What moved me was a silent farewell to life and death

Some feelings about the film that was paid tribute to "Xiao Shenke":

1. The jailbreak method in the film looks a bit rough and not very credible. But the film is basically loyal to historical facts, there are reasons to guard against thieves.

2. The painter was deprived of the right to paint, the warden was tyrannical, and the painter chopped his fingers angrily and was shocked. The struggle on the spiritual level, the rebellion on the will, began from this point.

3. I like the conversation between Inliss and Morris, the black librarian before prison break, because of the small change in title, everyone knows the future well, a silent separation of life and death, and huge emotional fluctuations are suppressed. In a few succinct dialogues.

Inliss sent a book, when parting: "See you later, man"

"Goodbye, boy." Morris focused on spitting out "boy", a more intimate address, implying that this was the last time we met. Inlis understood, and the music rang. Morris nodded slightly. Tears burst into Inlis' eyes. Morris reached out and the two shook hands.

Inliss: "So long, boy." Emphasize "boy" and walk away.

4. Why did Buzz fail to make it? He didn't explain clearly. He only clicked one sentence before, and his progress was slightly delayed. It was agreed to escape on Tuesday night, and the warden asked to change rooms early on Tuesday, which seemed contradictory. But later, when homosexuality came to the threat, it might make the escape plan a day earlier.

5. A rich man who raises a mouse, and a black leader sitting high on the top of the steps, all have their own personalities.

6. The chrysanthemum symbolizes hope. The warden’s pursuit of the chrysanthemum was unsuccessful. He found the chrysanthemum on the bank, declared the three people dead, and threw the chrysanthemum into the water.
