15. The Shawshank Redemption

Based on a novel by Stephen King, the epic drama by director Frank Darabont about a man’s escape from jail after a wrongful conviction was a smash hit. While Stephen was hesitant about his work being adapted as it is dialogue-heavy, Darabont lent new life by giving the characters depth, hiring Morgan Freeman and Tim Robbins, who give stellar performances, and adding an emotional angle, which resonated with the audiences.
