One of the greatest films of all-time, and keep an eye out for Jazmine’s upcoming Catching Up with Classics feature next week as she’s watching it for the first time, The Shawshank Redemption is getting an excellent Ultimate Collector’s Edition release on Blu-ray this 28 September from Warner Bros. Home Entertainment!
Directed by Frank Darabont, and Oscar-nominated, this limited edition Blu-ray is being released exclusively via Zavvi, and contains:
- Exclusive Film Artwork
- 32-page Collector’s Booklet
- Replica Theatrical Poster
- 4 Art Cards

The truth is, few movies capture the triumph of the human spirit as memorably as Darabont’s The Shawshank Redemption, from the same Stephen King story collection that gave us Stand By Me. Morgan Freeman plays Red, a lifer who knows how to cope with the hopelessness of Shawshank State Prison. Tim Robbins plays new inmate Andy, a quiet banker wrongly convicted of murder – and whose indomitable will earns Red’s respect and friendship. Andy’s resourcefulness brings hope and change to the entire prison. He’s full of surprises. And the best comes last, leading to one of the most satisfying finales in movie history…

- Commentary by Writer/Director Frank Darabont
