Nominated for 7 Academy Awards, including Best Picture and Best Screenplay, The Shawshank Redemption, starring Tim Robbins and Morgan Freeman, is an extraordinary tale of hope and survival inside a maximum security prison. Based on a Stephen King novella, Frank Darabont's screenplay follows the complex twenty-year relationship between two convicts who have little in common—except friendship.

This book features a facsimile of the shooting script, selected storyboards, over 35 behind-the-scenes photos, an introduction by Stephen King, and notes on the scene-by-scene changes made in production and post-production written exclusively for this edition by the film's writer/director, Frank Darabont.
