Give us your opinions/reviews so if its good we'll go see it, and if

I saw the Shawshank Redemption recently for the first time-- really
good movie about two guys who become friends in prison. Tim Robbins
(the innocent white guy protaganist you see in all prison movies) and
Morgan Freeman as the longtime inmate who befriends him. The underlying
theme of the movie (well its actually stated at the end), is that
redemption comes from within-- and you see that Robbins spends his time
in prison attempting to redeem himself by helping the other prisoners,
building a library and doing the tax returns for all the prison guards.
But ultimately his redemption is an inner, spiritual thing. It is a
lesson he teaches Morgan Freeman, who has to learn how to deal with his
own fears. I particularly liked the ending of the movie which shows
their friendship survived. (SHAWSHANK REDEMPTION-- **** four stars
