Rating: 10/10 (18 March 2018)

Shawshank redemption one of my favorite movie Tim Robbins (Andy) did a fantastic job in his role as a recently convicted felon. The flow of the movie from the start definitely captured my attention,
This Movie was directed by Frank Darabont... It is an adaptation of the Stephen King novella Rita Hayworth and Shawshank Redemption. Starring Morgan Freeman (Red) and Tim Robbins (Andy).
This movie revolves around a convicted Killer (Andy) who was convicted of killing his wife and lover), a banker who is sentenced to two life sentences at Shawshank State Prison for apparently murdering his wife and her lover.
The movie starts as Andy begins his track inside the prison. The uncertainly that awaits him within the prison walls is apparent on the faces of the prisoners being transported.
The initial scene involving the initiation into the prison and the other prisoner's wagering bets on who would be the first newbie to break down. Andy is befriended by another prisoner's Red who tries to guide him.
It's not known at this time but looking back Andy already has been planning how he may get out of that prison. Andy realizes that he has plenty of time to actionize his plan.
In the beginning he is treated like most other inmates and was victimized in many ways typical prisoners are treated. Andy had talents that soon were recognized not only by his fellow prisoner's but the staff of the prison.
Andy over time was required to help the warden in fraudulent activities and as a results was able to get special things for various inmates which included a library.
The plan Andy developed was simplistic in nature and only required one item to be brought into the prison using the connection many inmates had to the outside world. The rock hammer which is the key to the movie went undetected and so did Andy's ability to use it.
The time span of 20 years allowed Andy to execute his plan and finally escape the walls of the prison and on to freedom.
The Movie used lighting at its best to show damp and darkness of the prison and the outside lite to show a sense of freedom as the inmates strolled in the yard. I would recommend anyone to get this movie and watch it. It is one of the best films and makes it even better that it was filmed in Ohio. This is the kind of movie you could watch several times
I believe the movies a beautiful mind and the green mile would be movie types that could compare to this movie. My intent is to watch these to see if the stack up to Shawshank.
