《肖申克的救赎》英文观后感合集19篇

Mike ODonnells wife wants a divorce, his kids are remote, he didnt get the job promotion he expected, and everything else in his life has gone wrong since that magic year when he was 17, a basketball star, in love, and looked like Zac Efron instead of Matthew Perry. Hes obviously a case for treatment by a Body Swap Movie.Revisiting the trophy case at his old high school, Mike encounters a janitor who, from the way he smiles at the camera, knows things beyond this mortal coil. If only Mike could go back to 17 and not make all the same mistakes. In "17 Again," he can. He falls into a Twilight Zone vortex and emerges as Zac Efron. They say be careful what you wish for, because you might get it. Mike should have been more specific. Instead of wishing to be 17 again, he should have wished to go back 20 years in time.Yes, he becomes himself trapped inside his own 17-year-old body.

I attended a screening held by a radio station, which attracted mainly teenage girls who left their boyfriends behind. When Zac Efron took off his T-shirt, the four in front of me squealed as if there were buzzers in their seats. Now that hes a little older, Efron has a Tom Cruiseish charm, and a lot of confidence. Why Matthew Perry was cast as his adult self is hard to figure; does your head change its shape in 20 years?

曾经很久以前就听过《肖申克的救赎》这部电影，不过一直也没有去看，因为在潜意识里觉得不会好看。不过，在看完以后，我会觉得这是一部很值得欣赏的电影，特别是对于我们这些年轻的80后，90后。它带给我们很多的启示，同时也鼓励着我们前进。

安迪，这部电影的主人公，曾经是一个出色的银行家，有一个漂亮的妻子，可是，因为不会表达对妻子的爱，妻子有了外遇。在酒醉后误被指控用枪杀死了妻子和她的情人，安迪被判无期徒刑，这意味着他将在肖申克监狱中渡过余生。我在看到肖申克监狱里的景象以及那里的犯人的时候，我想安迪要怎样度那些漫长而痛苦的日子呢?由原本风光体面的生活到肖申克的监狱，他的生活就像从一个天堂进入了地狱。我会在想他会不会自杀呢?因为他出奇的冷静。直至后来才知道，他从来没有放弃过自己，尽管所有的人都不相信他是被冤枉的，尽管要面对的是痛苦的监狱生涯。那个进来第一夜就被打死的胖子和安迪就是一个鲜明的对比，胖子犯了罪，安迪没有犯罪;胖子来到肖申克监狱是应的惩罚，安迪是替罪的;胖子无法适应另一种生活，安迪选择了快速适应新的环境;胖子大吵大闹，安迪沉着冷静：最后，胖子死在了肖申克的监狱，而安迪却最终把自己从这个地狱救赎出来了。无疑，安迪是一个聪明的人，他选择了活下来就是为了有一天可以走出去。他善于利用自己的专业知识，来搞好人际关系，无论是与典狱长，看守，还是周围的罪犯们，他都懂得如何去赢得他们的信任，因此，他可以在监狱里过的比别人自由。这也是我们应该学习的，要懂得怎样去和一些很可能是你的敌人的人交往，让他们成为你的朋友。要学习怎样去赢得别人的信任。但是我们不能学的是他为典狱长洗黑钱这样的手段，当然，他也在肖申克的监狱用了20年的时间去赎罪了。我们应该用正确的方法去赢得别人的信任。

