In 1946, a young New England banker, Andy Dufresne (Tim Robbins) is convicted of murdering his wife and her lover and sentenced to life at the Shawshank State Prison. Quiet and introspective, he gradually strikes up a friendship with the prison "fixer," Red (Morgan Freeman), and over the next two decades wins the trust of the warden and guards, but in his heart, he still yearns for freedom.

"When the film's conclusion starts to unfold, you suddenly realize that this is one of the more inspiring films you've seen in a long time -- yet you don't feel the least bit manipulated."
