How about the movie The Shawshank Redemption?
[1] Rhett 1927 was sentenced to life imprisonment for murder and was released on parole several times. He has now become an "authority figure" in Shawshank prison. As long as you can afford it, he can get almost anything you want. Whenever a new prisoner comes, everyone bets on who will cry on the first night. Rhett thinks Andy, who is fragile and bookish, will cry. As a result, Andy's silence made him lose two packs of cigarettes. But it also made Rhett sit up and take notice of him. For a long time, Andy hardly touched anyone, in the vertical poster of the movie The Shawshank Redemption.
When everyone complained to each other, he took a leisurely walk in the yard, just like in the park. A month later, the first thing Andy asked Rhett to do for him was a stone hammer. He wanted to kill time by carving small things, and said that he tried to escape the routine inspection by the prison authorities. Later, Andy made a huge poster of rita hayworth and put it on the wall of his cell. Once, Andy went out to work with several other prisoners, and he overheard the prison officer talking about tariffs. Andy said he had a way to get prison officials to legally exempt this large amount of tax. In exchange, he won three bottles of beer for every prisoner friend who worked with him. Drinking beer, Rhett speculates that Andy is just taking advantage of this to enjoy his former sense of freedom. During a ward round, the warden handed him the Bible and told him that "the way to salvation lies in it". Later, he was sent to work with Brooks, an old man who was about to be paroled, and became the treasurer of the prison. He writes a letter every week and works hard for the expansion of the library. Six years later, his wish finally came true. And he used the prison radio to broadcast "The Wedding of Figaro" for everyone, and he brought freedom to the prisoners in the whole prison. He began to help the honorable warden launder money. A thief went to prison for stealing. Coincidentally, he knew the truth about the death of Andy's wife and her lover. Excited Andy found the warden and hoped that the warden could help him reverse the case. The hypocritical warden promised Andy on the surface, but secretly killed Tommy (Andy's student in prison) who told him the truth because he wanted Andy to stay in prison and help him settle accounts. Andy knows the truth and decides to be free through his own redemption! Before the action, he left a mysterious message to his best cellmate Rhett. Andy successfully escaped from prison through hardships and took away his flawless money to help the warden. The warden committed suicide in despair, two friends finally met, and Lacrimosa ended.

Edit this wonderful tidbit
Remember the scene when Boggs, one of the three sisters, was beaten by the captain and sent to the ambulance? During the filming, the old ambulance broke down, and the ambulance action in the picture was actually pulled by the staff. Do you remember the scene of Andy driving a red convertible on the mountain road in Mexico? It's a Pontiac GTO produced by 1969, and the film is still in 1966. The film crew contacted a mustang produced by 1965, but the owner changed his mind at the last minute. Do you remember the first night in Shawshank prison, when the old prisoners kept laughing and trying to scare the new prisoners? In the process of shooting, because there are not enough extras, the security at the shooting scene is also used to create a noisy atmosphere. Do you remember the close-up of Andy sitting in the car with a bullet in his hand on the night of the murder? In fact, those hands belonged to director Frank Darabont, because this shot was not designed in the original script, but was made later. Do you remember the first time Andy and Lao Heihong met on the playground (Hong was playing baseball with others)? Because there were countless problems in shooting, the director spent a whole day shooting the scene repeatedly, which made him feel perfect. Do you remember Andy walking in the snow? Those snowflakes are actually potato chips. Do you remember the prison guard who shouted "turn off the lights" at the beginning of the movie? He is also a prison guard in real life. Do you remember the black prisoner sitting behind the same van when Tommy (Andy's student, the one who was shot) came to prison? In real life, that man is the warden of Ohio juvie. Remember the stone Andy used to smash the sewer? In fact, the original design was to let Andy use his small stone hammer. Later, it was found that the small stone hammer was not enough to break the sewer, so it was changed to stone. Do you remember the scene where Andy and Rhett meet and hug on the beach in the last scene? This does not exist in the script, because there is no such plot in Stephen King's original novel. This was added by the director against his will at the insistence of his partner, and he even wanted to cut it out after filming. Fortunately, several audiences liked it very much during the demonstration, so the director made a concession and decided to keep the plot. Later audiences were lucky enough to watch this happy and tearful ending scene.
