From a literary and artistic perspective - this article is really good. It is very successful in characterization - I don't know if those who have watched the movie and praised it unanimously have gone back to read the book as a prototype, but I think that person's appearance will always remain in my mind, not only in my independent memory, but also in the shock it had to my soul.

Is there really a story from the movie Shawshank Redemption in this book? There are obviously only three stories. At least, can you please write clearly what is in it in the introduction? There is no such thing as deceiving people. The content is so short and the price is so expensive.
little black powder
The electronic version on JD. Com is 18 yuan, and the paper version is 22 yuan. This QQ reading is a bit deceptive! Do I have to imitate that "Chinese Studies Master" on Douyin and pick up newspapers for a few days before I can afford this book?
The movie is very good

Only strong people can save themselves, and only great people can save others.
Very classic
I really want to see it, but it's too expensive
Faced with the dilemma of falling into the bottom of his life, Andy did not give up hope, did not complain, did not degenerate himself, and still maintained his conscience and hope. It took him 19 years to finally escape from prison and gain freedom. At the same time, the film also exposed the dark corruption of American prisons at that time.
best friend
In the days when Andy first entered Shawshank Prison, other companions cried because they were not used to fear, but Andy looked calm and composed. When he was released every day, he walked silently by himself, looking like he was strolling in the park. Andy's uniqueness aroused the admiration of old prisoner Red, and they later became best friends.
In different stages of life, this anxiety about writing appears in different ways. "Rejection" is certainly one of them, but it is not serious. For a fourteen-year-old boy who enjoys writing, the nail hanging the rejected manuscript on the wall fell off because it could not bear the weight. At best, he would need to replace it with a longer one. Rejection notes such as "It's well written, but it's not suitable for us. You are very talented, please work harder!", Which greatly encouraged him and made him feel that there is endless hope and unlimited future.
