She said she was glad I knew,that she hated all the sneaking around. She said she wanted adivorce in Reno.D.A.: What was your response?ANDY:I told her I woul

2、d not grant one.D.A.:"I'll see you in Hell before I see you in Reno." Those were the words you used, Mr. Dufresne, according to the testimony of your neighbors.ANDY: If they say so. I really don't remember. I was upset.D.A.: What happened after you and your wife argued?ANDY: She pa

3、cked a bag and went to stay with Mr. Quentin.D.A.: Glenn Quentin. The golf pro at the Falmouth Hills Country Club. The man you had recently discovered was her lover.(Andy nods) Did you follow her?ANDY:I went to a few bars first. Later, I decided to drive to Mr. Quentin's home and confront them.

4、They weren't there.so I parked my car in the turnout.and waited.D.A.: With what intention?ANDY: I'm not sure. I was confused. Drunk. I think mostly I wanted to scare them.D.A.: Y ou had a gun with you?ANDY: Yes. I did.D.A.: When they arrived, you went up to the house and murdered them?ANDY:

5、No. I was sobering up. I realized she wasn't worth it. I decided to let her have her quickie divorce.D.A.: Quickie divorce indeed. A .38 caliber divorce, wrapped in a hand towel to muffle the shots, isn't that what you mean?And then you shot her lover!ANDY:I did not. I got back in the car an

6、d drove home to sleep it off. Along the way , I stopped and threw my gun into the Royal River. I feel I've been very clear on this point.D.A.: Y es, you have. Where I get hazy , though, is the part where the cleaning woman shows up the next morning and finds your wife and her lover in bed, riddl

7、ed with .38 caliber bullets. Does that strike you as a fantastic coincidence, Mr. Dufresne, or is it just me?ANDY:(softly)Y es. It does.D.A.: I'm sorry , Mr. Dufresne, I don't think the jury heard that.ANDY: Yes. It does.D.A.: Does what?ANDY : Strike me as a fantastic coincidence.D.A.: On th

8、at, sir, we are in accord.D.A.: Y ou claim you threw your gun into the Royal River before the murders took place. That's rather convenient.ANDY : It's the truth.D.A.: Y ou recall Lt. Mincher's testimony? He and his men dragged that river for three days and nary a gun was found. So no com

9、parison can be made between your gun and the bullets taken from the bloodstained corpses of the victims. That's also rather convenient, isn't it, Mr. Dufresne?ANDY :(faint, bitter smile)Since I am innocent of this crime, sir, I find it decidedly inconvenient the gun was never found.D.A.: Lad

10、ies and gentlemen, you've heard all the evidence, you know all the facts. We have the accused at the scene of the crime. We have foot prints. Tire tracks. Bullets scattered on the ground which bear his fingerprints. A broken bourbon bottle, likewise with fingerprints. Most of all, we have a beau

11、tiful young woman and her lover lying dead in each other's arms. They had sinned. But was their crime so great as to merit a death sentence?D.A.:I suspect Mr. Dufresne' s answer to that would be yes. I further suspect he carried out that sentence on the night of September 21st, this year of

12、our Lord, 1946, by pumping four bullets into hiswife and another four into Glenn Quentin. Andwhile you think about that, think about this.A revolver holds six bullets, not eight. I submit to you this was not a hot-bloodedcrime of passion! That could at least be understood, if not condoned. No, this

13、was revenge of a much more brutal and cold-blooded nature. Consider! Four bullets per victim! Not six shots fired, but eight! That means he fired the gun empty.andthen stopped to reload so he could shoot each of them again! An extra bullet per lover.right in the head. I'm done talking. Youpeople

14、 are all decent, God-fearing Christian folk. Y ou know what to do.JUDGE: Y ou strike me as a particularly icy and remorseless man, Mr. Dufresne. It chills my blood just to look at you. By the power vested in me by the State of Maine, I hereby order you to serve two life sentences, back to back, one

15、for each of your victims. So be it.MAN #1: Sit.MAN #2: we see by your file you've served twenty years of a life sentence.MAN #3: you feel you've been rehabilitated?RED: yes, sir. Absolutely . I've learned my lesson. I can honestly say I'm a changed man. I'm no longer a danger to

16、societyThat's the God's honest truth. No doubt about it.RED (V .O.):There's a con like me in every prison in America, I guess. I'm the guy who can get it for you. Cigarettes, a bag of reefer if you're partial, a bottle of brandy to celebrate your kid' s high school graduation

