“Demolition Man”) with their finan
cial wiles.
The plot is much more intricate,
but there are surprises that must not
be given away. Andy’s outstanding
suffering and eventual triunmh are
the centerpieces of the film, demon
strating the resiliency of hope even
in the face of utmost despair.
The cinematography of the film is
exceptional. The darkness of the
prison and its inmates permeates the
screen, and the freedom demonstrated
by the aerial shots contrasts well with
the crowded pen.
The array of actors is impressive.
But the performances they give much
outweighs any expectations. The
ironic evil of the guards and warden
is demonstrated well by Brown and
Gunton. Character actor Brown was
made for the part of the unforgiving
guard captain. And Norton captures
perfectly the essence of the greedy,
power-monger warden.
Freeman is spectacular as Red.
Originally intended to be a red
headed Irishman, the character for
tunately was changed, allowing
Freeman's captivating persona to pro
vide the essential narration of the
film.
Robbins is fantastic. His portrayal

of the introverted Andy is, like the
character himself, almost beyond
words. Robbins exemplifies beauti
fully the inner strength required to
keep the secrets that Andy holds.
The film is often very dark and
brutal. Some of the things that hap
pen to various inmates are not pleas
ant to behold. But the fact that they
arc done realistically adds to the glo
rious redemption at the end of the
movie.
“The Shawshank Redemption” is
not just a film adaptation of a King
story. It is a recapturing of the
author's intentions and presenting
them in a whole new medium. And
it is a must-see.

Nightmare
Continued from Page 9
Anyway. Freddy is after Heather’s
(fictional) son Dylan (Miko Hughes,
“Kindergarten Cop”), who has begun
talking like Freddy and walking
around with knives taped to his fin
gers
Naturally, when Heather tells
people that Freddy is after her. they
look at her like she has lobsters crawl
ing out of her ears, so she has to take
care of things herself.
If this is Heather playing herself,
she must not have many friends. Her
characterization is nothing past her
role of Nancy. Langenkamp’s char
acter from the first “Elm Street” film.
Robert Englund is back, too. This
time around, he’s pulling double-duty
as himself and as Krueger. He pulls
ofT playing himself rather well, and,
of course, horror fans can’t get
enough of Krueger.
Unfortunately, it takes more than
an hour to sec Freddy, and it is a
VERY long hour to get there.
Freddy has a new look for “New
Nightmare.” To become more of a GQ
demon, Freddy adds a trench coat and
changes the colors of his sweater to
make his look more menacing.
Plus, the glove has changed. It has
gone beyond being just a leather glove

Nightmare”

Director Wes Craven
Grade: D
Five Words: Freddy attacks the
real world
with razor blades and seems even
more hideous.
Still, the movie lacks intensity.
Craven tried to avoid a great deal of
gore for this film and focus more on
suspense. One problem: there is no
suspense.
If Freddy began haunting people
other than Heather, that would have
helped. Imagine the nightmares
Englund would have — or have had
— about Freddy!
Nevertheless, the movie is a waste
of time, even for horror film buffs.
It would be better to watch a
Sondra Locke retrospective than en
during this cinematic burp.

The Bread and Bock Fair cor
responds with an opening exhibit
“Biblio/Graphics’’ that emphasizes
books as art. Paper said the exhibit
provided the opportunity for the
gallery to collaborate with literary
organizations.
The fair will also feature a raffle
for a bread machine and an eight
category bread-making contest.
Paper said the fair would also
satisfy the appetites of students
who miss homemade foods.
