The Best

Rating: 10/10 (11 November 2006)

This is one of the most moving, beautiful movies I've ever seen. You can feel the desperation and the hope. I encourage everyone to see it. The language can be a little graphic, but is probably appropriate for a movie such as this. Tim Robbins and Morgan Freeman are surrounded by outstanding character actors who only enhance their performances. They add something to every scene. My favorite scene is that of "Andy" and "Red" discussing Mexico and the character of Andy sums up the whole movie with the line, "Get busy living or get busy dying". I've always loved this movie and watch it on TV whenever it's showing. I finally bought the 10 years anniversary DVD addition.
