The story happened in 1947. Banker Andy is accused of shooting his wife and her lover. Andy was sentenced to life imprisonment, which means he will spend the rest of his life in Shawshank prison.
Hong (1927) was sentenced to life imprisonment for murder, and his parole failed several times. He became an "authority figure" in Shawshank prison. As long as you can afford it, he can get almost anything you want: cigarettes, candy, wine and even marijuana. Whenever a new prisoner comes, everyone bets on who will cry on the first night. Rhett thinks Andy, who is fragile and bookish, will cry. As a result, Andy's silence made him lose two packs of cigarettes, but it also made Rhett sit up and take notice of him.
For a long time, Andy didn't contact anyone. When everyone was complaining, he took a leisurely walk in the yard, just like in the park. A month later, the first thing Andy asked Rhett to do for him was a small pickaxe. His explanation was that he wanted to carve some small things to kill time, and he said that he managed to escape the routine inspection in prison. Soon, Rhett played the chess carved by Andy. Later, Andy made a huge poster of movie star rita hayworth and put it on the wall of his cell.
Once, Andy and several other prisoners went out to work, and he overheard the prison guard talking about paying taxes. Andy said he had a way to get prison officials to legally exempt this large amount of tax. In exchange, he won two bottles of asia pacific breweries for each of a dozen prisoners' friends. Drinking beer, Rhett said that he felt free for the first time in many years.
Because Andy is proficient in financial system, he quickly got rid of the heavy physical labor in prison and the harassment of other abnormal prisoners. Soon, the famous Andy began to deal with tax issues for more and more prison guards, and even asked him about his children's further education. At the same time, Andy has gradually become an important tool for Shawnk warden Walden to launder money. Because Andy kept writing letters to the governor, he finally applied for a small sum of money for the prison library.
Prison life is very dull, so you always have to find something to do by yourself. Andy heard that Rhett used to like playing harmonica, so he bought him one. After the dead of night, you can hear the melodious and slight harmonica sound echoing in the prison.
The arrival of a young prisoner broke Andy's quiet prison life: the prisoner had heard about Andy's case while serving his sentence in another prison, and he knew who the real murderer was. But when Andy asked the warden to reopen the case, he was rejected and severely punished by two months of solitary confinement. In order to prevent Andy from being released, the warden designed and killed the insider.
Facing the cruel reality, Andy became very depressed. One day, he said to Rhett, "If you can get parole one day, you must go somewhere to realize a wish for me." That's where I first dated my wife. I dug a box under a big oak tree there. You'll know what it is then. "That night, it was stormy and thunderous, and Andy, who was redeemed by his soul, successfully escaped from prison.
It turns out that Andy used that little pickaxe to dig holes every day for twenty years, and then covered the holes with posters. After Andy got out of prison, he took some of the black money saved by the warden and told on the truth of the warden's corruption and bribery. What the warden saw in the safe where he kept the small ledger was a Bible left by Andy. On the first page, it says, "The road to redemption is among them." In addition, there are hollowed-out parts in the Bible to hide pickaxes that dig holes.
After 40 years in prison, Rhett was finally released on parole. He found a box of cash and a personal letter from Andy under the oak tree he had agreed with Andy, and the two old friends finally reunited on the sunny beach in Mexico.
