Interpretation of the use in Shawshank Redemption

[edit]

Is the interpretation of the use in Shawshank Redemption coming from a reliable source? Namely "This is ironic as the opera characters are singing about a duplicitous love letter to expose infidelity, and Dufresne's wife's affair is the event which indirectly leads to his imprisonment." It is a possible interpretation, of course, but it seems to be original research. For example, other interpretations are possible. A plain one, the lyrics are talking about in the wind, under the trees, in the little grove, and the rest he will understand, which is precisely the plan near the end, in which Red once free (in the wind) will go to the grove and the rest he will understand (finding the rock and the box etc.). This is also original research. It would be good to find a direct quote from either King himself, or from a critic. Cactus0192837465 (talk) 16:08, 13 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]
