For one of the most celebrated movies of all time, another redemption arc is on the horizon.
Released in 1994 to modest box office numbers, "The Shawshank Redemption" has since become a resounding success, landing a top spot on cinema rankings from IMDb to Rolling Stone. Now, it's making its way up the streaming charts as well.
Back on Peacock for audiences' home-viewing pleasure, the movie, which follows one prisoner's odyssey through a cruel system, broke into the platform's top 10 most-watched titles this week.
Based on a Stephen King novella, "Shawshank" tells the story of Andy Dufresne (Tim Robbins), who was convicted of killing his wife and her lover and sentenced to life in prison despite a plea of not guilty. While in prison, Dufresne befriends fellow inmate Ellis "Red" Redding (Morgan Freeman), known for helping to smuggle contraband into the penitentiary.
