Terrific Movie

Rating: Null/10 (25 September 2001)

This movie is one of the best dramas that I have ever seen. The movie follows the life of a hot shot banker who is convicted for the murder of his wife and her lover. He proclaims throughout the movie that he is innocent however. As the movie progresses we see things inside this prison that we hope never really happens. There are incidents of brutality, graft, and even murder. The guards of the prison use the main character, Andy Dufresne, talent as a banker to do their tax returns and the warden uses him to make a fortune. Andy said it best when he said, "The funny thing is - on the outside, I was an honest man, straight as an arrow. I had to come to prison to be a crook." Everything was different inside the prison. This movie shows that no matter what the conditions are they can never completely break someone's spirit which is shown by this movie's happy ending.
