Chapter 680 Shawshank Redemption!! (Part 1)
Countless movie fans are sitting in many movie theaters around the world in anticipation.
Almost half of the stars in the entire Xiazhou entertainment circle gathered in the theater, while Lin Qiu and a few friends witnessed the arrival of "The Shawshank Redemption" in the Chang'an Cinema.
Tick tock, tick tock, tick tock...
As time passed by, the atmosphere in these theaters gradually became tense!
This is Lin Qiu's last film before leaving the film industry. It is precisely because of this that the expectations of thousands of movie fans are so high.
"Coming!"

"It's time!"
"call!"
Many movie fans saw the lights in the theater dimming, patted their cheeks, and looked at the screen intently. They didn't want to miss any shot of this movie!
As the premiere time comes, "The Shawshank Redemption" is officially released in Kyushu!
…
The first shot alone, even if there is not much information, can still make these fans excited!
The story of "Shawshank Redemption" begins with a court trial!
Everyone is familiar with the famous movie star Li Jie from Xizhou. This time Li Jie used a completely different image, so that the fans can’t feel the flavor of a comedy star in him. No wonder people who can act well in comedies are all Top notch actors!
In court, Andy, the protagonist played by Ritchie, is on trial for the murder of his wife and his wife's lover.
Andy, on the other hand, was retelling everything he had done based on his own memories.
Yes, Andy did want to murder the two of them because he found out that his wife was cheating on him. On a rainy night, Andy drove to the place where the other party had a tryst. He wanted to shoot and kill the two of them, but he gave up later. .
"Fuck!"
“It’s so exciting from the beginning and full of suspense!”
"The beginning of this kind of movie is so attractive!"
"It's hard to say whether he will be killed or not."
Because although there are scenes of Andy's memories in the film, these are Andy's one-sided words after all.
It is very possible if there is any reversal later.
But soon, these fans shook their heads and erased this idea, because Andy was sentenced!
The court did not believe Andy's confession at all because it was too coincidental.
Moreover, Andy said that he threw the gun into the river. In the vast river, the police searched for the gun for three days but could not find it. There was no way to compare the ballistic bullet holes. Then, his wife and lover were shot to death.
How could such a coincidence happen?
The final result was that Andy was pronounced in court and the murderer was Andy, and he was sentenced to life imprisonment!
Sent to - Shawshank Prison.
…
"The Shawshank Redemption?"
"What do you mean, is it a story about Andy really killing someone and redeeming himself in prison?"
"It should be, right?"
"Should we kill him or not? I still don't know..."
The plot at the beginning was full of suspense, so it attracted the attention of thousands of movie fans in just 5 minutes!
Judging from the title, almost 99% of movie fans think this is a positive movie. After all, the word "redemption" means self-rescue. From a conventional perspective, the content of the entire film , actually formed unknowingly in the minds of many movie fans.
It was Andy who reformed and completed his self-salvation in the prison of Shawshank.
But they never thought that if Andy...
Was he himself framed?
…
The screen turned and showed an important supporting role in "The Shawshank Redemption" - Red.
Reed was sentenced to life in prison for murder in 1927, and was paroled several times without success.
Then he became the "authoritative figure" in Shawnk Prison. As long as he could pay, Red could get anything you wanted, including cigarettes, candy, wine, and even some prohibited items.
It can be said that this is in line with everyone's perception and impression of Mizhou Prison in Jiuzhou. Just as Rhett himself said, there is such a number one figure in Mizhou Prison.
Andy is in jail.
In a way that was difficult for him to accept.
Prison is a strange existence for most movie fans, but prisons in Mizhou are not as peaceful as Xiazhou. Once in prison, Andy received what is called "Mizhou Prison Education."
It has almost become a habit for prisoners to bully newcomers, and there is no "respect" at all in the entire prison. Whether it is ridicule, humiliation, or even bullying, it abounds.
This kind of prison life is suffocating, but Andy has to face a lifetime of imprisonment.
"In such an environment... I don't believe that people will get any salvation..."
"What does The Shawshank Redemption mean?"
"What a tragedy Andy, I am now convinced that he was wrongly accused."
…
Thousands of movie fans were completely immersed in the prison atmosphere created by Lin Qiu, and the first encounter between the two protagonists Andy and Red made the fans think deeply.
"I'm Andy."
"Banker who killed his wife? Why did you kill your wife?"
"I didn't kill her."
Hearing Andy's words, Rhett immediately laughed, "You are very suitable here. Everyone here is innocent, you know?"
What Red said was right. He had seen too much in this prison.
Almost every criminal did not think that the current situation was his fault, but Andy did not listen to Red's so-called sigh, but just wanted to buy a small hammer from Red.
So far, the main line begins.
Red was actually unwilling at first. After all, such a sharp weapon was in prison. If Andy got angry and killed someone, wouldn't he be unlucky?
"What does Andy want a hammer for?"
The first reaction of many fans was confusion. Just like Red, the possibility of digging a tunnel was quickly ruled out because the amount of work was too terrifying, and in prison, the search was so strict that it was not easy to hide, let alone digging a tunnel.
Andy's prison life officially began, but it was obvious that in such a chaotic place like Michigan, the prison was even more chaotic. In prison, Andy was harassed by three homosexual prisoners, but Andy would rather die than obey, so he was often beaten by the other party!
Two years later, Andy's prison life finally ushered in a turning point.
