1. The Shawshank Redemption
Although it’s an award-winning film, its initial release made just $28 million at the box office. The combination of a “confusing title”, a lengthy runtime, and it being a Stephen King story that wasn’t a horror most likely led to it flopping. Once it began airing frequently on TNT, more and more people were exposed to it and it became an all-time classic as well as the highest-rated movie on IMDb.

If you haven't seen this give it a shot.
I fell across it (On T.V) and it's hilarious.
Side note: These two are married (and have been) for a very long time.
Good chemistry.

Most of these movies are downright excellent. The one that younger people need to see is "PCU." It's basically Gen X's answer to the Baby Boomer's "Animal House," but with virtually all the cringy mewling social complaints of today's Hardcore leftists college kids.

If this list were longer, “Raising Arizona” would have to be on it. The best Coen Brothers movie ever.

#14 I found it at Movie Gallery back in the day, and tossed it in with a bunch of funny movies, it blew the rest out of water. I will never turn down a watch of it, it hold up to the test of time and is too prophetic for our own good.

#8 I had zero interest, and the commercials only annoyed me, but I admit the "red stapler" and "Mmmmmm kay" got me.
