American classic films are full of a spirit of pursuing freedom, and "Papillon" is no exception, but he shows it more vividly. From the beginning of the plot, the liberty and incompatibility between Bobby and his girlfriend show freedom and individuality; as the whole plot progresses, escape again and again, insist again and again, plan again and again... full of It is the taste of freedom; the leap is to push the spirit of freedom to the top. "Freedom" has always been a state of life and spiritual realm pursued by human beings. I have always liked to watch movies adapted from real events. It is more like an inspirational drama and a teaching material for scenario reproduction. It gives people a more shocking feeling and inspiration, which can stimulate your deeper thinking and feel the deepest freedom. From various films of resistance and struggle represented by "Braveheart" to various films of prison escape represented by "Papillon", "freedom" is expressed in various forms. Some die for freedom, some live for freedom, no matter life or death, freedom is always the core value, which is also the core value under the Western capitalist system. In order to fully understand freedom, it must be viewed in the context of the social system, social environment, and social ethics in which it exists. The main influencing factors are: the protection of personal privacy by the law, the knowledge of social law enforcement officers on personal information, citizens' awareness of personal protection, the public's views on personal behavior, etc. Interested students can learn more about it.

Papillon quotes

  • Warden Barrot: Put all hope out of your mind. And masturbate as little as possible, it drains the strength!

  • Dega: Well, it now seems quite possible that until we get to a decent jail with bribeable guards, I may stand in some need of... rather close physical protection.

    Papillon: That depends on how long you want to live.

    Dega: For a long time.

    Papillon: Then you got a problem.

    Dega: Well, I presume that you have some, uh, goals, some particular need that outrates all the others. I mean, if so... may I aslk what it is?

    Papillon: Money!

    Dega: For what?

    Papillon: Escape.

    Dega: Very good. You keep me alive until we land in Guiana, and I'll underwrite any escape you care to arrange.

    Papillon: Escape for me, not for us!

    Dega: Oh, of course. I, I, I...

    [laughs]

    Dega: . I have no intention, uh, of even attempting to escape - ever!

    Papillon: Done!
