Join us for a 40th anniversary screening of Shawshank Redemption and conversation with cinematographer Roger Deakins and his longtime collaborator and wife, James Deakins.
Perhaps Deakins’ most widely known film, Shawshank frequently appears on lists of the best movies ever made. When it opened in 1994, Variety called it “a testament to the human spirit,” and “a rough diamond.”
Shawshank Redemption tells the story of Andy Dufresne (Tim Robbins), wrongly imprisoned for the murder of his wife and her lover. Over the course of his lengthy imprisonment, Dufresne forges allies within the prison, in particular “Red” Redding (Morgan Freeman) and Brooks Hatlen (James Whitmore). His background in accounting as a bank employee leads to his being chosen to assist corrupt Warden Norton (Bob Gunton) and many of the prison guards with their financial needs and earns him privileges that enable him to make plans for a life outside Shawshank’s concrete walls.
