In my top three films, Ever!

Rating: 10/10 (10 October 2013)

A story of injustice, friendship, hope and triumph.The film Starts with the main character played excellently by Tim Robbins, being falsely accused of Murder and being found guilty and ultimately sent to a maximum security prison, during this time we see his struggle behind bars and wonder if justice will ever be fulfilled! This film has such a great screenplay,full with great dialogue and amazing twists and turns that it is easily one of my top three films, ever! The main actors/characters, all turn in top performances, that one is swept along with their relationships and the plot! Morgan Freeman is a truly outstanding actor and in this film he excels in the role of 'Red', The old timer inmate, who befriends Tim Robbins, and build up a friendship the the film is centred on. When this film was first released it was totally under the radar and really didn't register as a 'Must See Film' but as the film was seen by more and more people, word of mouth, 'YOU HAVE TO SEE SHAWSHANK',made this film into the Super Cult classic film it has become, grossing many, Many times more in Video/DVDs sales than it ever did at the box office. in summary; Excellent and a must see, if you haven't already seen this film..do it now!
