The Shawshank Redemption 刺激1995 (這一譯名不太常見,《肖申克的救贖》這一譯名大家應該更熟悉了。)
Andy Dufresne, a mild mannered New England banker, is convicted of murdering his wife and her lover. Despised at first by the other inmates because of his introverted manner, Andy slowly forges an unlikely friendship with Red, a seasoned lifer and his gang. Soon, Andy also becomes popular with the prison guards, including the vicious Captain Hadley who offers him protection against the jail's rougher convicts in exchange for financial counseling. The prison warden also takes advantage of Andy's banking knowledge by exchanging privileges for creative bookkeeping. Over a twenty year period, Andy is able to maintain his sanity and dignity in prison not by physical force but by mental force. His smarts and confidence keep him going and he is able to teach the other prisoners that hope is the ultimate means of survival.
1946年,年輕的銀行家安迪被冤枉殺了他的妻子和其情人,這意味著他要在肖申克的監獄渡過余生。在那里Andy結交了朋友瑞德。
銀行家出身的安迪很快就在監獄里很吃得開,他懂得如何幫助獄卒逃稅,懂得如何幫監獄長將他收到的非法收入“洗白”,很快,安迪就成為了獄長的私人助理。虛偽的獄長殺死可以證明安迪無罪的小偷,只因他想安迪一直留在監獄幫他做帳。
后來安迪通過自己的救贖獲得自由,同時也讓其他犯人明白希望是獲得救贖的唯一途徑。
推薦理由:才華、毅力兩樣,是任何人在任何境況下得到自由的最佳通途。
