This month, we'll be showing a slightly more modern classic - 1994's The Shawshank Redemption. Starring Tim Robbins and Morgan Freeman, it was a film that began as a box-office disappointment but rapidly became a cultural touchstone. With themes of friendship and human dignity in inhumane environments, it is considered by some to be among the greatest movies of all time.