One time, Andy and Red went to repair the roof together. When brushing tar on the roof, they heard a prison guard who was worried about his tax payment.
Who is Andy? A banker, this is his old profession!
In prison, if you have a prison guard, it is a hard relationship, and life in prison can be much better, so Andy boldly told the other party that he could help him evade taxes, thus establishing a relationship with the early warning.
Later, knowing that Andy had such a skill, more and more prison guards came to Andy, and Andy's status also changed dramatically. His status in the entire Shawshank prison skyrocketed. He directly turned the tables and used his relationship to directly beat the criminals who had bullied him before into a disability!
In the past two years, Andy and Red's relationship can be said to have become increasingly close.
From being a rookie when he first entered the prison to having friends and backers now, Andy can be said to have changed his life in prison with his own abilities.
This movie seems to have a magical power, firmly attracting thousands of fans.
The plot is not complicated, but under the direction of Lin Qiu and the superb performance of Li Jie, it is quite exciting. However, so far, the audience still can't figure out what the theme of this movie is, and what kind of redemption story Lin Qiu is telling.
Including the search of the warnings, they couldn't find the hammer that Andy bought before.
This must be a foreshadowing.
But for the film, the content is not just Andy's story.
It explores life, human nature and the relationship between people and society.
For example, a prisoner in it, his name is Brooks, the librarian of the prison, or Old Brook. Old Brook is ordinary, mediocre, lonely and lonely.
Old Bull was imprisoned in 1905. He worked as a librarian in 1912 until Andy arrived. During this period, only Andy comforted Old Bull. What moved the fans was not these, but that when Old Bull was about to be released from prison, he could not accept his bail and wanted to hurt his kidnapped cellmates to get a charge and stay in prison.
Don't want to be released from prison, want to stay in prison? !
When Old Bull first made this move, many people didn't understand, including Andy, who was trying to persuade Old Bull.
But only Red, who was used to human nature, could say that Old Bull had been institutionalized and he couldn't leave prison life.
He had been in prison for a full fifty years and adapted to life in prison. Now that he was released from prison, it meant that an old man like Old Bull was about to step into a strange and terrifying world.
"Brooks is not crazy."
"He is just institutionalized."
"He has been here for fifty years! Fifty years! This is the only place he knows!"
"Here, he is an important person, a well-educated person, outside, he is nothing."
As soon as these words came out, almost all fans resonated with them.
This is universal in any industry and any stage of life, such as school and society.
In school, you may be the focus, but in society, you are nothing, and the situation of old Brook is even more extreme. After living in prison for fifty years, can he still adapt to life outside the prison?
I believe that at this point, there are still many fans who are not experienced in life who still want to instill chicken soup, telling old Brook that you want to be free, you should step out of your comfort zone and go to a wider world?
How difficult it is for an ordinary person to step out of the comfort zone.
When a person's life value is denied, how desperate this person should be.
...
Old Brook is out of prison.
This scene will never be forgotten by fans.
The lonely, frightened, confused, and uneasy look on Yu's bus leaving Shawshank Prison.
He didn't look like an old man at all, but like an innocent child abandoned by his family, helpless, panicked, and didn't know what to do.
Old Bull really tried to adapt to life outside. He was assigned a job and worked hard, but his physical pain and the strange looks from people around him made it difficult for him to survive in this world.
Loneliness filled Lao Bu's body. In the outside world, he had no spiritual support and no one to talk to. He often woke up in the middle of the night, and the fear from the new world enveloped Lao Bu.
Under this huge pressure, Lao Bu wanted to return to Shawshank.
But he couldn't do it.
He is too old, and society will not accommodate him because of his age, and he does not have the ability to adapt to this ever-changing society like young people, so...
Lao Bu's life has reached the point of death.
…
When they saw Lao Bu put on a suit, came to the window that symbolized freedom, and hanged himself, movie fans all over Kyushu were shocked beyond measure.
The blood in the whole body seems to be half hot and half cold, like a lump in the throat, and my heart aches!
Lao Bu is a good person, but in the end, they have come to the sky where they think they are free, but this kind of fear can only be escaped by death!
As Rhett said, in prison, Lao Bu was a respected person, but in the outside world, he was nothing, and his basic needs as a social individual were not met at all.
Physiological needs, safety needs, social needs, esteem needs and self-actualization needs.
These are the basic needs of human beings, but the moment Lao Bu was released from prison, all these needs disappeared. It can be said that death is doomed.
This makes fans even more silent.
Perhaps for Lao Bu, death may be the best destination and the easiest path in life.
When the news of Boo's death reached Shawshank, Andy and Red were both sad.
And Rhett even said something that made movie fans goosebumps:
"He should die here."
…
He should die here.
Is Shawshank Prison a good place?
Of course not, this is a prison, a dirty, sinful place.
But for Lao Bu, this is the only place he is familiar with. This is Lao Bu's whole world. In real life, many young people hope that the old man will step out of his comfort zone and old ideas to see and become familiar with them. This new world.
However, they never thought that the world of these old people was still in the past, and coming to the new world would only make them more frightened and frustrated.
Old Boo is different from Andy.
Andy is a talented person, smart, wise, strategic, and good at calculation.
But Lao Bu is an ordinary person, doing nothing and not smart, living peacefully like this.
Because of this, Lao Bu's death is even more sad.
In the movie, the protagonist of "redemption" is obviously Andy, but the person who echoes the redemption is Lao Boo.
It's death.