17、. Damn near anything, within reason.RED (V .O.) :yes sir, I'm a regular Sears &Roebuck.RED (V .O.): So when Andy Dufresne came to me in 1949 and asked me to smuggle Rita Hayworth into the prison for him, I told him no problem. And it wasn't.RED (V.O.):Andy came to Shawshank Prison in ear

18、ly 1947 for murdering his wife and the fella she was bangin'. On the outside, he'd been vice-president of a large Portland bank. Good work for a man as young as he was, when you consider how conservative banks were back then.CON: Fresh fish! Fresh fish today!TOWER GUARD: All clear!HADLEYOn y

22、think much of Andy first time I laid eyes on him. He might'a been important on the outside, but in here he was just a little turd in prison grays. Looked like a stiff breeze could blow him over. That was my first impressionof the man.SKEET: What say , Red?RED: Little fella on the end. Definitely

Seconds later, the water is cut and the con yanked out.HADLEYDelouse that piece of shit! Next man in! The con gets a huge scoop of white delousing powder thrown all over him. Gasping and

28、 coughing, blinking powder from his eyes, he gets shoved to a trustee's cage. The TRUSTEE slides a short stack of items through the slot - prison clothes and a Bible. All the men are processed quickly - a blast of water, powder, clothes and a Bible.15 INT - INFIRMARY - NIGHT (1947) 15A naked CON

48、at is it and why?ANDY : You make your customers' motives a part of your business?RED : If you wanted a toothbrush, I wouldn't ask questions. I'd just quote a price. Atoothbrush, see, is a non-lethal sort ofobject.ANDY : Fair enough. A rock-hammer is about eight or nine inches long. Looks

49、 like a miniature pickaxe, with a small sharp pick on one end, and a blunt hammerhead on the other. It's for rocks.RED : Rocks.RED : Quartz?ANDY : Quartz, sure. And look. Mica. Shale. Silted granite. There' s some graded limestone, from when they cut this place out of the hill.RED : So?ANDY

52、 head if I were you.ANDY: Thanks for the advice.RED: That comes free. But you understand my concern.ANDY: If there's trouble, I doubt a rock-hammer will do me any good.RED: Then I guess you wanna escape. Tunnel under the wall maybe?(Andy laughs politely)I miss the joke. What's so funny?ANDY:

53、 You'll know when you see the rock-hammer.RED: What's this item usually go for?ANDY : Seven dollars in any rock and gem shop.RED: My standard mark-up' s twenty percent, but we're talking about a special object. Risk goes up, price goes up. Call it ten bucks even.ANDY: Ten it is.RED:

54、I'll see what I can do.(rises, slapping dust)But it's a waste of money .ANDY : Oh?RED: Folks who run this place love surprise inspections. Theyturn a blind eye to some things, but not a gadget like that.They'll find it, and you'll lose it. Mention my name, we'll never do business

55、 again. Not for a pair of shoelaces or a stick of gum.ANDY:I understand. Thank you, Mr.?RED: Red. The name' s Red.ANDY: Red. I'm Andy . Pleasure doing business with you.RED (V .O.):I could see why some of the boys took him for snobby . He had a quiet way about him, a walk and a talk that jus

56、t wasn't normal around here. He strolled. like a man in a park without a care or worry. Like he had on an invisible coat thatwould shield him from this place.(resumes playing catch)Y es, I think it would be fair to say I liked Andy from the start.RED (V .O.):He was a man who adapted fast.BOB:DUF

57、RESNE! WE'RE LOW ON HEXLITE!HEAD ON BACK AND FETCH US UP SOME!ANDY: You get this in your eyes, it blinds you.BOGS: Honey, hush.BOGS: That's it, fight. Better that way .RED (V .O.):I wish I could tell you that Andy fought the good fight, and the Sisters let him be. I wish I could tell you tha

58、t, but prison is no fairy-tale world.RED (V .O.):He never said who did it.but we all knew.RED (V .O.):Things went on like that for a while. Prison life consists of routine, and then more routine.RED (V .O.):Every so often, Andy would show up with fresh bruises.RED (V .O.):The Sisters kept at him. So

59、metimes he was able to fight them off.sometimes not.RED (V .O.):And that's how it went for Andy. That was his routine. I do believe those first two years were the worst for him. And I also believe if things had gone on that way , this place would have got the best of him.But then, in the spring

60、of 1949,the powers-that-be decided that.NORTON:.the roof of the license-plate factory needs resurfacing. I need a dozen volunteers for a week's work.We're gonna be taking names in this steel bucket here.RED (V .O.):It was outdoor detail, and May is one damn fine month to be workin' ou tdoors.RED (V .O.):More than a hundred men volunteered for the job.RED (V .O.):Wouldn't you know it?
