'The Shawshank Redemption\r'

'Adrian Sanchez Intro to Film 1 Sharri Hefner 4/20/13 Shawshank repurchase The Shawshank Redemption is a drama film released in 1994 written and directed by frank Darabont. The over e truly stick out(predicate) theme of The Shawshank Redemption is the buck of closing off and im prisonment. Each of the inmates wrong Shawshank prison ho role is locked up metaphorically as soundly as literally. Most prisoners in Shawshank redemption argon t here(predicate) for liveliness sentences. all that time behind the walls have changed the path the prisoners venture and how they perish.The young prisoners always separate they are innocent when they are real conscience-smitten. But Red, (played by Morgan Freeman) admits that he is guilty after sp destinationing 40 old age in put aside. The time he had to think close what he did is what led him to protest the truth. This is merely one example of what all those years of isolation does to a person. The baronial elements, photogra phic photographic camera, and the narrative is what I will use to prove the theme. The overall look and sprightliness of the film is dismal until the ending. The mise-en-scene of shawshank prison is unfair and shady.The convention and characters attend to shape the mise-en-scene as an un plainly and shady prison system. The design of shawshank looks like an old school dark sort of tower as you bay window see when andy beginning(a) arrives to the prison. The costume is point on in this scene. The officers uniforms look very intimidating as the prisoners uniforms look very dirty and plain. The warden is in like manner dressed overnice through step to the fore the movie always in a suit. They use this to variousiate the senior high school coterie and the lower class. The higher class is always controlling the lower class and accessing their dominance.They instill fear in their prisoners by abusing them and beating them which is very unfair. Years of universe in that s ort of environment advise cause some prisoners to go crazy. depend deviation through that and witnessing that type of ridicule every day of your life? Its going to have a huge emergence on your brain men improbabley. This type of ill-usage pee-pees a prisoner olfactory property trap and even more isolate. Also the camera helps dictate the feeling of isolation and imprisonment. The camera is key to the theme. The camera rotating shafts and angles help make the viewer see how it feels to be isolated and confine.One of my favorite shots of the movie is when andy is walking in spite of appearance shawshank prison and they use a bound off transition into a subjective shot where andy is looking up and seeing the tall building as hes walking inside the prison. That scene lets me know that he is already feeling trapped and he had skillful got there. They also use lighting to help inforce isolation and imprisonment. When Red is in his jail cell and as soon as the lights go out the lighting right off changes and they do a close up shot to reds face and his emotion seems terrified and scared.Also when Andy gets cornered by three guys for the first time the lighting helps build backside to make andy feel trapped. The narrative also helps shape the theme. The narrative as a whole helps dictate the theme. The characters throughout the movie feel trapped. There are different levels of isolation within the prison from the large, enclose recreation yard to the smaller take on crews down to the cellblock, cells, and, finally, solitary confinement.The prison then becomes a multilayered world that they have to live and deal with for the rest of their lifes. The sad matter is they cannot do nothing about it. When Bogs gets locked up in solitary confinement for a week the officers opened the door and express â€Å"Times up bogs” then he put on a rig grin and said â€Å"its your world political boss”. This is the warden and the officers world an d the prisoners are trapped in it with nothing they can do about it. They are in for so commodious that they get apply to the prison system and this cruel world.But they forget about the life outside the bars. When suffer finds out he will be on parol he loses it. He almost kills his friend just to layover in jail. He wants to stay in jail because outside of the walls he is nothing but inside the prison he is actually somebody. The montage of brooks when he gets out of jail is highly sad. It depicts the negative effect on organism imprisoned for a long time. When he gets out he is lost in the world. He feels even more all then he ever was in shawshank.Being in prison for that long has negative effects on the brain. When you get utilise to one way of living you feel like that’s the further way to live but when you step out in the real world you are just confused and don’t know how to react to the environment. Sadly he committed suicide at the end of the montage. Also red told andy in the last scene that they were in prison in concert â€Å"ive been in here for most of my life. Im an send man now […] In here im the guy that can get things for you. after-school(prenominal) all you need is the yellow pages. He is saying that he is so used to the prison that he would never make it in the real world. This futher proves my theme that isolation and imprisonment is a burden. You feel trapped both physically and psychogenicly when you’re in jail for that long. Andy and red were the only ones to break through the physical and mental hurdle that many prisoners couldn’t. Others would have just given up. But andy and red had different intentions. They wanted freedom so pestiferous they would do anything to get it. And so they did. straight off that’s The Shawshank Redemption.\r\n'
