What if?

Rating: 10/10 (7 January 2015)

What if the tunnel was blocked at the end and so he ended up trapped there? I guess he could have crawled backwards and up out the pipe again, but still horrible to think about.
This film is so popular because the pipe symbolizes your working life and the beach scene at the end is the escape from working life. Its not about prison, its about the 9 to 5.
Everyone wants to do an Andy Dufresne.
Also, he'd escaped his marriage and gets to live out his life having fun on the beach playing around a boat with his pal and that is presented as the definition of Paradise, maybe it is, but you know it'd probably get old after a couple of days.
