Corrected entry: Near the beginning, Viktor does everything to turn up the volume on a set of TVs. He passed some TVs where the volume was already up. He had no reason to leave them, and also he could have just returned to the audible ones.

The Shawshank Redemption (1994)
Corrected entry: After Andy has escaped, we see a shot of his and the neighbouring cells. There simply is no room for any hollow wall between the cells - which is the wall where the poster is hanging. The basic premise of the movie does not hold.
