Изкуплението Шоушенк „Изкуплението Шоушенк“ (на английски: The Shawshank Redemption) е американски филм от 1994 г. със сценарист и режисьор Франк Дарабонт, базиран на повестта на Стивън Кинг - „Рита Хейуърт и Изкуплението Шоушенк“. Във филма участват Тим Робинс в ролята на Анди Дюфрейн и Морган Фрийман в ролята на Елис „Ред“ Рединг. Сюжетът на „Шоушенк“ се върти около живота на Анди Дюфрейн в затвора, след като е осъден за убийството на жена си и нейния любовник. Въпреки ниското приемане от бокс офисите (отчасти заради конкуренцията от комерсиалният успех на филми като „Форест Гъмп“, „Криминале“ и „Скорост“), „Шоушенк“ получава благоприятни рецензии от критиците и се наслаждава на забележителен живот по кабелната телевизия, на видео и DVD. Устойчиво е подреждан между най-добрите филми за всички времена.

September 23, 1994|By Gene Siskel. Our Flick of the Week is "The Shawshank Redemption," and this is simply marvelous entertainment that breathes life into a genre that I thought had been dead for a decade-the prison picture. But to call "The Shawshank Redemption" a prison picture is as accurate as calling "One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest" a hospital picture. Those are the settings of these similar films, but they really are inspirational dramas of individuals struggling against overbearing authority. Tim Robbins, one of our best, most casual, young actors, plays a banker in the 1940s who is falsely sent to Shawshank Prison for the death of his wife and her lover. In this maximum security penitentiary, Robbins is harassed by the warden, beaten by guards, and sexually abused by inmates. The first and best friend he makes is the elder statesman of the yard, a longtime convict played by the great Morgan Freeman. Over time, Robbins will make other friends, some of whom will be absolutely paralyzed by freedom in the straight world. Even better than "Birdman of Alcatraz," "The Shawshank Redemption" creates the world of overbearing closure that is prison. "One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest" was set in confinement, too, and like that story, the narrative drive of "The Shawshank Redemption"-based on a story by the prolific Stephen King-is a journey of freedom, physical and psychological. "The Shawshank Redemption" comes out of nowhere in the sense that it is a first feature film by Frank Darabont, who, with this one work, declares himself a special talent. He adapted King's story for the screen and insisted on directing the story too, much in the same way that Sylvester Stallone could not be pried loose from "Rocky." Guts equals glory. "The Shawshank Redemption" is playing at the Water Tower and Old Orchard Theaters. If you can't get into see "Quiz Show," this should be your next choice. (STAR)(STAR)(STAR)(STAR) - (equals) New this week - MY FAIR LADY (McClurg Court). A marvelous restoration of the 30-year-old musical, precisely the kind of high-class popular entertainment that Hollywood can't seem to make these days. Audrey Hepburn is a physical wonder; Rex Harrison defines his role; and production designer Gene Allen is the hidden star. A big screen production for the entire family. (STAR)(STAR)(STAR)(STAR) - THE NEW AGE (The Esquire). A sometimes smart social commentary on Los Angeles characters who seek spiritual salvation when they can't buy every object they want. Judy Davis and Peter Weller play a trendy couple who look like they are from the outtakes of "Short Cuts" and "The Player." Their story was written and directed by Michael Tolkin, the writer of "The Player." R. (STAR)(STAR)(STAR) - TERMINAL VELOCITY (Esquire, Biograph, and outlying). A silly action picture about a sky-diving instructor (Charlie Sheen) who gets caught up with a plot to steal Russian gold bullion that is intended to serve the oppressed people in the post-Cold War world there. Nastassja Kinski is wasted in a frivolous role as a Russian agent who wants to do good. Some of the comic writing undercuts the preposterous story. PG-13 (STAR)(STAR) - TIMECOP (Chestnut Station, Webster Place, and outlying). Jean-Claude Van Damme stars as a patrolman in this time travel thriller. His assignment is to make sure that no one alters the past in order to change the future. The bad guy is an over-the-top senator (Ron Silver) who wants to become president. Van Damme is compelling only when he takes his clothes off, which he doesn't do often enough here. (STAR)(STAR)
