Am not a lad, but will try to answer. Shawshank Redemption is an intense film, not light viewing, certainly not uplifting, but well done. Liked it but not a feel good movie.

The others? Don't know.

Might want to just read a book?

Green mile - Excellent film - of course done by the same person who wrote Shawshank - love both of em

Id also, if youve not seen it - try sleepers. Another prisony type film but a bit more distrubing when you see what its all about

I saw a film a couple of nights ago, Death Wish 3 or something. Man, that kicked ass.

Oh yeah, Kiss of The Dragon's great. See if you can spot the "Boss 1, Fight!" "Boss 2, Fight!" moments ;)

Oh my word, someone recommended 'Naked Lunch' that must be one of the weirdest films ever.
For some reason I end up thinking about 'The Cook, the theif, his wife and her lover.
