A scene from The Shawshank Redemption 1994

Red

Why'd you do it?

Andy

I didn't, since you ask.

Red

[chuckling]

You're gonna fit right in. Everybody in (here) is innocent. Didn't you know that? (to Heywood) Hey Heywood, what you in for?

Heywood

Didn't do it. Lawyer **** me.

Red

Rumor has it you're a real cold fish. You think your shit smells sweeter than most. Is that right?

Andy

What do you think?

Red I don't think you ought to be doing this to yourself, Andy. This is just shitty pipedreams. I mean, Mexico is way the hell down there and you're in here, and that's the way it is. Andy Yeah, right. That's the way it is. It's down there and I'm in here. I guess it comes down to a simple choice, really. Get busy livin' or get busy dyin'. Andy Dufresne No. I was sobering up. I got back in the car and I drove home to sleep it off. Along the way, I threw my gun into the Royal River. I've been very clear on this point. Andy Dufresne Since I am innocent of this crime, sir, I find it decidedly inconvenient that the gun was never found.
