For some, 1994 is fairly recent.

A classic is not necessarily confined by how long ago it was made. I didn't really appreciate how much of a good actor Tim Robbins was until I saw The Shawshank Redemption. He was also good in Arlington road.

Arlington Road is a FANTASTIC FILM and Robbins is great in it. speaking of him, he has been great in A LOT of movies and people just dont remember how good he is. Robbins good acting movies include
Shawshank
Bull Durham
Arlington Road
The Hudsucker Proxy
Short cuts
Jscobs Ladder
Cadillac Man
and MANY MORE - http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0000209/
HE has a great body of work in his career IMO.

A Genuine Classic...This is how movies should be made.... It is a simple film, yet it has an everlasting message. Frank Darabont didn't need to put any kind of outlandish special effects to get us to love this film, the narration and the acting does that for him. Set aside a little over two hours tonight and watch it online at mymovees.com...Thoroughly recommended.

There was a line in a movie.Morgan said that joke about Irishman while they were outside the jail.
