Coincidence With Names
When Andy is first assigned to the jail library for work, the first correctional officer who comes in looking for financial advice introduces himself as “I’m Dekins.” Coincidentally, the film’s cinematographer was named Roger Deakins. Strangely, because the character of Dekins appeared in King’s novella, Frank Darabont wrote him into the script before employing any of his other crew members. However, it turned out to be just coincidental because the character and Deakins spell their names differently.