The old man who won his belated freedom played by Morgan Freeman is called RED, which is the first three letters of the English word "Redemption" (also the title of this film). The role of Tommy Williams (a young man who was sentenced to two years for stealing TV) was originally prepared for Brad Pitt. Gil bellows, who plays Tommy, played a similar role in 1997' s popular TV series ally mcbeal (the Hong Kong version of Ellie's fantasy world and the Taiwan version of popular TV series ally mcbeal such as Friends). The shooting location was Mansfield State Prison in Ohio, but the crew had to renovate it before shooting because the prison was too shabby. The indoor scene was shot in the studio, because repairing the interior of this prison is more expensive than setting the same set. The Humane Society of America supervised the filming of all crows involving Brooks in the film. In one scene, Brooks feeds maggots to his crows. Aha immediately thought that the maggots were inhuman and asked them to use a natural death maggot, so he had to do it. The photo posted on Morgan Freeman's parole document is actually Freeman's youngest son, Alfonso Freeman. Alfonso also ran a walk-on in the film, that is, he shouted "new prisoner! New prisoner today! " ("fresh fish! Fresh fish today! We got them involved! " ) That one. There is a picture of Einstein on the wall of Andy's cell. Tim Robbins, who plays Andy, once appeared in the fantasy film IQ about Einstein (1994). The movie rita hayworth, the American god of love, showed the prisoners was Gilda the Slut (Gilda 1946). In the scene of the trial, Andy said that he threw the gun into the Royal River. In Stephen King's another novel "Stand by and Watch May", the escaped children cross the same river. Stephen King said that this novel is the crystallization of his years of experience in watching prison movies. As the film shows, the plot of this film has many similarities with Dumas' The Count of Monte Cristo. Walden Norton hummed "Strong Guarantee", a church hymn written by Martin Luther, the pioneer of Christian reform/founder of Lutheran Church. The lyrics are: God is my strong fortress and my unshakable protection; The Lord is my help at any time, so that I can be out of danger and fear; Satan, the ancient enemy, still wants to make waves. He is cunning and powerful, cruel and vicious, which makes it impossible to prevent. When Walden Norton opened the Bible with Andy's chisel and hammer, the page he opened was Exodus, which described in detail the process of Jews fleeing Egypt. This film is dedicated to director Frank Darabont's agent and friend alan glynn. Green died of AIDS before the film was finished. Frank Darabont, the director, watched "Thieves Have a Way" every weekend during filming, and got inspiration from it, using voice-over to make the transition. The Italian version of the film is 15 minutes shorter than the American version, and the clip briefly explaining Andy's free life at the end of the film is deleted. Although the cinema box office performance is quite satisfactory, this film has been far ahead in the rental video rankings.
The editor's explanation of this special scene.
Do you still remember the scene when Andy escaped from prison: first he went through the hole he dug, then he climbed over the sewer, and then he welcomed "new life" in the wind and rain. This is also a process of life, even if you are innocent. First use your own hands to rush out of the original world. Then what is waiting for you is a stinking, but it is also a long way for you to "smash" yourself. You passed because you knew what was waiting for you later. Then you have a storm. At this time, instead of complaining, you enjoy life and hug yourself in the storm. When Warden Norton searched Andy's cell for the first time, he actually missed the Bible and the huge movie poster in his hand. There is a stone hammer in the Bible and a hole in the poster, which is the only way for Andy to finally escape from the plan. Explain that the most dangerous place is also the safest place.
