S is for “Shawshank Redemption.”
The 1994 dramatic film featured Tim Robbins as Andy Dufresne, banker-turned-prison inmate, convicted of shooting and killing his wife and her lover and sentenced to nearly 20 years in Shawshank State Penitentiary. Enlisted by guards and the warden for money laundering and other projects, Dufresne eventually ended up writing letters to the state government each week on behalf of the prison’s failing library.
The story spelled out the significance of self-worth and stressed character issues.
“Shawshank Redemption” cast members included Morgan Freeman, Gil Gellows, Clancy Brown, Bob Gunton, William Sadler, and James Whitmore.
The screenplay was based on “Rita Hayworth and Shawshank Redemption,” a story by Stephen King.
Here’s the movie trailer.
