"Everyone is your own God. If you give up yourself, who else will save you? Everyone is busy, some are busy living, some are busy dying. You are busy chasing fame and wealth , You who are busy with firewood, rice, oil and salt, stop and think for a second: Has your brain been institutionalized? Where is your God?" This is the wonderful dialogue I remember most in "Shawshank's Salvation." It speaks out the preciousness of hope, that a life without hope is gloomy, lifeless, and even meaningless. In my opinion, every place in the film is a classic. The protagonist Andy exudes the brilliance of human nature everywhere, and he seems to have a perfect personality. This movie about hopes, dreams, beliefs, and friendship brought me too much insight and shock. Looking back at the movie, the plot of the movie is still vivid in my mind. The film's story takes place in 1947. The banker Andy's wife had an extramarital affair. Andy tried to get drunk and killed them with a gun, but gave up after waking up. He was mistakenly accused of killing her and her lover, and Andy was sentenced to life imprisonment, which meant that he would spend the rest of his life in prison. As soon as he arrived in prison, he was bullied by the three sisters of Morges, but Andy did not endure silently, but resisted strongly, even though he failed and was beaten all over. Andy has been in prison for a long time without contact with anyone. A month later, the first thing Andy asked Reid to help him was a stone hammer. Reid said that it would take six hundred years to dig a tunnel with this stone hammer, and Andy used a small stone hammer to successfully dig the road to freedom in just twenty years. Among them, another important figure that has to be mentioned in the film is Reid. Reid was sentenced to life imprisonment for murder in 1927, and several paroles were unsuccessful. He has become a powerful figure in Shawshank prison. As long as he can afford to pay, he can get almost anything he wants: cigarettes, candy, alcohol, and even marijuana. Reid started paying attention to Andy the first time he saw him. From the beginning, he thought he was weak, and then he looked at him with admiration. Andy is a very capable person. Because of the banker, he is proficient in financial system knowledge and helped many prison guards deal with tax issues, which made him become more and more famous, and finally laundered money for the warden Norton. At the same time, Andy is actively planning the expansion of the library. In order to raise funds, Andy kept writing to the state legislature, and finally applied for a small sum of money for the prison library for the construction of the prison library. This is the result of his unremitting efforts. Andy is busy living in prison like this. At this moment, the arrival of a young prisoner broke his otherwise peaceful life. He told Andy the shocking news about the murder of his wife. But when Andy went to jail When the chief asked to report the situation in an effort to retry the case, he was flatly rejected and he was severely punished in solitary confinement for one month. In order to prevent Andy from being released, the warden did not hesitate to design and kill the young prisoner. Facing the cruel reality, Andy became very depressed, he recognized everything in front of him. He said to Rhett: "If one day, you can get parole, you must go somewhere to fulfill a wish for me. That's where I proposed to my wife and dig out a box under a big oak tree there. . There are things I gave you.” That night, with storms and thunder, Andy, who had been saved by his soul, successfully escaped from prison. Finally, Reid saw through the meaning of freedom and was granted parole. After he found a box of cash and a letter that Andy left him under the oak tree, he decided to violate the parole regulations and seek freedom. Then set off to Zihuataneou. Two old friends Andy and Reid finally meet again on a sunny beach in Mexico. The story is over here, and it is indeed endless emotion left to me, and my heart is very complicated. It is a huge film exposing the underworld of American justice. The film contains rich philosophy of life. I remember on the way to the dormitory after watching the movie, I asked my classmates if I knew the name of the movie was Shawshank’s Salvation? Some people shook their heads, some said that Shawshank was a character in the Bible, and another said that the name of the prison was Shawshank. For the understanding of Shawshank's salvation, everyone has their own different feelings. The so-called benevolent see benevolence, and the wise see wisdom. It’s not an exaggeration to watch this classic movie repeatedly. The next time you watch it, you may have a different and deeper feeling and understanding. For the first time I watched the film, I knew that my understanding was not deep and comprehensive enough. Here I will talk about the inspiration from the film. The film begins to tell that the protagonist Andy's wife had an extramarital affair, and the two were killed. When Andy was interrogated, he also admitted that he wanted to kill them by buying alcohol, but restrained himself when he was drunk. It can be seen from the film that Andy loves