Courier is a popular choice of font because it is a fixed pitch font and because scripts tend to follow one minute of screenplay per page, having equal spacing between letters is advantageous. Most film scripts are in 12 point courier new for this exact reason however, some writers only write in a Courier font for reassurance as it has been known for directors and producers to not even look at a script for it was not in a Courier font.]]> 2017-01-06 11:34:04 UTC https://padlet.com/tillie_q/dy2qx60s7a9r/wish/145657023 tillie_q https://padlet.com/tillie_q/dy2qx60s7a9r/wish/145660586 The dialogue used in the script is written in the way that the character would speak.

The main one is when Andy asks Red for the actress Rita Hayworth and Red gets him a poster of her. This enable Andy to start his plan of digging to freedom. The other is when Andy has the chance to prove his innocence but a corrupt warden prevented this by killing Tommy]]> 2017-01-06 13:17:09 UTC https://padlet.com/tillie_q/dy2qx60s7a9r/wish/145670271 tillie_q https://padlet.com/tillie_q/dy2qx60s7a9r/wish/145672748 This is when a fellow prisoner gives a meloncholy Andy a piece of rope, leading viewers to believe Andy was going to hang himself]]> 2017-01-06 13:28:37 UTC https://padlet.com/tillie_q/dy2qx60s7a9r/wish/145672748 tillie_q https://padlet.com/tillie_q/dy2qx60s7a9r/wish/145673419 I think there are two denouements in the plot line. The first is when Andy Dufresne escapes and the second is when Red finally gets approved for early release, gets a job and eventually meets up with Andy on an Island in the Pacific]]> 2017-01-06 13:31:37 UTC https://padlet.com/tillie_q/dy2qx60s7a9r/wish/145673419 tillie_q https://padlet.com/tillie_q/dy2qx60s7a9r/wish/145966229 Shawshank Redemption is in the Drama, Crime and Thriller genre. This is evident in the script in a few different ways. The first thing I noticed was that the majority of Dialog exchanged between prisoners, and between the prisoners and prison guards were very brief and short-lived with the exception of Red and Andy having the odd in-depth conversation about their lives.]]> 2017-01-09 13:25:40 UTC https://padlet.com/tillie_q/dy2qx60s7a9r/wish/145966229 tillie_q https://padlet.com/tillie_q/dy2qx60s7a9r/wish/145969092 As you can see here, the Dialog consists of short, cut up sentences which adds tension; increasing the thriller aspect in the script.]]> 2017-01-09 13:35:34 UTC https://padlet.com/tillie_q/dy2qx60s7a9r/wish/145969092 tillie_q https://padlet.com/tillie_q/dy2qx60s7a9r/wish/145979421 2017-01-09 14:07:49 UTC https://padlet.com/tillie_q/dy2qx60s7a9r/wish/145979421 tillie_q https://padlet.com/tillie_q/dy2qx60s7a9r/wish/145980931 Another thing is that the dialog consists of a lot of Jargon, which is common in a lot of crime and thriller movies. Both prisoners and prison guards speak informally because of the year the movie is set in. There is also of prison slang like saying 'smokes' instead of cigarettes and referring to new prisoners as 'horses']]> 2017-01-09 14:11:55 UTC https://padlet.com/tillie_q/dy2qx60s7a9r/wish/145980931 tillie_q https://padlet.com/tillie_q/dy2qx60s7a9r/wish/145983590 2017-01-09 14:18:35 UTC https://padlet.com/tillie_q/dy2qx60s7a9r/wish/145983590 tillie_q https://padlet.com/tillie_q/dy2qx60s7a9r/wish/145988144 The script makes it very clear that the films target audience is 18+ just by the maturity of the language and some of the scenes.]]> 2017-01-09 14:29:48 UTC https://padlet.com/tillie_q/dy2qx60s7a9r/wish/145988144 tillie_q https://padlet.com/tillie_q/dy2qx60s7a9r/wish/145990383 2017-01-09 14:35:46 UTC https://padlet.com/tillie_q/dy2qx60s7a9r/wish/145990383 tillie_q https://padlet.com/tillie_q/dy2qx60s7a9r/wish/145991715 2017-01-09 14:39:27 UTC https://padlet.com/tillie_q/dy2qx60s7a9r/wish/145991715 tillie_q https://padlet.com/tillie_q/dy2qx60s7a9r/wish/145993112 The sex scene above is one of the most obvious indications as it is rather detailed which makes me believe that it would only be appropriate for adult viewing.
There is also a lot of profanities spoken by the characters and mature scenes, some that only adults would understand, such as the whole situation between Andy Dufresne and 'The Sisters'.]]> 2017-01-09 14:43:21 UTC https://padlet.com/tillie_q/dy2qx60s7a9r/wish/145993112 tillie_q https://padlet.com/tillie_q/dy2qx60s7a9r/wish/147405920 2017-01-16 19:17:50 UTC https://padlet.com/tillie_q/dy2qx60s7a9r/wish/147405920
