfortunately the true reality of what I go through also, and I'm sure that many people know the feelings of it, and so do I. There are so many angry people in the world that hate us for so many reasons, whether it's discrimination, stigmas, overreaction, carelessness, and misunderstandings. Rejection is not fair, and life puts us through it whether we like it or not, and even when people recognize what's happening to you, they don't care. Instead of people putting us down for everything that's wrong to them about us, they should try to make our lives happy, then we could get along.
I always wondered how Andy would have managed to fit into the world if he had gotten out legally rather than having to escape. Obviously he wouldn't have had quite as difficult an adjustment to make on the outside like Red and Brooks....Red had been imprisoned for 40 years, Brooks nearly 50, Andy for 19 years. Still, things change from decade to decade. Clothes, cars, businesses. I wonder how Andy liked driving a more advance automobile that had a lot of features that 40's cars didn't have during that era. Plus from what we see in the film Andy had no one on the outside who stood by him during his trial and imprisonment, no friends, no family, just about everyone wrote him off as that 'icy, remorseless' banker who murdered his wife and lover in cold blood. I know in the short story he had one friend before and after he was convicted who helped him set up a false identity, but in the movie he did that all on his own. Ex-convicts do face a lot of hostility and uphill battles once they're released (even those who have been proven innocent). Brooks had no one on the outside to look out for him, and that's what makes his decision to commit suicide ultimately tragic.....no one in the free world liked him, cared for him, gave a damn what happened to him. All of his friends were back in prison, where the majority of his life had been spent. He had gotten too used to a life behind bars for so long, that freedom was actually a worst prison for him than Shawshank ever was. Red faced the same challenges, but he at least had something to hope for....the hope of seeing Andy again. And he did that by keeping the promise he made to him to go look for and find Andy's little present for him.
What prison was it filmed at one shot the outside looked like rahway state back in 1972 later called east state. Back in 1972 I had a day off had my bike ride to coney island nyc stopped at a park a large ape gray hair and the eye to eye contact threw the bars made me cry.

After all these years, the movie has such a cult and mainstream following that these deleted scens would have bee great to keep in the movie. It added quite a bit more depth to the characters and story.
What depth to the characters do these scenes add? Not add a thing. In fact, I think they take away from what we already know. Excellent job editing in my view.
@@kevinthomas180 these are not included in the final cut as the director says. You'll have to edit it together and watch, but it wouldn't look good because you wouldn't be able to find HD version of this particular deleted scenes.
I always turn away or change channels each time they show the warden blowing his head off with a 38 near the end. I went to school with someone that looked like the leader of the "Sisters", Bogs Diamond. In middle school and high school he acted the same way. He picked on many kids. He never bothered me though. He usually went out of his way to be friendly with me. Probably didn't want me to kick his @$$.
It's stupid to call it Rita Hayworth, she was just one pin up girl through the years. Why not call it Raquel Welch and Shawshank redemption. or Bo Derek and Shawshank. Rita Hayworth was just one pin up, the name is perfect like it is now.
Because the original short story it's based on, by Stephen King, is called Rita Hayworth and the Shawshank Redemption. They even mentioned it in the video.
I like the laughing scene...it's Andy's last gift to his friends. They'd be talking and laughing about it for years.
They already had more than enough of those already...🤣
I heard about that deleted scene with Red laughing about the guard and always wondered how it looked. Appreciate the upload!
Seeing Red have a panic attack is tough.
They had to cut it. But I LOVE Red’s deleted scene. Preach
That was a master craft on editing, the thinking and justification for each scene. Great stuff! To me they were wise cuts!

Wow, they cut the scene with Morgan Freeman and season of the witch by Donovan playing in the background. Now that is a true crime!
Best movie ever. I’ve never seen these thank you

been looking for this!!
Me too
I on the other hand was not looking for this...
I really wish this had been included as an extra in the home video releases
why on earth didn't they leave the "oh my god it's shit" scene in :-) pure comical perfection...
They explain it at 9:30. And I have to agree, as great as it is, it wouldn't have been fitting for that point in the film. That said, I'm glad they filmed it, and I like to think it's canon to the film but just happened off-screen.
We already know how Andy got out, so no point repeating it. If it was left in, we'd have had to lose the scene with Andy doing it.
@@Minotaur1975 100%. None of these deleted scenes would have added to the film and I think the panic attack is just gratuitous nonsense that we have seen before. I think it is beyond Red's character.
The scene worked just fine in King's story, but I think it would have felt out of place in the film.
love the way Mr.Morgan's laugh.......
1:06 Can I just say that VHS was not the terrible medium that this moment makes it out to be. It only looks this bad when the medium was used poorly

Truly Stephen King's greatest story ever.
I don't know. It's up there, but I'd choose another short story he wrote, The Long Walk
I've never been so viscerally affected by a story as I was with The Long Walk.
That bathroom scene is powerful... too much space would have been scary for this amount of years inside
Donovan as soundtrack, wow!

Where was the cut scene with Mark Rolston & Clancy Brown
Ellis Boyd Red Redding/Morgan Freeman in his on cell & got sent to the hole 😂 that was the best part of scene
5:39 morgan says "it SHOULD have been in the movie!!!
Morgan’s laughing scene should have been left in without any reason. Just the scene well positioned after the escape at the end would have been gold.
Tim was a real sicko in Arlington Road....Boom!
Great movie, and you're right Tim's character in that one was evil personified.
2:14 i remember the narration from red.... "and not a brassier in sight!!"
The ending of the novella is much, much darker.
