Working With A Bird
Brooks’ crow Jake is squawking when Andy arrives at the library to begin his new job as Brooks’ assistant. Robbins had to time his line, “Hey Jake, where’s Brooks?” so that the bird didn’t squawk as he was speaking. Robbins became acquainted with the bird over time and began to pick up on its squawking habit so that it never interrupted a scene, something Darabont praised him for. If you look closely, you can see Robbins watching the bird and waiting for it to squawk before delivering his sentence.
