The Shawshank Redemption
Some things are better late than never. Though lately, I happened to watch yesterday a 1994 movie, The Shawshank Redemption - one of the most beautiful movies I have seen in recent times. The movie is about a person in a prison for a life sentence, about his inmates, and most importantly about hope. Today on IMDB I found that the movie is all time great - ranked second!
The courageous attempt of Andy (played by Tim Robbins) to escape from prison reminded me of "Kitani naavo mein kitani baar" a Jnanpith awarded work by Agyeya, particularly the lines "kuhaase mein pehchaanta hua tumhaara hi prabha-mandal - aashvast, aaklaant... main".
Only thing I can say about the movie - one who doesn't watch it, will probably miss something.

The Shawshank Redemption is truly inspiring- reminds you that no situation is entirely hopeles..:)
All time number one movie in IMDB is "The Godfather". You could have clicked HTML links in my post to answer your query!
Dear Amit,
