<h1>Hope is a good thing, maybe the best of things, and no good thing ever dies.——The Shawshank Redemption
</h1>
The author was bored during the eleventh holiday, so he revisited Shawshank's redemption, and once again marveled at the protagonist's tenacious vitality and willpower while also thinking. Why are so many prison break movies, how is it that Shawshank's redemption has always been high, and why can this movie be famous in history?
The Shawshank Redemption
I originally thought that there were not many film and television dramas on the theme of prison escape, so I simply checked the Internet, and then found that I was wrong, the original prison escape theme of film and television dramas have been very popular since the last century, for example, "Victory Escape", "Shark Island Escape", "Blood Splash Tiger Head Gate", "Prison Beast", "New York Escape", "Golden Cicada Shell" ,,,, too much. Here I will only say that I have seen a few, and the others have not seen it and we have no right to speak. They are Chow Yun-fat's prison storm, Mi Shuai's prison escape, Stallone's golden cicada shelling, and the core of this article, Shawshank's redemption.

In fact, the American drama "Prison Break" is quite a milestone, it is the first American drama to knock on the door of the Chinese market, before this drama, I believe that most of our cognition of American dramas generally stayed in the "Friends" stage. (Of course, this is also an extremely wonderful drama, I have seen it no less than 5 times, and many people use it as a textbook for practicing spoken English).) The escape from prison came out, and we were shocked, how people's minds can be so meticulous. A friend of mine told me that only Lao Mei can make such a drama. Yes, this drama really feels like it is blood boiling and passionate. The problem is that jailbreaking is just about escaping. It doesn't have much practical significance for us, does it reflect the corruption of American politics? be. But what does this have to do with us? The same is true of Stallone's Golden Cicada, which only teaches us the art of escaping from prison, which most of us don't use. I can't think of anything else. Then there is the prison storm of Fa Ge, first of all, Fa Ge's acting skills we have nothing to say, Fa Ge is Fa Ge. As for what this movie teaches us, never try to commit a crime, or you will die a miserable death.

Prison storm
Shawshank Redemption, the name is so well coined, it's really a story of hope, a story of redemption, and it's not just the protagonist Andy himself who redeems him, he also redeems a lot of people, including Red, including his cellmates, including us. In the movie, after Andy's successful escape, another paragraph is used to introduce Red's experience after he was released from prison, describing Andy asking him to do this and that. I've been wondering what's necessary about this? It wasn't until I watched it again yesterday that I realized that it was Andy's way of getting Red to hope for life again, and simply, to keep the institutional red alive. In prison, he helped his fellow prisoners study, helped them obtain various certificates, and single-handedly contributed to the establishment of the library, so that the muddy souls of criminals could be redeemed in beautiful music and in profound books. These are the things that give institutionalized them renewed hope in their lives.
As for us, why we have been obsessed with this movie, because we feel it, we seem to see ourselves in the dark. The prisoners in the prison seem to be the epitome of us, either as if, or of ourselves. Most of us live an institutionalized life, in the words of the movie, busy living, busy dying. We long for a life that remains unchanged, but we can't do it. Andy taught us how to officially pick up hope in life and how to redeem ourselves.
