    The movie the Shawshank Redemption‚ based on the book by Steven King‚ I believe is one of the best movies ever made. The portrayal of prison life in the movie is the best I have seen and a star-studded cast including Morgan Freeman supports the characters and brings to life the everyday struggles of life behind bars.
