The director is the male lead of the uncrowned king "Shawshank's Redemption", and Sean Penn and Susan Saraden play the male and female lead. Such casts and the name "Death Row" are worth watching.
What Sean Pan looks like and acting as a gangster is also very riff, and has its own characteristics. This role has a lot of room to play, with levels of ignorance in the early stage, simple and rude rebellion, composure and calmness in the later stage, and finally painful awakening. The role of the nun is relatively introverted, and her emotions and anger should not be overly expressive. She relies solely on changes in her eyes and her facial expressions are more restrained. Under pressure to help a rapist on death row, there are both inner suffering and external confrontation. Susan's interpretation is well completed, and it feels a bit like the role of "The Silent Lamb". In the jail, she scolded Matthew at the moment of dying when he was dying, and the two played against each other quite sparkly.
It cannot be simply considered that it was the nun who redeemed the death row, so that he finally confessed his guilt and accepted the death sentence with peace of mind. It was mutual. The nun herself also experienced a spiritual cleansing. The farewell to my mother and the guilt for the victim’s family are quite heavy. The parent of the victim said that after the child was killed, the couple's family became fragmented, heartbreaking and helpless. The director's addition of this part of the content is much smarter than the direct accusation, and the silent accusation is very contagious.
From the perspective of drama, this movie is worth watching, and there is no doubt that it won. From the perspective of social stability, it is too tragic to dislike this kind of incident, so let it only remain in film creation.
