One of the greatest adaptations of all time

Rating: 8/10 (2 May 2019)

There's a reason why The Shawshank Redemption is top of so many film lists. It is a brilliant adaptation of the book by Stephen King. It captures the eloquence of his words and brings the characters to life. You care about the people in this film, and you're hurt when they are hurting. You want them to succeed, and the pay-off more than justifies the journey. If you haven't seen this film, why not watch it next?
