Again, "Shawshank Redemption" is a movie I saw for the sole reason of its being based on a Stephen King novelette. Morgan Freeman and Tim Robbins made that movie. It simply wouldn't have been as good without them. For those of you out there who see someone like Tim Robbins in a movie like "Nothing to Lose" and judge their acting ability based on one fairly crappy role....get out more. Do a little research. Go to your local video store and find other movies with the actor in them. Watch those movies. THEN judge them as an actor. See, I didn't like Tim Robbins in "Hudsucker Proxy." Why? The movie was terrible. The writing was atrocious. The plot sucked. So I saw "Shawshank Redemption." My opinion changed immediately. I suggest you do the same.......
