How does the filmmaker illustrate the issues in “The Shawshank redemption”?
The Shawshank Redemption film is based on Stephen King’s story Rita Hayworth and Shawshank Redemption. The film is about a convicted murderer named Andy Dufresne (played by Tim Robbins) who’s sentenced for life, twice over at Shawshank prison, Maine. The film shows us what prison life is like for Andy and his inmates, and focuses on the themes: redemption, friendship, hope and good versus evil. ... The buses coming inside Shawshank to bring in new prisoners, the parole hearings that Ellis Boyd Redding known as RED (played by Morgan Freeman) and the usual prison routines of waking up, the showers, the prisoners working illustrates the regular schedule of prison life. ...
Darabont uses Red as the narrator of the story, to let us see Shawshank the way he sees it, the way a long-time convict sees it to illustrate routine once again in prison life.
