It's funny how Shawshank's fortunes have changed. I remember when it came out I wanted to see it but missed it because it didn't do well and disappeared from theaters quickly. I eventually caught it a couple years later and loved it, then watched over time as it very slowly transformed from being this incredibly underrated and ignored movie into being a movie that everybody loved. It's kind of amazing that it's now topping lists and being played to death on cable.
