When I first started watching this movie, I even felt a little bored. I didn't know what the director wanted to express. It was a daily trivial matter in the prison. Although Andy was very smart, he had already been sentenced to prison by the court and had already arrived in prison. He also spent ten years of his life in prison. Does the film want to show us the process of a prisoner from entering prison to death or release?
But when I saw the end, I really wanted to applaud loudly, applaud the director's clever arrangement, and applaud Andy's wisdom.
It turned out that every previous picture, every shot, and even every expression was a foreshadowing, all foreshadowing for the final escape. After watching it, I even want to watch it a second time immediately, to carefully recall the implied meaning of each scene and the expressions of the characters.
It turned out that Andy had his own escape plan as soon as he entered Shawshank. Everything he did, playing with stones, asking for beautiful posters, running a library, helping prison guards with accounting, etc., was for his own plan. For decades, he has not given up. This dedication and perseverance, this meticulous mind and strong heart, are really unbelievable. great!
