Shawshank's redemption is a rare excellent inspirational film. The story is simple and full of Hollywood legend: Andy, the banker who was falsely murdered his wife and lover, was sentenced to life imprisonment and went to Shawshank prison. His difference attracted the attention of red, the black prisoner, and finally made a good friend. Andy is always taciturn and defends what he should have as a normal person. By chance, he began to use his rich financial knowledge to help prison guards "legally" evade taxes, and even to help the warden launder money, so as to get some lenient treatment for prisoners and himself. He even wrote to the state government, and a few years later received a response - the state government donated books, phonographs and even the unprecedented prison Book fund to Shawshank - for $500 a year. However, Andy finally learned the truth of his wife's murder from a new prisoner. When he appealed to the warden, he was rebuffed roughly. Because at this time, the greedy warden has regarded Andy as a cash cow for his own profits. He even killed the informed prisoner to keep Andy in Shawshank forever to satisfy his endless greed for money. After Andy's disillusionment with legal justice, he finally quietly embarked on the road of self salvation. In a dark and lightning night, Andy successfully crossed the secret channel he had dug for 19 years and regained freedom.
