Answer:   The Shawshank Redemption In the events leading up to this scene, young banker Andrew Dufresne (Tim Robbins) is convicted of the murder of his wife and is sent to Shawshank Prison (but is later seen to be innocent). In this scene, when Andy first arrives at the prison, he approaches a group of prisoners and introduces himself to Ellis Boyd “Red” Redding (Morgan Freeman). Red recognizes his name and calls him the “wife-killin’ banker.” Andy protests that he didn’t do it and Red responds with line one. Prisoner Heywood (William Sadler) confirms Red’s evaluation with line two. In the 1995 Academy Awards, “The Shawshank Redemption” was nominated in seven categories, including Best Picture (but lost to “Forrest Gump”).

This movie was adapted from Stephen King’s short story titled “Rita Hayworth and Shawshank Redemption.”
