Columbia, 1994

PRINCIPAL CAST Morgan Freeman, Tim Robbins DIRECTOR Frank Darabont PRODUCER Niki Marvin SCREENWRITER Frank Darabont

Morgan Freeman is "Red Redding" and Tim Robbins is "Andy Dufresne" in this classic adaptation of a rare non-horror story by Stephen King, entitled "Rita Hayworth and the Shawshank Redemption." The film reminds us to "Get busy living, or get busy dying," as it presents prison life as a world where violence and tedium are less important that the lead characters' patience and determination. Since the film's release in 1994, its audience has grown from a loyal cult to a global force - as evidenced by its recent position on AFI's 100 Years...100 Movies - 10th Anniversary Edition.
