After the murder of his wife, hotshot banker Andrew Dufresne (Tim Robbins) is sent to Shawshank Prison, where the usual unpleasantness occurs. Over the years, he retains hope and eventually gains the respect of his fellow inmates, especially longtime convict "Red" Redding (Morgan Freeman), a black marketeer, and becomes influential within the prison. During his stay he changes the lives of those in his circle of friends and gets them better treatment from the guards and other inmates.
When i first saw this movie ears ago i was taken aback by the depth of it not only the story itself but how the actors forced you to care about them. I thought there were a few great scenes in the movie especially when they explain what happens to the characters after they are gone. I rate this move a 10 out of 10. If you can see this movie and tell me its not a great movie then something has died inside of you so go to the doctor.
