Director Frank Darabonts The Shawshank Redemption is an endearing classic that has stood the test of time thanks to its universal themes of hope, freedom, and friendship. Tim Robbins was brilliant as Andy Dufresne a man sentenced to life in prison for the murder of his wife going above and beyond what anyone expected to deliver the performance of a lifetime. While this included playing off the legendary Morgan Freeman, Robbins time on set was also spent in an actual river of “cow poop” in order to capture the films pivotal scene, a testament to just how far he was willing to go for the sake of art.
