Shawshank Redemption, Self Redemption

When I was in high school, the teacher let go of this movie. At that time, I just watched it casually and then forgot about it. It seemed that I was watching, um, some distant stories. At that time, I really couldn’t understand one or two. Once again, I feel that it is still a bit inadequate to comment on this movie recently. The smart male protagonist is quite able to eat in the prison relying on his talent and knowledge, and quietly dug a secret way to escape from the prison, and started a new life according to the agreement. The impressive scene is because the old man who had been in the prison for a long time hanged himself soon after he got out of the prison. He lived a life without distinction year after year in the prison, but outside the prison really turned upside down. The old man who walked out of the prison was helpless and had no job, so he chose to leave this world. . Is this world too cruel? Or is the old man not brave enough? I think it is probably the difference between the beliefs that support them to continue to work hard to live.

The Shawshank Redemption quotes

  • Warden Samuel Norton: [as Mozart music is playing on the phonograph, the Warden comes to bang on the door] Open the door. Open it up! Dufresne, open this door! Turn that off!

    [Andy acts like he is going to do as he says]

    Warden Samuel Norton: I am warning you Dufresne, TURN THAT OFF!

    [Andy turns up the volume instead, so Hadley comes to the door]

    Captain Hadley: Dufresne...

    [taps on the door with the club]

    Captain Hadley: ... come on down.

    [Andy does nothing, so Hadley smashes the screen on the door, unlocks it, and comes in the room]

    Red: [narrating] Andy got two weeks in the hole for that little stunt.

    Captain Hadley: [turns off the phonograph] On your feet.

  • Red: [Narrating] There must be a con like me in every prison in America. I'm the guy who can get if for you; cigarettes, a bag of reefer, if that's your thing, a bottle of brandy to celebrate your kid's high school graduation, damn near anything within reason. Yes sir, I'm a regular Sears and Roebuck.
