The Shawshank RedemptionThis work,How many viewers have seen it?
The film was released in:1994 year, kind of a filmVery old**, but the audience who has seen it, without exception, all think that it is"Classic. ”
Released in the nineties,The Shawshank RedemptionIn one fell swoop$58.3 millionThe box office, which is very powerful.
So, what is "unique" about the movie, and why did it win such a high box office? Let's move on.
At the beginning of the film, everyone was directly confused, this is a gun and a drink, how can the film give the audience a kind of"Crime".Can this kind of ** be educational?
At the beginning, it was a little foggy, and then the actor appeared"Tribunal".Above, the judge asked the male protagonist Duflan"Please describe the argument you had with your wife that night." ”
Oh, my God? What's the situation, it's guns, it's alcohol, and then he shows up in the courtroom, and the judge asks about him and his wife.
Could it be said? Make a bold guess, the male protagonist Dufran killed his wife? But why did he do it? Later, he himself gave the answer: She said she wasn't afraid I know, she hated sneaking.
Seeing this, almost everyone understands what this Dufren said"Wife"., cuckolded him, and he was not afraid that the male protagonist would know, and even said that he didn't like to be sneaky.
Is this cuckold so rampant? Don't shy away from it at all, which big man can stand this？However, his wife's next words were even more fierce and wanted to divorce him.
This incident seems very incredible to others, but the top of the film gives the movie's "".Background: The famous "divorce city" in the United States, you only need to live in the city for three months to get a divorce.
Soldiers can not be killed, the matter of cuckolding is humiliating enough, and his wife is still thinking about divorce, so Dufran directly put down the "cruel words".:Disagree.
From the judge's mouth, we know that Duflan said not only this sentence, but also a more ruthless sentence"You don't want to go to Renault alive." ”
And his neighbor confirmed that Dufren had said this.
After the husband and wife quarreled, the wife had to pack up and go with him"Lover".Live, that night, the more Duflan thought about it, the more angry he became, drank wine and brought a gun, whether he killed his wife and two people, in the filmNo "yes" was givenAnswer.
But his wife was really killed, and Duflan could not escape the blame, and went to court for intentional homicide, and the court finally sentenced Duflan to death"Twice" life imprisonmentAnd just like that, Duflan went into a dark prison, openEnlightened the real "copy" of this film. ”
Before entering prison, Duflan was a vice president at the Bank of Portland, and it can be said about his future"A piece of light"., who would have thought that this kind of thing happened halfway and was imprisoned for the crime of killing his wife and lover.
And in this place called"Shawshank".In the prison, there was also a man who was sentenced to "life imprisonment", his name"Rhett"., in this prison,He can get a lot of what you want.
On the first day of Duflan in prison, Red pressed on Duflan's body"Ten cigarettes",He thinks Duflan will be one of those prisoners"The most rookie".But what happened later made Red completely change his opinion.
In Red's eyes, Duflan is a wealthy family with a good face, who has plummeted from that status to a prisoner in prison, and he can't stand this change in statusHe bet that Duflan was the first to "cry out."
Who would have thought that after the night passed, Dufran didn't say a word, because in his heart, there was always a belief that supported him, that is, he would not give up hope even in a desperate situation.
As a man of the day in prison, Duflan soon learned of Red's existenceSo on the first day of prison, Duflan approached him and wanted to buy a "stone hammer" to use for "escape".
And just like that, it unfolded between the two"Cooperation",And Rhett was also the first to know that Duflan wanted to "break from prison".
When the hammer was held in Red's hand, he was revealed"Taunt".The smile, because of such a small hammer, want to use it to "jailbreak" to dig tunnels, it's simply it"Foolish dreams. ”
During his first two years in prison, Duflan suffered all kinds of humiliation, but he still didn't give up, and he and Red became friends.
There was a time when someone in prison needed to go out to work, like that"Tolerance".There is no pay, but he can get people in prison out, which is an opportunity that many people want.
So Rhett used a pack of cigarettes per person to get all his friends out, and just like that, one day in May, everyone was working outdoors contentedly, and they realized what they hadn't seen for a long time"Fresh air. ”
On the way to work, Duflan overheard a conversation between the warden and his colleagues, and from his words, Duflan knew that the warden had a problem with "taxes", which happened to be his field, because before entering the prison, Duflan was the vice president of the bank.
