Superb, moving, possibly the greatest film of all time

Rating: 10/10 (24 July 2001)

It is tough to summarize the true power of this truly great film. It was moving, thought-provoking, and powerful. It was truly robbed of the 1994 Best picture, just because Forrest Gump was more succesful in theatres. Shawshank was much deeper, and i was a great injustice. Shawshank chronicled the relationship between two jailed inmate through the 40's, 50's and 60's. It was a film about how no matter how hard a man is broken, beaten down, and crushed emoionally he still can keep hope. I truly loved this film and it grows better with each viewing. Tim Robbins and Morgan Freeman gave great performances in this film. Frank Darabot had great direction over this film, and Stephen King's short story was great. This is a must see for anyone. Like I said before this is in my opinion the greatest fim ever made.
