肖申克的救赎Shawshank Redemption Movie Script

RED:

People say you're a cold fish. They say you think your sh*t smells sweeter than ordinary. That true?

ANDY:

What do you think?

RED:

Ain't made up my mind yet.

Heywood nudges Jigger. Watch this. He winds up and throws the ball hard -- right at Andy's head. Andy sees it coming out of the corner of his eye, whirls and catches it. Beat. He sends the ball right back, zinging it into Heywood's hands. Heywood drops the ball and grimaces, wringing his stung hands.

ANDY:

I understand you're a man who knows how to get things.

RED:

I'm known to locate certain things from time to time. They seem to fall into my hands. Maybe it's 'cause I'm Irish.

ANDY:

I wonder if you could get me a rock-hammer?

RED:

What 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. A toothbrush, see, is a non-lethal sort of object.

ANDY:

Fair enough. A rock-hammer is about eight or nine inches long. Looks 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.

Andy squats, motions Red to join him. Andy grabs a handful of dirt and sifts it through his hands. He finds a pebble and rubs it clean. It has a nice milky glow. He tosses it to Red.

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:

I'm a rockhound. At least I was, in my old life. I'd like to be again, on a limited scale.

RED:

Yeah, that or maybe plant your toy in somebody's skull?

ANDY:

I have no enemies here.

RED:

No? Just wait.

Red flicks his gaze past Andy. Bogs is watching them.

RED:

Word gets around. The Sisters have taken a real shine to you, yes they have. Especially Bogs.

ANDY:

Tell me something. Would it help if I explained to them I'm not homosexual?

RED:

Neither are they. You have to be human first. They don't qualify.