After some description by Duflan, he was able to help the warden solve his problemAnd there is no charge and it is legal and compliant, with the condition that all friends in Dufland are invited to have three beers each.
This requirement was not a problem for the warden, but it was very rare for Duflan and his fellow inmates.
So, thanks to Duflan's efforts, he and his fellow inmates drank "ice-cold" fresh beer on this day in May, something many in prison could only dream of.
But for the beer that the prison warden invited everyone to drink, Duflan did not move a bottle, because he had already quit drinking.
Maybe in the eyes of some people, Duflan's move was to slap the prison warden's ass, but everyone was wrong, in Red's eyes, Duflan just wanted it"Revisiting Freedom",Even if it's just for a moment, he'll be veryTreasure.
Never giving up hope in a desperate situation is a firm belief in Dufla's heart!
With his professional knowledge, Duflan was appreciated by the prison wardenOnce, when the prison was making a movie for the prisoners, the cellmate who had humiliated him came to trouble him again.
This time they beat Duflan half to death and lay directly in the prison infirmary for a month, and the prisoner who beat him was locked up for seven days, and when he came out, the warden found himHe couldn't take care of himself by beating him directly, and no one dared to bully Duflan since then.
In prison, in addition to the original knowledge of taxation, Duflan saidHe also read a variety of books and grew his skills.
After helping the warden with his taxes last time, Duflan's reputation spread, so the warden transferred him out of the laundry room and let him work in the library.
The work of the library is nothing compared to the laundry"Heaven and earth".In the library, Duflan doesn't have to do anything, and every day is very leisurely.
Gradually, some of the jails began to come to Duflan ".Manage your moneyHis reputation became louder and louder, and later even the biggest official in the prison, the "warden", came to him for help, and Dufran could be said to be confused"Like a fish in water. ”
After Rhett went to prison from Duflan, he often helped and took care of him, and the two were very good friends, so every tax time, Duflan was very busy here, and he would ask for instructions from aboveLet Rhett help him, it was their most relaxed moment.
Duflan had been trying to "expand" the prison's library, but the warden didn't want to allocate money here, so he had to write to his superiors asking for a little money for the prison.
After six years of persistence, Duflan wrote a letter a week, and it went on like this, and finally got the above appropriation, although the money was not much, but for Duflan, it wasIt is a thing of unique significance, which shows that he is one step closer to "freedom".
Maybe it's a little "carried away", after getting the above appropriation, Duflan openly put up ** in the warden's office, and even the warden chose to come."Lock the door. ”
Duflan was given a short period of "freedom", but he also paid the price for his actions and was locked up for two weeks.
However, with the efforts of Duflan,This "Shawshank Prison" **appeared**, a comfortable library, and the "essence" of the entire prison seemed to have changed.
For decades, Dufland dug up the "door" to the outside world, and his long-awaited "freedom" was about to be shown in front of Duflan, and the moment he fell into the water, he was completely "crazy", which was the long-lost "freedom". ”
When he first learned that his wife was cheating, Duflan thought about killing the two of them, but his sanity eventually prevailed over anger, and unfortunately, his wife and lover were killed by criminals that nightThis crime also fell on Duflan.
After 19 years in prison, Dufland was finally freed.
Actually, in my opinion, the filmThe Shawshank Redemption, in fact, it was not from prison that he "escaped" and regained his freedom, just like the "old cloth" in the play, he stayed in prison for 50 years, and after coming out, not only did he not "regain his freedom", but he fell behindThe fate of "suicide".
When the bird in his arms flew away,"Lao Bu" has no spiritual sustenance, which is exactly the interpretation of the film, from prison ** is not "to regain freedom." ”
Instead, stay in prison, yes"Salvation. ”
Sometimes I also think that it would be nice if the ending of this ** was not so "sad".
Although that may be more reflective of the greatness of human nature, it is also too sad.
See in despair"Hope",This hope is by no means simple"Escape",Maybe we'd rather see that happen, but that's it"Reality. ”
"Salvation. It's a spiritual salvation, not a reality"Salvation. ”
It's like that blue sea, which was originally where we were born!
