This film is truly a work of art a master piece one of the greats. This film is not just so amazing because of the amazing story (based of the Stephen king book) but also because of the amazing acting and directing. It's about Andy Dufresne (Tim Robbins) who is a banker that gets convicted of double murder and is sentenced to life term at shaw-shank were he meats Ellis read redding ( Morgan freeman ) who picks him as the new recruit most likely to crack under the pressure manly to the fact that they have a corrupt warden (Bob Gunton), sadistic guards led by Capt. Byron Hadley (Clancy Brown), and inmates who are little better than animals, willing to use rape or beatings to insure their dominance. But Andy does not crack: he has the hope of the truly innocent, which (together with his smarts) allow him to prevail behind bars. He uses his banking skills to win favour with the wardens and guards.
