How many Oscars did the film "The Shawshank Redemption" win?

"The Shawshank Redemption", a 1994 American prison drama film, was written and directed by Frank Darabont, based on the 1982 Stephen King novella "Rita Hayworth and Shawshank Redemption". It's a film that tells the story of banker Andy Dufresne (Tim Robbins), who is sentenced to life in prison at Shawshank State Penitentiary for the murders of his wife and her lover, despite his claims of innocence. Over a period of two decades, Andy befriends a fellow prisoner, contraband smuggler Ellis "Red" Redding (Morgan Freeman). Andy also becomes instrumental in a money laundering operation led by the prison warden Samuel Norton (Bob Gunton). William Sadler, Clancy Brown, Gil Bellows, and James Whitmore appear in major supporting roles.

This film received critical acclaim upon its release—particularly for its story, the performances of Robbins and Freeman, Newman's score, Darabont's direction and screenplay and Roger Deakins' cinematography. Initially, at the big box-office, it was a disappointment, earning only $16 million during its initial theatrical run. With a theatrical re-release and new international screenings, the film increased its box-office gross to $73.3 million after costing $25 million to make.

It's also a film that received seven Oscar nominations including Best Picture, Best Actor (Freeman), Best Adapted Screenplay, Best Cinematography, Best Film Editing, Best Sound, and Best Original Score (Newman, his first Oscar nomination). It did not win in any category.
