. There are three scenes in the film: One is like this. On a bright spring morning, after the prisoners finished their work, they sat idle on the roof and drank leisurely. Andy can be said to be a cold beer in exchange for his life, enjoying the warm and leisurely sunshine, it is as if he is on the roof of his own home, enjoying the hard-won freedom?? In
another scene, turn on the music in Andy Later, Mozart’s music sounded in the prison, and the high-pitched and beautiful voice reverberated over the prison. Everyone, including prisoners and guards, at that moment turned to the direction of the music, listening quietly, forgetting the shackles of the high wall? ?
There is another scene where Andy finally built the best prison library in England at the time through his unremitting efforts. Prisoners can get free air outside the prison in the library like free people.??
Andy All this is done: risking his life to only fight for a free drinking opportunity for his companions; rather offending the warden and the extremely terrifying prison guard, just for the prisoners to feel the sense of freedom in the music; ten After writing letters over the years, a decent library was finally built. In Andy's view, all this is done is just for two words, that is "freedom". One cannot lose freedom while alive. Even in prison, one should try his best to fight for freedom for himself, thinking that in his view, one lives to fight for his freedom.
The film has two restrictions on freedom: one is prison; the other is institutionalized; prison restricts freedom from the physical and physical aspects; and institutionalization restricts freedom from the soul and spirit. The film emphasizes the institutionalization of spiritual restrictions on freedom.
There is a passage from Reid in the film: "fist you hate them ,then ,you get used to it ,enough time passes?you get so ,you depended on them, that is institutionalized. (At first, you hate it, then gradually Get accustomed to it, and after enough time, you start to follow it. This is institutionalization.” “Institutionalize” translates to: institutionalize and make the same. From this explanation, it can be abstracted into two words, which is "assimilation." For an individual, the process of institutionalization is the process of assimilation, which is the process of assimilation by most of the thoughts of an individual in a group or society. When the thoughts of this group or society are not a diversified space, the process of assimilation becomes more and more severe. The film has been trying to show us a world (prison) that is strongly institutionalized (assimilated). Wardens, prison guards, and various systems in prisons have all become tools for such institutionalization (assimilation).
Of course, each of us does not live in prison, so we can't feel the pain of physical restriction of freedom at all, but this does not mean that your soul is spiritually free. Everyone is unconsciously affected by institutionalization (assimilation), and no one can escape the fate of institutionalization (assimilation). As long as you ask yourself now: Am I still not what I imagined before? Am I still myself? Maybe you can feel it. Freedom is a seed buried in our hearts, we need to water it with the spring of our thoughts from time to time. In order to save the prisoners, Andy in the film won the sunshine of freedom for them more than once. And what about us? Who will save ourselves? I think, besides ourselves, who else will there be? ! <2> Hope is the flower that blooms in dreams
. No one can obtain the freedom of one's ideals. But as long as we have hope in our hearts, we will have the courage to live on.
The film has three characters who are compared with each other:
One is Lao Bu: Lao Bu, a librarian who has lived in prison for most of his life, finally gained freedom, but after he was released from prison, he lived in panic all day long. Finally, in extreme depression and melancholy, he quickly understood Own life.
One is Reid: After he was released from prison, Reid also faced almost the same mood as Lao Bu, but there was still more or less hope in his heart-once promised a promise from Andy, and finally survived.
The other is Andy. After his unremitting efforts, he drilled a 500-yard sewage pipe and finally gained freedom. In the downpour, I breathed the free air heartily and opened my arms happily??
These three scenes are actually asking us: Why are we all free, but why are three people so big? What's the difference?
This is because of "hope". In Andy's heart, he has never given up his hope for freedom, and he has been working hard for his own hope-every night he uses that little hammer to dig a wall that Ruide thinks he will not be able to dig through for hundreds of years. For Reid and Lao Bu, they have long given up hope, thinking that in their view, hope can only make themselves more painful, and even believe that hope is the source of pain.
In the film Andy made a good interpretation of hope: "forget that there are? Place? in the world that are not made out of stone, there is something? Inside? That they can not get to? That is hope (Don’t forget Now, this world penetrates all things that are high walls, it is deep in our hearts, they can’t reach, and they can’t reach them, that’s hope). Indeed, just like what Andy said, the high walls of prisons can Something that restricts our physical freedom, even institutionalization, can restrict our spiritual freedom, but only hope cannot be given up. A life without hope is gloomy, lifeless, and even meaningless .
hope is the dream would open flowers, with dreams, with hope, to a better tomorrow.
There are many seemingly absurd scenes in the film: Lao Bu, the librarian in the prison, finally gained freedom but committed suicide; the black Reid wanted to be released on bail several times, but always failed. The last time, when he was completely lost hope, but released on bail success; old cloth flying their adoption of a bird with trembling hands, the birds return to the natural, acquired freedom, the old cloth themselves extremely reluctant to go back to the community ??
Videos Try to use these seemingly absurd scenes to ask us: What is freedom in the true sense, what is hope, and what is the relationship between hope and freedom??
What is freedom? Human freedom is different from animals. When a bird returns to nature, it gains freedom; what about humans? Human freedom is definitely different from animals. Humans are thinking animals, and human freedom is a product of thought.
The film tells us that freedom is based on hope. You have no hope, and without the courage to pursue hope, you have no freedom in the true sense. Strictly speaking, it is difficult to achieve the freedom in your ideals. But this does not mean that we must give up the struggle for freedom, and the process of this struggle is a person's life. We place this desire for ideal freedom on our own hope, so freedom and hope are linked together. In my opinion, the film seems to tell us this theme.
<4> The ending of the perfect combination of freedom and hope. The ending of the
film is like this: the blue sky is the vast blue sea, and the beach is a small boat. Two old friends finally meet on the sunny seashore, and they are very close to each other. Smiling at each other happily??
This ending has a very profound meaning. The blue sky and the vast blue sea symbolize the ideal freedom; while the small boat and the smiles of two old friends symbolize the bright hope for the future. The reason why this kind of ending can move people's hearts is because it perfectly blends freedom and hope, and presents it to us together.
