For new prisoners, the first night in prison is undoubtedly the most difficult.
The moment the prison door was closed, the prisoners knew that everything was not a joke. In a blink of an eye, their entire life was ruined, leaving only endless regrets.
Many people will collapse on the first night, or even cry.
So, whenever a new prisoner came, Rhett and a few inmates would bet on who would be the first to collapse on the first night?
Gambling is money or cigarettes.
This is the only issue that the old inmates care about.
This time is no exception.
Reid thinks that young Andy, who is weak and looks rich, will be the first person to collapse.
He bet Andy.
As a result, Reid lost, he lost two packs of cigarettes. The first person to collapse and cry was a fat man.
Throughout the night, Andy remained silent, without saying a word.
When seeing this, the audience in the theater felt strange emotions for the first time.
Andy is an excellent banker, he was a vice president of a bank at a young age, and his future is bright.
However, his wife betrayed him and caused him to be wronged and imprisoned and sentenced to life imprisonment. A bright future collapsed instantly and became dark, with no hope of anymore.
The vast majority of people will collapse and go crazy in such a situation.
However, Andy remained silent. He neither collapsed or went mad, nor cried out loudly for grievances, nor did he cry. He was silent and calm, even sitting on the sidelines, as if these things did not happen to him.
Andy's silence and calmness made people sad. For the first time, the people in the whole theater felt their hearts not touched.
Even Grover and other filmmakers have a solemn expression on their faces for the first time.
The movie continues.
Andy’s jail life officially began. At the beginning, Andy was silent and hardly spoke to anyone.
His every move is different from everyone else in the prison. He wanders around, just like walking in the park, living a carefree life.
It was not until a month later that Andy took the initiative to find Rhett and asked Rhett to help him with something, a small pickaxe.
Rhett asked Andy, did you want to use a pickaxe to escape from prison? Dig a tunnel or something.
After listening to Andy laughed, Rhett asked Andy why he laughed again?
Andy said that when Rhett saw the mattock, he would understand.
Later, Andy explained that he was going to hit some stones with a pickaxe to carve some small things to kill time, which was his former hobby.
Reddy agreed to help Andy get a pickaxe, of course, there is a charge.
Reid managed to get a pickaxe by his own means. When he saw the pickaxe, he finally understood why Andy laughed that day.
Because, if you use such a thing to dig tunnels to escape from prison, it is estimated that it will take six hundred years.
Rhett thinks this way, and the audience in the cinema thinks the same way. If you use such a small thing to dig a tunnel to escape from prison, Andy must be crazy.
After that, Andy, Reid, and several other prisoners were arranged to go out to work and repair a roof.
In the process of working, Andy overheard the captain of the prison guard who was guarding them, complaining to the prison guards about taxation. The captain of the prison guard said that one of his relatives had a lot of money left for him, but because he wanted to Taxes, there will be very little left after that sum of money is received.
Andy stopped working and walked to the early warning captain, saying that he has a way to make the early warning captain avoid taxes reasonably, and then get all the money with a lot of money.
In exchange, the prison guard captain needs to ask the prisoners who are out to work this time to drink three bottles of beer each.
The captain of the prison guard finally believed Andy and agreed to the deal.
Then things became like this.
On the day before the completion of this work out, at 10 am, a group of prisoners on the roof of the factory sat in a circle, drinking cold beer, and enjoying the Shawshank prison.
The captain of the prison guard treats you.
The prisoners were sitting on the roof drinking beer, and the sun was shining on their shoulders. At this moment, they felt that they were free again, as if they were building the roof of their own home.
Andy didn’t drink beer or sat with everyone. Instead, he sat alone in the sun, with his hands on his knees, leaning against the wall, his head slightly raised, and a faint smile on his mouth. , Watching the inmates enjoying the beer he brought them.
In Rhett's view, Andy must want to regain freedom, even for a short while.
And at this moment, Andy must also feel free, just like in his own home, inviting a few old friends to drink beer.
Seeing such a scene, all the audience in the theater just felt that their hearts were violently touched, and suddenly felt that they wanted to cry inexplicably.
There are even faint tears in the eyes of some viewers.
The scene they just saw was always lingering in their minds. Under the warm and soft sunlight, Andy, who had lost his freedom, just sat there, with a faint smile on his mouth, and looked at him affectionately. It was the time when I was free.
Andy must desperately desire freedom.
All the audience in the theater was touched. At this moment, they suddenly felt how stupid and ignorant they were to mock and belittle such a work.
Even Grover and a group of filmmakers were also touched in their hearts.
At this time they already knew that their purpose of watching this movie was definitely not achieved.
Those people and the media who watched the movie last night called this work a classic, which is by no means unfounded.
Although it is impossible to call it a classic from the current point of view, the movie is far from over.
Is it okay after the end?
Grover and a group of filmmakers finally began to feel a little uneasy.
If you put aside this unease, this kind of plot design made them feel the charm of Li Fan's film works for the first time.
The prison is dark, and now they feel the sunshine, the warm sunshine.
The movie continues.
Andy asked Rhett for help again and made a huge star poster to stick on the wall of the cell.
After that, Andy helped the prison guard captain successfully avoid taxes last time, which caught the attention of warden Norton.
During a raid, Norton found Andy was reading the "Bible" and said that he was very happy that Andy was able to like the "Bible", and said to Andy, "The way to be saved lies in it."
At first, the audience in the entire theater didn't understand why the warden said this to Andy?
After that, I got it.
It turned out that the warden took a fancy to Andy's ability in financial management. He had something that needed Andy to do for him and help him launder money.
In addition, the well-known Andy began to deal with tax issues for more and more prison guards, and even the children's education issues, the prison guards also came to Andy for advice.
At this time, Andy has already got rid of the heavy manual labor in prison, and the harassment of other abnormal prisoners, and even has his own office and assistants.
If it weren't for the fact that he was always wearing a prison uniform, Andy at this time seemed to have recovered his freedom and worked in his office.
Seeing this, the audience finally felt relieved, with smiles on their faces.
Although Andy is still not free, at least his life in prison has been much better.
And this is comforting enough.
