Abstract

This article wants to indicate the use of biblical allusion in The Shawshank Redemption movie adapted from a Stephen King‟s novella, Rita Hayworth and Shawshank Redemption. In its adaptation process, Frank Darabont, the movie director, seems to increase the level of hope by contrasting hope from desperation. The deeper meaning of the theme “hope” is caused by the use of biblical allusion, which is the concept of hope, implemented in the movie. This article will use the biblical allusion concept to analyse the deeper meaning of the theme in the movie. The result shows there are three new findings from the movie, not found in the novella, causing the deeper meaning of the theme. First, Darabont uses foil characters, Brooks and Warden Norton, to compare the concept of hope introduced by Andy and the desperation. Second, Darabont adds some music elements to the movie as a media used for remaining the hope. Music gives strength and endurance to survive from facing the struggles. Third, Darabont shows that there must be a reward or result for every single hope. Nothing is useless for anyone who keeps his hope within him and be brave to make it happen.
