Fear can hold you prisoner. Hope can set you free.

Framed in the 1940s for the double murder of his wife and her lover, upstanding banker Andy Dufresne begins a new life at the Shawshank prison, where he puts his accounting skills to work for an amoral warden. During his long stretch in prison, Dufresne comes to be admired by the other inmates -- including an older prisoner named Red -- for his integrity and unquenchable sense of hope.

05 February 10 This film passed me by, and I saw it for the first time many years after its release. And after watching it, it became number one in my personal movie rating. Few films can so stir the soul. But Shawshank Escape is one of those. Caught himself on the fact that someone rolls up his throat when Red, freed, reads a letter from Andy. more close This film passed me by, and I saw it for the first time many years after its release. And after watching it, it became number one in my personal movie rating. Few films can so stir the soul. But Shawshank Escape is one of those. Caught himself on the fact that someone rolls up his throat when Red, freed, reads a letter from Andy. - Remember, Red, hope is a good thing. Probably the best of things. And good things don't die. close

What do you think of the film as the No. 1 movie by most viewers? And the opinion is unbiased. At the box office, the film failed, and critics did not carry it. The movie is certainly inspiring and light, especially given the fact that it's happening in prison. But I found it too sentimental. Especially the last speech of the Red before the parole commission. Ah, this pleasant belief that one can be so emotional that one can get good with a capital letter. It’s something you always want to believe, but it doesn’t happen. Maybe it’s because the book is better. And she's not sentimental at all. close