在肖申克的监狱里，大多的人都失去了人生的目标，失去了希望。他们被那些“叫你吃就吃，叫你拉就拉”的规矩制度化了，他们的思想被束缚住了，可怜，他们连心的自由都没有了。可是，安迪没有，他没有让那些规条束缚住自己的心。他依然有自己的爱好和理想，所以他还会有闲适的心去雕刻石头，去建立图书馆，去帮助那些囚犯找回自己。瑞德说：“希望是危险的东西，是精神苦闷的根源”而安迪说：“希望是好事，甚至也许是人间至善，因为美好的事永不消失”他就这样怀着坚定的信念和对世间美好事物的希望，在监狱中那度日如年的生活中找到方向，找到了救赎自己的办法。而博斯，那个年老的监狱管理员，就因为几十年来的制度化生活让他在离开监狱后迷失了自己，对生活失去了希望，最后在小旅馆里自杀。如果不是安迪一直在鼓励着，在经历过40年的监狱生活的瑞德或许也会走上博斯的路。安迪说“人生只有两种选择，要不是忙着生活，要不是忙着死亡”这是一种信念。很多时候我们也会像博斯，像瑞德，在不断的挫折失败后，我们就变得安于现实，安于失败的困境里，不愿意走出来，失去了希望。人生最可怕的不是失败，最可怕的是失去再来一次的勇气和希望。

在后来，剧情峰回路转，安迪的徒弟知道他是被冤枉的，他知道真正的凶手不是安迪。就在安迪兴奋不已，以为自己终于有救的时候，他忘了，自己已经是典狱长的赚钱工具了，典狱长又怎么会放他走呢?在他关禁闭的时候，残忍的典狱长把他的徒弟偷偷地杀了，然后欺骗他说他徒弟是越狱不成被杀的。但是那时的安迪已经不再相信他的话了，于是，他打算自己救自己——越狱，带着典狱长的罪证越狱。这也是对自己犯罪的一种救赎。影片之所以在后来给了安迪自由人的身份，就是因为安迪已经为自己的行为受到了惩罚，坐了二十年的牢。这二十年并不是冤狱----安迪自己也这样认为---他已经为罪行受到了惩罚。所以，尽管安迪的越狱依旧是一种犯罪，但是他还是获得了自由。片子教育我们在人生道路上我们都可能有过错，但是当过错罪不至死时，我们要身体力行并从良心上进行忏悔，但是一定不要放弃希望，要努力的解救自己，从希望中得到力量，从而走向光明!

在这部片里有提到过关于《圣经》，典狱长曾经引用过圣经里的话语，但是，毫无疑问他只是一个伪基督徒，他是借基督之名行魔鬼的事。但是他说过一句话是对的“你们得救的道就在里面了”真正的救赎不是肉体的救赎，而是灵魂的救赎，而这个只有上帝才可以做的。

其实我们的社会现实中也有这样的事情发生，一些囚犯在走出监狱后，得不到妥善的安排，社会对其又歧视和不尊重，导致他们失去了面对世界面对生活的勇气和希望，因此很多人再次放弃了自己，有的是不断地在犯罪，为了生活;有的在犯罪是为了回到监狱中;更甚的是，一些人彻底对世界绝望，选择死亡。这都是为什么?当然他们自己也有责任，因为没有学会坚守自己的信念，但更多的是因为社会，没有愿意再给他们一次机会。所以我们更应该反省一下现在的社会行为，是否公平。

我想，就算是一个犯人他都会有自己的自尊。也会有平等对待的权利。所以何不用爱和宽容来接纳他们呢?每个人都有自己犯罪的原因，无论知不值得同情，我们都要相信人心灵深处的那点的善良和真挚。走进一个人的故事的时候，你可能会找到原谅他的理由，可是很多时候我们只是他们的旁观者，但是我们可以学着去用爱心接纳和相信他们。

《肖申克的救赎》给了我很多的感想，它给我最大的感想是相信希望，持守信念，努力行动!

还记得安迪给瑞德的信的最后一句吗?“既然你都走了那么远了，那也许你能再走远一点!”所以不要轻易绝望，自己已经走到今天了，就要咬咬牙再走远一点，或许你会看到不一样的风景，加油!

