Plot
Nominated for seven Academy Awards including Best Film and Best Actor, The Shawshank Redemption is a modern classic, an extraordinary tale of hope, friendship and survival inside a maximum security prison. City Banker Andy Dufresne arrives at Shawshank Prison in 1947, convicted of two brutal murders to serve out a double life sentence. He discovers that when they send you to Shawshank Prison for life...that's exactly what they take. Within the confines of Shawshank, Andy forms an unlikely friendship with the prison "fixer" Red. He also becomes popular with the warden and the prison's guards as he is able to use his banking experience to help the corrupt officials amass personal fortunes. With an extraordinary twist in the tale, Andy finds that survival comes down to a simple choice - get busy living or get busy dying. This DVD contains both pan-and-scan and wide screen versions.
