Review:
Why do I want to write 230 fourth remark in The Shawshank Redemption? I'm not sure - almost everything that could possibly be said about what has been said. But like so many other people who have posted comments, I was and am deeply touched by this simple and eloquent depiction of hope and friendship and redemption. The only other movie I've ever seen that effect me so strongly is to kill a mockingbird. Both films leaves me feeling cleaner to have seen them.I was not to see this movie at all, I do not like prison movies, and I do not normally see them. I work at a branch library, and one day when I was checking in The Shawshank Redemption out to one of our older patrons, she said to me when I feel down or depressed, I check this movie and watch it and it always makes me feel better. At the time I thought it was very strange. One day there was nothing on TV except the things I certainly would not see under any circumstances or things that I had seen too many times already. I remembered what she said when I saw it. I've seen it many many times since then, and it gets better with each showing.No action, no special effects - just men in prison uniforms talking to each other.The Shawshank Redemption and To Kill a Mockingbird is the best movie I ever 've seen. I will not judge its technical advantages - I dont really care about it. I have read that Citizen Kane or The Godfather or this or that movie is the best movie ever made. They may have the best technique or the most influential films ever made, but not the best. The best films are those that touch the soul. It takes a movie like The Shawshank Redemption to touch the soul.
