A great movie based on a novella, Rita Hayworth and The Shawshank Redemption by Steven King. This is my contribution for SATURDAY NIGHT AT THE MOVIES.

Pictured is the Fort Madison State Penitentiary in Fort Madison, Iowa. It has since closed and been replaced by the Iowa State Penintentiary.

The photo shows that freedom or incarceration are sometimes just across the street.

That is one movie I have not seen but seems to be on many "favorite" lists. But, I have seen your picture and can easily see that it is very well done.

Owd Fella Tick (OFT), a very apt entry for the SATURDAY (or SUNDAY) NIGHT AT THE MOVIES theme.
Impressive 'building'. I'm glad however that you haven't provided us with a picture of its inside, although it's probably no longer in use, 😂 . I agree with you with the last line of your narrative, my friend.

Shawshank Redemption was one of the great, and here is a fine photo as well

My thanks to all who leave comments for my work and to those of you who like one enough to make it a favourite. To touch just one person that way makes each image worthwhile. . . . . . . . . .. . . . "The question is not what you look at, but what you see" ~ Marcel Proust

This photo is captured superbly, and is just right for the Shawshank Redemption. Composition, clarity and light are perfect.

This was a great yet intense movie. Unfortunately, the part that sticks out the most of this movie is the ending.
