“The Shawshank Experience: Tracking the History of the World’s Favorite Movie is an easy read, full of interesting anecdotes and trivia about the film, and it’s an excellent research tool for anyone doing Stephen King studies, genre film studies, audience reception, fan studies, and academic approaches to the American penal system as it intersects with its presentation in films.” (Lynda Haas, The Journal of the Fantastic in the Art, Vol. 30 (2), 2020)
