2. Andy's cellmate, Morgan Feynman, was sentenced to life imprisonment;

5. A young cellmate (Andy can be an innocent witness and then he is killed by the warden)

6. Other prisoners

The young banker was convicted of murdering his wife and sent to Shawshank prison in the United States for life imprisonment. He looks weak on the outside, but he is strong on the inside. He decided to leave here from the day he went to prison.

In prison, he met Morgan Feynman who was sentenced to life imprisonment for manslaughter, and they soon became good friends. Shawshank prison was the darkest prison at that time, and the point warden used criminals as coolies to make a lot of benefits for himself. Prison guards indiscriminately punish prisoners and even beat them to death!

Faced with such an environment, he didn't give up on himself. He runs a prison library, plays wonderful music for prisoners, and uses his knowledge to help everyone manage their own finances. The warden soon discovered his specialty and asked him to help launder money and make false accounts.

In the dark life of prison, he never gave up the pursuit of freedom and a better life, and he wanted to redeem himself with his own practical actions!

The Shawshank Redemption is definitely one of the best classic films in the 1990s, no matter from the screenwriter, director or every actor's performance! Highly recommended!
