The Shawshank Redemption is to prison as Pretty Woman is to prostitution. (lemmy.dbzer0.com)

Tell me why I'm wrong, and if not, repudiate this maudlin, caricatured, two-dimensional, simplistic, cliched, sappy, melodramatic, piece of cinematic legend.

I've never seen it called the best film of all time?

And I'm a woman.. And most women I know really like this film.

I've decided you're 14.

So many ways to be wrong.

BTW, what do you think Lemmy's demographic is? Mostly women you'd say? Even, say, near 50%-50% male/female (self identified)? I mean, YOU'RE here. So obviously it isn't a desert. Not that I said Shawshank was. But I guess you think that if you are included it can't be a mostly male experience.

Decide what you like, here is an actual source of fact if you care, which I'm sure you don't.

Your link disproves your own point.

Go get ready for school.