his wife very much, but why does his wife have an affair because he loves him so much regardless of the excellent banker? I don't think I can blindly blame his wife, Andy himself must have his shortcomings. He pays too much attention to his career, and rarely considers his family, ignoring his wife's feelings. So while in prison, Andy deeply reflected on his mistakes, and he was responsible for his wife's death. From here, I think that while each of us is busy with our careers, we should also care about our own family so that we can achieve a win-win situation in our career and emotional life. Librarian Brooks, this is the role that shocked me the most. Lao Bu spent most of his life in prison and was finally released on parole. He is free, but once he leaves the familiar environment and familiar people, he cannot feel his own value and cannot find his place. From being released from prison to committing suicide, Lao Bu is a tear-jerking segment. His confusion and extreme fear of life eventually caused him to end his life. Remember that there is a line in the film that reads "These walls are very interesting. When you first went to jail, you hated the high walls around you; slowly, you get used to living in them; eventually you will find that you have to rely on them to survive. "It is true. This is the so-called institutionalization, but even if the body and spirit are constrained, as long as there is hope for life, everything is beautiful. I can't help but deeply regret Lao Bu's death. If Rhett hadn't been guided by Andy, would he have committed suicide in the same room as Lao Bu? The death of Lao Bu gave Andy a great touch, it was Andy who gave Reid what he expected and gave him the motivation to survive. So think positively in everything, give yourself a goal, give yourself a hope of success, then you may understand the meaning of survival and the value of life. I think there is a sentence that is most suitable for use here. It is Yu Minhong's words that always encourage students to "find hope from despair, and life will be brilliant in the end". In contrast, Andy embodies another attitude. He finally escaped from Shark Castle Prison. What was it that realized his salvation? It is the desire for freedom in his heart, the existence of hope. There must be hope in life and never give up. Andy is a very intelligent and courageous banker, he seems to know everything, geology, chess, whistle, financial management, management, music, etc. It was this knowledge that saved him from physical labor in prison, secretly planned to escape from prison, prepared for his false identity in the future, and successfully escaped and lived a stable and free life. Why is Andy instead of other prisoners? Of course, courage is very important, but I think the important thing about me is because of his knowledge. The so-called knowledge changes destiny, Andy gained freedom with his rich knowledge. Looking back at the film, Andy used the name of money laundering to make plans for his identity and life after he escaped from prison. His knowledge was fully used in prison and on the way to escape. As a student, I feel the importance of knowledge even more, so we must cherish the learning opportunities in front of us and use all opportunities to learn, not only to learn our own professional knowledge, but also to learn other knowledge to enrich ourselves. No one knows one day, it was such a small piece of knowledge that changed our destiny and made ourselves. One thing that touched me in the film was Andy's perseverance and ideals. Andy kept writing to the State Assembly for the expansion of the library, which lasted for several years. This is something that ordinary people can hardly do or even think of, but Andy is so persistent, and finally got a satisfactory result. What is even more shocking is that for the past twenty years, Andy has been digging holes with that small stone hammer every day, and he has been preparing for his escape all the time. This little stone hammer is something that Reid said could not be completed in 600 years, but Andy took only 20 years to see the tunnel to the road to freedom in the film, admiring it. pregnancy. It was Andy's persistent spirit that saved himself and moved thousands of people. Looking back at the entire film, Shawshank is actually just a fable. If you think about it carefully, it exists in our real lives. Each of us is consciously or unconsciously playing a role in Shawshank. For example, our university is a Shawshank castle to some extent. When we leave this castle, most of us are destined to be institutionalized. Even when we enter society, the erosion of people by the system does not stop. However, these are entirely our own choices, whether to choose hope or despair, it exists entirely in our hearts. Here I want to send a well-known Li Kaifu quote that I like very much, "Have the courage to change what can be changed, have the mind to accept the unchangeable, and have the wisdom to distinguish the difference between the two." In life, each of us must always maintain a positive and optimistic attitude, there is nothing that cannot be overcome, believe that the future is beautiful, and believe that hope will always exist.
