The Shawshank Redemption




My Rating: *****


  1. Recall that not only did it not get recognized as best picture, but in that year's race it was pretty much an afterthought behind the Gump/Pulp main event.

    Nifty post - Thanks for the shout out btw!

  2. One of my favorite movie of all-time. Morgan Freeman was outstanding as Red.

  3. This movie pulls me in. If I see it on TV, I can't help stopping and watching it, no matter how far in it is. It has a great story with a great pace that grabs you and won't let go.

  4. I saw this movie when it was first released and have watched it at least a dozen times since then. The film is wonderfully written, and the actors were superb.

  5. "after murdering his wife and her lover." He did not kill them.

  6. Shawshank Redemption is without doubt one of the best films ever made, and definitely the best film of 1994. Yes, it is better than Lion King, and I really like that too.


Comments are appreciated. More so if they are appropriate.
