  • A letter for Red – Andy Dufresne: Remember Red, hope is a good thing, maybe the best of things, and no good thing ever dies.
  • In another scene, talking to Red – Andy Dufresne: She was beautiful. God I loved her. I just didn’t know how to show it, that’s all. I killed her, Red. I didn’t pull the trigger, but I drove her away. And
    that’s why she died, because of me.

Shawshank Redemption is the touching story of Andy Dufresne, a New England banker wrongfully accused of killing his wife and his wife’s lover. He was incarcerated. It was in prison that he became friends with an unlikely fellow named Red. Being an introvert did not win him so many friends. But the best in him came out through time and he used his intelligence in encouraging other people to HOPE as this was the only means of survival in this wild world.
