The prisoners in the movie The Shawshank Redemption watch a classic Rita Hayworth film that has more significance than it seems. Written and directed by Frank Darabont, the iconic prison drama was adapted from the Stephen King novella Rita Hayworth and Shawshank Redemption, originally included in his collection Different Seasons. Rita Hayworth was one of the biggest stars of the 1940s. She doesn’t appear in The Shawshank Redemption, but she is central to the plot. Not only is one of Hayworth’s movies screened for the prisoners, but Andy Dufresne also uses a big poster of Hayworth to conceal the tunnel he’s digging out of his cell.
