The Shawshank Redemption

  The movie told a story that Andy is a young and successful banker whose life changes drastically when he is wrongly convicted and sentenced to life imprisonment at Shawshank prison for the  of his wife and her lover. Fortunately Andy befriends some of the other inmates, in particular a character named Red who can deliver contraband of almost any type into Shawshank Prison, and he finds ways to live out life with relative ease as one can in the prison. Set in the 1940's, the film shows how Andy, with the help of his friend Red, turns out to be a most unconventional prisoner and escapes from the prison.
    Review: The Shawshank Redemption is a movie about the life in prison and it’s also an impressive story about prison break. There is no doubt that it’s a very wonderful and brilliant movie. In my opinion, the redemption in this movie includes the physical and spiritual redemption. Being in prison for 20 years, Andy finally crawls to freedom through 500 yards of shit-smelling foulness. Hope, wisdom and perseverance are the indispensible and important factor contributing to his successful physical redemption. As to his spiritual redemption, Andy expands the library, encourages other inmates to learn knowledge, and evoke their hopes. All he does, to some extent, make him feel less guilty and help him to purify his spirit and soul. He blames himself for his wife’s death, and asks Red to the oak tree where witnesses his love with his wife, which indeed helps Andy to get out of the shadow. When Andy and Red hug together joyfully, it’s the time that I think Andy’s physical and spiritual freedom really reunite. Redemption is not easy, and freedom of body and soul is precious. However, Andy successfully redeemed himself both physically and spiritually. It is really a great movie.
