Shawskank's a really good movie but not the best. I'd probably go with The Godfather. Or Heat. I love that movie.

It would have been OK if Robbins wasn’t so much of an ***!!!

Is The Shawshank Redemption the best film ever?
Not even close.

Nothing with Tim Robbins could be the best film ever.

Heat is one of the most underrated movies of all time . . . probably because of its inaccurate reputation as a “shoot ‘em up” action movie. Great cast, awesome story line, and compelling dialogue. Riveting, dramatic scenes, too.

Shawshank’s an example of a movie so compelling that you can watch it multiple times and feel a little bit more human and enlightened each time. There are a couple of dozen films like that. But the best one of all is Doctor Zhivago. David Lean is like Rembrandt with a movie camera; and the script is quote after quote as to why communism sucks to high heaven. Quotes and scenarios, like a parade (or a funeral procession) simply and mercilessly hammer communism into the ground.

".... through five hundred yards of sh!t smelling foulness I can't even imagine, or maybe I just don't want to. Five hundred yards... that's the length of five football fields, just shy of half a mile.

Nope.
“All About Eve”
Tied Titanic for most nominations ever, but I think there was some back room dealing going on, and Bette Davis didn’t get the Oscar.
She lost to one of the all time most stupid azz movies - some gal who played a bit part in “Harvey”

Shawshank’s a decent prison film, with a good ending.
Midnight Express was a little more horrific but also ended well.
