A film that takes the audience on a trip to ‘epiphany central’. The Shawshank Redemption is a timeless film focusing on the life of Andy Dufresne (Tim Robbins), imprisoned for the murder of his wife and her lover. His perilous journey through the prison system is met with many obstacles such as death, fraud, rape and many more. Although, he does learn a lot on his journey, things that people don't often think about, things that are too often given an answer to without true thought. On his way Andy makes a very important friend called 'Red' (Morgan Freeman), a tradesman within the prison, who is an important influence on Andy throughout. We are taken on a journey of hope as Andy serves his life sentence, seeing life from a totally different perspective. The Shawshank Redemption is such a brilliant film simply because of how we are able to relate to certain aspects of friendship, love and denial. Once you have watched this film, I will assure you that you will look at life from a different perspective.
