Absolutely Brilliant!

Rating: 10/10 (30 August 2010)

Wihthout a doubt this is one of my all time favorite movies and is probably the best Stephen King film.I had never heard of it until i saw the IMDb top 250.Better than The Godfather.I'm super glad this is #1 on the top 250.It has an amazing plot and is a movie that sends a lot of messages one being that institutionalization has a huge effect on people that are in prison for many years and they get used to it.When they leave they want to go back to the prison as it is their home. It is a shame it didn't win any awards at the Academy Awards.If I were on the panel deciding what movie should win Best Picture Oscar I would have picked The Shawshank Redemption which would have been a hard task as 2 other masterpieces Forrest Gump and Pulp Fiction were also in the nominees.1994 must have been a really outstanding year in film.I wish I could give it 11 stars.This is a movie you have to see.It truly is a film that is for watching dozens of times and is a beauty all the time
