THE SHAWSHANK REDEMPTION
January 1, 2014  | By David Bianculli

Spike, 8:00 p.m. ET

 
With a story by Stephen King, adapted for the screen and directed by Frank Darabont, this 1994 prison drama is another film that has achieved cult status, and emerged as one of the most important movies of its era. Tim Robbins and Morgan Freeman, as prisoners who develop a slow but steady alliance, are two major reasons for it. A third: the music over the loudspeaker scene. Classic, brilliant cinema.
