The film, 'The Shawshank Redemption' is an impressive film where Andy Dufresne's (Tim Robbins, who is a young and successful banker) life changes drastically when he is convicted and sentenced to life imprisonment for the murders of his wife and her secret lover. The film was directed by a very talented man, Frank Darabont. Frank Darabont also directed the films 'Frankenstein', 'Faranheight 451' and 'Young Indiana Jones'. He also directed the film 'Green Mile' which was strangely set in a prison and written by the Novelist Seven King just like 'The Shawshank Redemption.'The main characters in the film include Morgan Freeman - Red, Bob Ganton - the Warden, William Sadler - Heywood. It was set in the 1940's and spans about 20- 30 years in Mainsfield Reformatory in Ohio. The film was nominated for many Oscars, however, it never got a single one! This was because the films, 'Forest Gump', 'Pulp Fiction' and 'Speed' were all out in the same year.

andy&candy se van a la cama(pero en camas separada...In my opinion there are many good points about the film. For example, starting with the tag line of the film, 'FEAR CAN HOLD YOU PRISONER... HOPE CAN SET YOU FREE' this gives you a great message that positive thinking can save you when in trouble, it also could be the moral of the film. The tag line also says that hope is a good thing.
The symbolism in the film is also extremely good. In the scene where Andy first escapes from prison and is in the rain is probably where the most amount of symbolism is portrayed. When Andy is spreading his arms out and looking at the sky, it looks like he is in the same position as Jesus was when at the cross being crucified. Also when the lightning hits, it gives rays...
