The prequel to "Shawshank Redemption"

I saw this film inadvertently, and I didn’t expect it to be the prequel of Shawshank Salvation . There are

too many familiar fragments:

there are also old black inmates, but they are not responsible for smuggling, but the boss in prison; the

old inmates did not raise children. birds, raised a rat;

old cellmate also killed, but not hanged;

entered prison immediately, "Brokeback mountain" fancy, except that Clemens too tough, and that they solve the problem;

small Even though I did was wrong to kill inmates , But it was the only one of the four that did not succeed, and the valuation ended badly.

The warden also likes to use the Bible to speak politely.


Of course, the plot is far less dramatic than "Shawn Kerr's Redemption", and the escape from prison is also quite rough.

Some began to despise Shi's classmates and suspected of plagiarism. It seems that someone found it on IMDB

    Classical Prison Break Films: "Dead Convict Escape" 1956, "The Hole" 1960, "The Great Escape" 1963, "Escape from Akara" 1979, "Shawshank's Redemption" 1994. The first few parts are all classic realism, through the detailed description of the high transcendence technique, as well as the rendering of suspense and tension, let us and the protagonist experience the intense and exciting prison escape process. Although the last "Shawshank's Redemption" obviously borrowed from the film, it can surpass the film and become a classic also thanks to its sublimation in artistic and connotative expression, as well as the powerful emotional motivation in the story.
