How did a low-key prison movie which was considered a box-office
flop on its original release become one of the most popular movies
of all time? Mark Kermode traces the history of this unexpected
audience favourite from the pages of Stephen King's novella "Rita
Hayworth and Shawshank Redemption", through the icy corridors of
Ohio's Mansfield Reformatory (whose imposing gothic architecture
dominates the film), to the television and video screens on which
"The Shawshank Redemption" became a phenomenon. This study traces
the history of "The Shawshank Redemption" and draws on interviews
with writer/director Frank Darabont and leading players Tim Robbins
and Morgan Freeman. The book also explores the near-religious
fervour that the film inspires in a huge number of devoted fans.