Unusually intelligent Jim Carrey movie - a provocative and prescient media satire. Puts Big Brother and the current spate of docu-soaps firmly into perspective Truman Burbank (Carrey) is a happily married insurance salesman living a normal life in a small American town so perfect that he has never felt the need or desire to leave it. He has a loving wife (Linney), and a loyal best buddy (Emmerich). Life is good until one morning a stage light drops from the skies and shatters on the ground perilously close to him. It is the trigger that sets him questioning everything around him. What is behind the facades of the buildings he has never entered? Why do people seem to be travelling around him in a perfectly synchronized loop? What is going on outside his home-town? Truman is, it turns out, the unwitting star of a top-rated 24-hour-a-day TV docu-soap. Under the careful critical scrutiny to which it has been subjected, the plot turns out not to be watertight. This is to miss the point of what is a hilarious and breathtakingly conceived satire which also allows Carrey to edge away from broad comedy. The Truman Show is also oddly moving and has, as you would expect from a Weir film, a pronounced metaphysical slant with Ed Harris playing the shows archly named producer/creator Christof. Verdict One of the cinematic highlights of the 1990s, The Truman Show is up there with Weirs very best work.

Life is like a box of chocolates

-----The review of Forrest Gump

Forrest Gump is a famous film which won a high reputation , it’s tell us a story of a low IQ boy’s unexpected and legendary life. In the film, Forrest’s IQ only had 75 lower than normal people, but he graduated from the university,participated in the Vietnam War, took part in Table Tennis Competition in China as diplomatic envoy, became a millionaire...

“If God intended everybody to be the same, hed have given us all braces on our legs. “ God is so fair. Forrest met lots of accidents and every accident fortunately achieve him. I think nothing is predestined except death. Just like Gumps mother did not know that she will be his mother,just like Forrest did not know that God gave him only 75 IQ,just like Lt. Dan Taylor did not know he had to endure the pain of losing legs...

Tom Hanks who played Forrest Gump said “our destiny is only defined by how we deal with the chance element to our life.” When we face our life,maybe we should have this preparation---“Life is like a box of chocolates. You never know what youre going to get.”

还是一贯的梦工场的高水准，画面精致细腻，人物生动传神，故事情节曲折动人，最重要的是它以最简单易解的方式说明白了一个道理，那就是——世界上没有任何捷径和秘籍，唯一的制胜法门就是相信自己。

不想再说更多的剧情，因为它真的很出色。看的过程中，频频出现人们会意的笑声，整个氛围相当的轻松和惬意。这个片子做得非常地道，一点儿也没有是由西方人演绎的感觉，不论是故事还是其中传达的意境，不论是画面还是其中的细节，都是东方式的;唯一特别的可能就是出现的现代的口语，比如ok之类的。

When it comes to spy thrillers, Tony Gilroy knows the game. The formula for a crackling entry into this genre is simple enough: keep the action moving and the twists coming, then engage in one late innings sleight of hand that pulls the rug out from under everything. Gilroy, with an adroitness Hitchcock might admire, works admirably in this arena, turning in a screenplay thats more diabolical and pulpy than his convoluted directorial debut, Michael Clayton, but no less fun. He maximizes his assets, and considering the wattage of his stars, they are considerable. Although one could not consider the plot for Duplicity to be air-tight, the holes are small enough for things to remain afloat until after the proceedings have ended. A post-movie dissection on the way home in the car will reveal some obvious plotting problems.

Can Hollywood, usually creating things for entertainment purposes only, create art? To create something of this nature, a director must approach it in a most meticulous manner, due to the delicacy of the process. Such a daunting task requires an extremely capable artist with an undeniable managerial capacity and an acutely developed awareness of each element of art in their films, the most prominent; music, visuals, script, and acting. These elements, each equally important, must succeed independently, yet still form a harmonious union, because this mixture determines the fate of the artists opus. Though already well known amongst his colleagues for his notable skills at writing and directing, Frank Darabont emerges with his feature film directorial debut, The Shawshank Redemption. Proving himself already a master of the craft, Darabont managed to create one of the most recognizable independent releases in the history of Hollywood. The Shawshank Redemption defines a genre, defies the odds, compels the emotions, and brings an era of artistically influential films back to Hollywood.

