The two come to terms with their imprisonment while surviving the sadistic acts of prison warden Samuel Norton, and for both, a different sort of redemption awaits.
Director: Frank Darabont
Starring: Tim Robbins, Morgan Freeman, Bob Gunton, William Sadler, Clancy Brown, Gil Bellows
(Widescreen, Subtitles, 1994, 15, 5 Star)

It is one of the all time best. Currently number 1 in the IMDB user rankings.

Trouble is, this is the HD TV programme thread and it's not in HD!!

Why do people scissor and paste stuff off the internet without acknowledging where the content has come from ? You're not at university now !

The movie is a cornerstone of Film4 so quite disappointing given the recent Blu-ray release CH4 haven't spend a little cash to get hold of the master, I would assume it's on the market as the Blu has been out a while now.

You didn't, but you posted it in a forum for HD programmes.

Anyway, it is as you say one the greatest films of all time.

Not listed as such on the EPG or Digiguide.
Excellent Blu-ray release and cheap as well, what is it about the movie, it was always one of the cheaper DVD's as well

Is it correct that the programme is only HD if the 4HD DOG is showing?
