Even if you are in a cage, you still have a good yearning

I have always liked the sentence: dreams are still necessary, what if hell? Yes, no matter what, you must have this beautiful yearning. If you don't even have this, then the hope of life will also be cremated. What is the meaning of such a life!

No abnormality was found in the first half of the film. Until the end, it suddenly dawned on me that it turned out that it had never been the case. Even though he has been yearning for the outside world, the male protagonist has been working hard to transform his life in prison. Shawshank’s redemption is not only about him and that black friend. His existence has given many people strength. It is indeed a good film that is loved by many people. I really admire the male protagonist. His spirit is worthy of us. Personal learning, the spread of this power is also very good in today's real world. This is probably also a particularly successful film. It can affect many people. It’s really great.

The Shawshank Redemption quotes

  • [after Brooks held a knife to Heywood's throat]

    Andy Dufresne: I just don't understand what happened in there.

    Heywood: Old man's crazy as a rat in a tin shithouse, is what.

    Red: Oh Heywood, that's enough out of you!

    Ernie: I heard he had you shittin' in your pants!

    Heywood: Fuck you!

    Red: Would you knock it off? Brooks ain't no bug. He's just... just institutionalized.

    Heywood: Institutionalized, my ass.

    Red: The man's been in here fifty years, Heywood. Fifty years! This is all he knows. In here, he's an important man. He's an educated man. Outside, he's nothin'! Just a used up con with arthritis in both hands.

  • Red: [narrating, referring to the warden committing suicide] I'd like to think that the last thing that went through his head, other than that bullet, was to wonder how the hell Andy Dufresne ever got the best of him.
