Wonderful adaptation of a Stephen King Short Story. The depth of the main two characters is what makes the movie so enjoyable. Tim Robbins (in his best performance by far) plays Andy so remarkably, it's like the character walked right out of the Short Story. Morgan Freeman's portrayal of the hardened Redd is the perfect Yang to Robbins Ying. I felt like I was part of the movie. The ending is also perfect as it shows you can have hope in any dismal situation. I recommend this movie as a Must See!!! Very thought provocing and will keep you glued to the screen until the credits!