Edit this wonderful dialogue
Everyone is his own god. If you give up on yourself, who will save you? Everyone is busy, some are busy living, some are busy dying. You are busy pursuing fame and fortune, and you are busy with daily necessities. Stop and think: Is your brain institutionalized? Where is your God? "The Shawshank Redemption" poster (9) Fear makes you a prisoner and hopes to set you free. A strong man can save himself, and a great man can save others. Cowardice imprisons people's souls, hoping to make you feel free. The strong help themselves, and the saints help others. Prison life is full of routine, and it is becoming more and more routine. Prison life is full of routine. Rhett's voice-over: I must remind myself that some birds won't be caged. Their feathers are too bright. When they fly away, part of you knows that it is a sin to lock them up. I'm really happy. However, with them gone, the place where you live is more monotonous and empty. I guess I just miss my friends. Red narrator: I must always tell myself that some birds can't be caged. Their feathers are too bright. When they fly away, you know in your heart that it is a sin to lock them up, and you will be inspired by it. However, as soon as they leave, your place will be darker and more empty. I think I really miss my friends. Rhett: These walls are a bit funny. First you hate them, then you get used to them. When enough time has passed, you will rely on them. That's institutionalized. Red: These walls are very interesting. When you first went to prison, you hated the high walls around you; Slowly, you get used to living in it; Eventually you will find that you have to rely on it to survive. This is called institutionalization. I found that I was very excited. I can hardly sit still or have thoughts in my head. I think this is the excitement that only a free person can feel. A free person has started a long journey with an unknown ending. I hope I can cross the border successfully. I hope to meet my friend and shake his hand. I hope the Pacific Ocean is as blue as I dreamed. I wish I found myself so excited that I could not sit still or think. I think only those who regain their freedom and are about to embark on a new journey can feel the excitement of unveiling the mystery of the future. I hope to shake hands with my friends across the border. I hope the water in the Pacific Ocean is as blue as in my dream. I hope so. I think life comes down to a simple choice: get busy living or get busy dying. Life can be summed up in a simple choice: birth and death. Rhett: Not a day goes by that I don't regret it. Not because I'm here, nor because you think I should be here. I looked back at me at that time, a stupid young child who committed a terrible crime. I want to talk to him. I want to try to reason with him and tell him the truth. But I can't. The child has long gone, leaving only the old man. I have to accept this fact. Turn over a new leaf This is just nonsense. So go ahead and fill out your form, boy, and don't waste my time. Because honestly, I don't care. Rhett: I've always felt guilty about what I did, not because I was here (in prison) or trying to please you (parole officer). Looking back on the detours I took, I want to say something to that stupid young man who committed a felony, tell him how I feel now, and tell him that there are other ways to solve the problem. However, I can't. Young people have long been submerged in the long river of years, leaving only an old man to face the past alone. Turn over a new leaf. It's just a lie! Don't waste my time, boy. Put your stamp on it. Honestly, I don't care. Some birds can't be caged, that's all. Their feathers are too bright ... some birds are doomed to be caged, because every feather of them shines with freedom. Hope is a good thing, maybe the best of things, and no good thing ever dies. Hope is a good thing, maybe the best thing in the world. Good things never die. Some places in the world are not made of stones, but there are some things in them that they can't reach or touch. That's yours. In the film, Andy said, "Forget that there is … a place … in a world not made of stones, there is something … inside … where they can't reach … that's hope" (don't forget that the world penetrates everything in the high wall, and it is in our hearts, and they can't reach it, that's hope). Indeed, as Andy said, the high walls of prison can bind our physical freedom, and even institutionalized things can bind our spiritual freedom, but only hope can't be given up. A hopeless life is gloomy, lifeless and even meaningless. Andy has never given up hope for freedom in his heart. He has been working hard for his own hope-every night, he uses that small hammer to dig a wall that Rhett thinks can't be dug through for hundreds of years. For Rhett and Bruce, they have long given up hope, thinking that in their view, hope can only make themselves more miserable, and even think that hope is the root of pain. What kind of spiritual belief is it that a person can't give up his yearning for freedom in the painful prison life of 19? So he succeeded and regained his freedom.
