I have never seen such an amazing film since I saw The Shawshank Redemption. Shawshank encompasses friendships, hardships, hopes, and dreams. And what is so great about the movie is that it moves you, it gives you hope. Even though the circumstances between the characters and the viewers are quite different, you don't feel that far removed from what the characters are going through.
It is a simple film, yet it has an everlasting message. Frank Darabont didn't need to put any kind of outlandish special effects to get us to love this film, the narration and the acting does that for him. Why this movie didn't win all seven Oscars is beyond me, but don't let that sway you to not see this film, let its ranking on the IMDb's top 250 list sway you, let your friends recommendation about the movie sway you.
Set aside a little over two hours tonight and rent this movie. You will finally understand what everyone is talking about and you will understand why this is my all time favorite movie. 二、《肖申克的救赎》的影评
The story may sound simple, but the truth behind the words is remarkable. When I heard the name of the film first time, I considered the Shawshank to be a man’ name, but in face it is a jail——a hell in the world. Not only for the inhumanity of the jailors——they behaved brutally; but also for the jail gnawed at people’ heart by keeping them waiting and waiting as life passed. It seemed that only those utterly worthless people who gave up everything could survive. That’s where the story happened.
The part impressed me most is when Andy got out of the jai. He extended his arms in front of him in the heavy rain as if he were welcoming the fresh air and the freedom. At that moment, I saw the faith win the darkness, discharging light dazzling the eyes in the dark blue sky. Under the light, I could feel my recreant innermost being shivering as his voice said: “Remember, Hope is a good thing, maybe the best of things and no good thing ever dies!”
That’s why I like this film: it encourages people to fight to preserve the dignity of human beings, to appreciate the beauty of life, and the most important is to keep hope forever. He once that is born, that is die. Everyone is the same. The only difference is whether busy living or busy dying. The film tells me even a man can live once, but if he keeps faith, keeps hope and works his life right, then once is enough. The faith is the bird that feels the light when the dawn is still dark, the hope is the chief happiness that this world affords, and the life should be full of the singing of the bird and the happiness hope brings. " What’s that do you think? It’s the trembling of the heart, the singing of the mind, the flying of the soul and the hope to be free.”
这个故事也许看似简单,但是其中的道理却是发人深思的。我第一次听到这电影的名字时,曾以为“肖申克”是个人名,但事实上它是一所监狱的名字--鲨堡。说它是人间地狱,不仅那里狱卒残暴,狱霸横行,而且它还侵蚀着人的心灵。生命在漫漫无期的等待中消逝,似乎只有那些行尸走肉般放弃了所有的人才能够活下去。
这就是故事的开始。最让我感动的是安迪逃出牢狱时候的情景。大雨滂沱之中他伸出手臂似乎在迎接新鲜空气和自由。此刻,我看见自信战胜了黑暗,其光芒照亮了深蓝天空中的眼睛。在此光辉下,我可以感觉到自己那颗怯懦的心在颤抖,似乎在说:记住,希望是好东西,也许是人间至善,而美好的东西永远不会消逝。
它激励人们为人类的尊严而斗争,为生命的美丽而感恩,最重要的是它让我们永怀希望。这就是我喜欢这部电影的原因。
有出生,就会有死亡,人人均是如此。唯一不同的是--忙着活,还是劳碌死。电影告诉我们,虽然人只能活一次,但是如果带着信心和希望好好地活,一次也就足够了。信心就像在黎明前看到曙光的鸟,而希望则是这个世界给我们的最重要的礼物,生命应该充满鸟儿的歌声和希望带来的快乐。
你认为如何你呢?我想这是心房的跳舞,思想的歌唱,灵魂的翱翔,以及对自由的渴望。三、Have you ever known a famous experiment of the flea? In my point of view, I think it has
some commons with the film Shawshank Redemption.
First I'd like to introduce the experiment. It was an experiment about the flea. A zoologist
put some fleas in a glass cylinder,then used a piece of glass to cover it. At first every flea did
all it can in jumping. It must be painful.So after several times,they jumped a little lower,in case
of knocking the glass.After three days,when the zoologist took off the glass,he found that no
flea would jump out of the glass cylinder.Why? Because they got used to jump gently.
We can find the glass is a visible prison to the fleas,but they build an invisible prison for
themselves after three days.
The same with the film,the characters like the fleas in a visible prison which is called Shawshank.
There are three characters made a deep impression on me. They are Andy 、 Red and Brooks.
Though they are the same in the visible prison,they are different .The difference
between them is whether there located an invisible prison in their heart.
Brooks who lives in the Shawshank for fifty years.He likes the flea in the experiment,when
he gets the chance to leave Shanwshank, he chooses to threaten his mates in order to stay in Shanwshank.
But he fails,his only hope is broken.During the fifty years,he builds an invisible prison for himself.
I remember the first time I watched this film was in my senior high school,and I still remember
that I cried hard when I saw Brooks hung himself.At that time I thought it's the fault of the
society,but now I think it's the fault of the invisible prison.Red's words proves my point:"Man's
been here fifty years. This place is all he knows. In here, he's an important man,
an educated man. A librarian. Out there, he's nothing but a used up old con with
arthritis in both hands. Couldn't even get a library card if he applied. You see what
I'm saying?”“Believe what you want. These walls are funny. First you hate 'em, then
you get used to 'em. After long enough, you get so you depend on 'em. That's "institutionalized."”
It is the "institutionalized" put Brooks into the invisible prison.He has no hope in the
invisible prison,life becomes meaningless.He gets dying.
Red,is an man who can break his invisible prison.He is another kind of flea.
At first he likes Brooks,he build an invisible for himself.He told Andy that hope
is a dangerous thing,hope can drive a man insane,it's got no use the inside,you’d
better get used to that idea.At that time,he has already built the invisible prison
and broke his hope.He couldn't hack it on the outside.Been in here too long, he
is an institutional man now.Like old Brooks Hatlen was.In the prison he is the
guy who get it for the others.Out there, he wouldn't know where to begin. But
Andy's word influences him"get busy living,or get busy dying."At that time,Red
picks up his hope which breaks the invisible prison.When a man has the courage
to break the invisible one,let alone the visible one.At the end of film,Red get out
of the Shawshank and has a new life in the society with his hope! Red,may short
of the word"redemption",and he redeems himself.
Andy who is the hero in this film.And he is an amazing flea! There is no prison
in his mind.Shawshank is the visible prison which seems very sturdy .But he just uses
a small hammer to dig a hole,then he breaks the prison.19 years is a long time! But to Andy,his
hope supports him so that he can ignore the time! As the famous sentence goes hope can set
you free.I think another different between Andy and the others is that he never has an invisible
one in his heart.From the beginning to the end,he is free in his mind.That's why he can do what
the others cannot do! During the 19 years,he holds his hope,he still remember the hight which
he can reach.
The three man are three different kinds of fleas.The fleas tells us not to be prisoned in the invisible
prisons and remember hope is a good thing, maybe the best of things, and no good thing ever
dies.
We should set us free with our hopes!Let's break the invisible prison!给你几个,你可以综合一下。
啧啧,证据哈~~
