The Shawshank Redemption
The director of this film was Frank Darabont. Its based of the Stephen King Novel called " Rita Hayworth and Shawshank Redemption ". The main characters were Tim Robbins who plays Andy and Morgan Freeman who plays Red. I really liked how the movie took place in a prison mostly and how in the end it shows the scene on the beach. It went from a dark place to a place full of freedom. The whole story has a great logic to it and I would of never thought of what was going on through Andy’s head through the whole story. The ending surprised me. It was all in all great. The message I got from this film was Fear can hold you prisoner, Hope can set you free. This film showed me hope and that you can get past your mistakes in life and move forward without fearing the outside. As much as you are content with where you are and that may be all you know its okay to go out and build a new life. People may just think this film is the same as any other film about a guy escaping prison but its not even that its life, hope and life changing. This message is being sent to show people “hope”. It was made to tell people that no matter what mistakes you’ve done, you can overcome them. It related to god in the sense of us humans sinning and thinking god cant forgive us but the movie shines a light in the sense god forgives and receives you back with open arms. “Hope” is important in this movie because its what each inmate in that prison had to look forward to, nothing else would keep them going if it wasn’t for that hope of being free one day. It was named Shawshank Redemption I think because for one the jail was called that but it was also the place where people who have committed sins go and get healed in a sense. It’s like coming clean. The person I feel is being redeemed is well Andy and Red. Andy because well he went in there falsely accused and got back from the people who put him in that place. Andy on the other hand helped Red, if it wasn’t for him he would of ended up dead like Brooks.
