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

Meticulous, resolved, contemplative and earnest.
We read them all: the case against is ruthless_ruth's, funniest is quinn.ironist's. Marked below.
It is fine. It is a warm bath of a film and everyone I know treats it like scripture. Freeman's narration is doing a lot of the work people credit to the story.
A greeting card with a prison in it. Every emotion is pre-approved. I know I am alone here and I am comfortable.
A beautifully made greeting card. Everyone in it is exactly who they seem, which is the opposite of prison.
