The Shawshank Redemption
Of course, this list would never be complete if The Shawshank Redemption is not shown here. According to film critic Roger Ebert – “[Shawshank Redemption] is deeper than most films; about continuity in a lifetime, based on friendship and hope.” Despite receiving many awards and nominations, the film was not a hit in the theaters! The film’s cinematographer, Roger Deakins, later won the American Society of Cinematographers award for Outstanding Achievement in Cinematography. The film was recognized for preservation in the National Film Registry 21 years after its release.
