Due to a drunk driving accident, the male protagonist voluntarily squatted into jail. He didn't expect to have a complete reversal of his life trajectory. He went from a white-collar middle class directly to a prison boss, a gang leader.

Good and evil are lurking in you and me, and when the right environment is encountered, different flowers will be nourished. The good and evil in human nature are relative. The male protagonist is good. In order to survive for himself and his family, he does not hesitate to obey the instructions of the gang and let the flowers of evil bloom in his body, so that his family and children are exempt from the gang. He leads a normal life peacefully, so he is kind to his family. The male protagonist is evil. He entered the prison, a dojo full of evil deeds, and began to believe in social Darwinism, using the law of the jungle to control his actions, and doing nothing evil until he singled out the prison boss and the leader of the gang. Position, as far as society is concerned, as far as the various evil spirits who died under him and their families are concerned, he is the incarnation of evil and the demon of evil. Therefore, good and evil live together, depending on what Yang values ​​you uphold, how you adjust your living style according to the environment, and what rules you live according to, you will inspire your own different fruits of good and evil.

It's a pity that the process of transforming the values ​​of the male protagonist from good to evil in the movie is not natural enough, nor does it conform to psychological logic. His family, wife, and son could not see a reasonable influence in his thought transformation. Only see the unilateral role of the gang.

The same is the accidental imprisonment of financial white-collar workers. The survival logic of the hero of "Shawshank's Redemption" hates reasonableness and is natural. His psychological logic has not been reversed, and only changed the way in the process of acting. Cleverly used his skills to obtain a chance to survive in the cracks of the jungle society, and waited for the opportunity to bear the humiliation and used his skills to pay tribute to the perpetrators of prison corruption. His patience and wisdom finally helped him to gain complete freedom.

Whether in the jungle of society or in the jungle of prison, only by adhering to one's basic values, giving full play to their intellect, and adapting to local conditions, can they be like a fish in the water, so that oneself can obtain spiritual salvation and avoid going to the other side of evil.

It suddenly occurred to me that "Dai Dajin" was imprisoned for drunk driving, and he admitted his mistakes in time and tried to stand up. Now the more and more exciting it will be. If he was drunk driving and imprisoned in the United States, he would become...?
