One of the best films ever!

Rating: 10/10 (21 October 2015)

Having watched it too many times, I still find myself thrilled and touched by it. I do not see it as a film "made in prison" but more like "in life". It is the strength underneath that makes you what you are. Sometimes it needs more than a good director, a writer or an effective cast to create a masterpiece. "The Shawshank Redemption", for me, has it all! ... First Morgan Freeman and then Tim Robbins, push us towards a world made of realism, darkness, acceptance and redemption, and finally victory over those who believe that power over other people makes them powerful... such a joke indeed. I really believe that one must watch this film at least one time. There will be much to learn.
