Can you Compare shawshank redemption to count of Monte cristo?
Shawshank Redemption is my all time favourite movie. It has got tragedy, drama, victory over severe odds. Now apparently The Count of Monte Cristo has a different plot line set in a different milieu - the only commonality in the storyline being the jailbreak. Yet in spirit the two films I feel, are exactly same. The Revenge in both are stylish, muted and so fundamental to the storyline that it redeems itself in its execution. Perhaps the revenge in shawshank was swift as the last move in a game of chess while Monte Cristo scores higher on the melodrama and slower to checkmate the King. In fact now I have a strong suspicion that the author of Shawshank may have been strongly "inspired" by Monte Cristo. Frankly I have lost a little respect for the storyline of the movie after I saw Monte Cristo.
