Shawshank Redemption
https://www.nationalreview.com/2020/04/m...nal-power/

Well if you are sheltering in place and haven't seen it, Shawshank Redemption is the all time movie favorite on IMDb.

DON'T READ the article if you haven't seen the movie.

Its a great movie. Knew the Mother of the man who the movie is dedicated to. He died young, but his name is mentioned in a film that will still be viewed 100 years from now.

And if you think you have it bad, look at the main character Andy. His wife dead, accused of his wife's murder. Love the beer drinking scene.

Was thinking about a funny video of a kids' skit. 5 boys were in the skit about 6 years ago. One's sister died of brain cancer. One has had both parents in jail. A third's parents have divorced.

Stuff happens. Corona Virus is just one more.

*Waves hand.

Haven’t seen it. NO idea why, just hasn’t come in the queue for some reason. I’ve seen parts when flipping through channels, but it’s always 45 mins in and I don’t know what’s going on.

Need to put that on the list the next time the daughter wants to watch muh Marvel again, or the Missus tries to talk me into more Hugh Grant for the 48th gazillion time...

Top 5 of all time. My Dad, who went blind in the latter years, said it was one of the best he's ever "seen". Morgan Freeman narrating it I think is all you need to know.