The story begins with the trial of a young banker, Andy Dufrense, victimized by circumstantial evidence, resulting in a conviction for the murder of his wife and her lover. After a quick conviction, Andy finds himself serving a life sentence at Shawshank prison, with no hope of parole. He exists in this prison only in appearance, keeping his mind free from the drab walls around him. His ability to do this results in the gaining of respect from his fellow inmates, but most of all from Ellis Redding. Ellis, commonly referred to as Red, finds gainful use of his entrepreneurial spirit within the drab walls of Shawshank by dealing in contraband and commodities rare to the confines of prison. Andys demeanor and undeniable sense of hope causes Red to take a deeper look at himself, and the world around him. Andy proves to Red and the other inmates that in the conventional walls of Shawshank prison convention will find no home in his lifestyle.

By creating the films firm foundation, the meticulously chiseled screenplay paved the way for this films success. Frank Darabont outdoes himself with the phenomenal adaptation of Stephen Kings equally noteworthy novella, Rita Hayworth and Shawshank Redemption. In this novella, King demonstrates that he can break free from the genre he dominates and still create a marvelous piece of modern literature. Though the film mirrors the novella in many ways, Darabont illustrates a focused objective of improving upon the areas where the novella came up short, resulting in one of the best book to film transitions ever.

While maintaining some of the poetic and moving dialogue of the novella, Darabont also proves that a films score can generate a great deal of emotional response from its audience, as dialogue does. He employs the cunning Thomas Newman, son of the legendary Hollywood composer, Alfred Newman. Darabont shows recognition for the films needs by employing Newman, who makes the gentle piano chords whisper softly to the viewer, as if a part of the scripted dialogue. Newman lends himself to individualism and tends to drive more towards the unique in the realm of score composition. His effort in Shawshank did not go unnoticed, as his score received an Oscar nomination in 1995. While unique and independent, Newmans score never once intrudes on your concentration or distracts from the film.

With work from vast array of talented scene designers, costume designers, composers, cinematographers, and various other Hollywood artists, the cast of The Shawshank Redemption had a strong foundation to work with. The marvelous cast of this film will dazzle you with some of the most convincing performances you will witness in a film. While both Tim Robbins and Morgan Freeman shine as Andy and Red, respectively, the true spectacle of acting lies within the plethora of amazing supporting actors who easily disappear into their roles. Most noticeable of these, the veteran film star James Whitmore, who portrays the elderly Brooks Hatlen. Brooks, a man incarcerated for an unmentioned crime for so long that he finds himself attached to the Shawshank and the daily life he has lead. Each of these actors show a true dedication to their art, and a focused purpose in their motivations, creating a convincing setting that never once caters to anything unbelievable.

With all of the aesthetic touches and attention to cinematic detail, the most beautiful part of the film lies within its thematic material, such as its focus on the human desires for the most abstract concepts, like hope and freedom. These themes, which concern things the human spirit undoubtedly yearns for, seem so intricately woven into the plot that it easily draws its audience in to its story. Though full of hardened criminals, your heart will go out to these men as they display the most basic of human emotions, and deliver some of the most quotable lines in a film to date. Like a great novel, this film manages to succeed at greater things than simply entertaining an audience. Darabont tells his story most masterfully, illustrating principles and inspiring his audience to think. He leaves us a poignant film with a powerful message of hope, and redemption, something we all seek.

This film manages to redeem Hollywood in the eyes of people who feared it long lost in a dark sea of clichés and predictability. Darabont shows us that artists still work in the Hollywood studios and production facilities. These artists show their capability to produce art; real art that inspires you to look at the deeper aspects of life and the world around you. The Shawshank Redemption delivers much-needed breath of fresh air for anyone who realizes the capability of film. It proves that masters of the craft still live on this earth, and still bless us with timeless masterpieces that we will never forget.

After Viewing Impressions about Travel Notes of A f Fying House

Last Sunday , I saw a movie named Travel notes of a flying house.This movie is very interesting and I like it very much.

The movie mainly talked about that a little boy with a flying dream grew with a little girl with the same dream,and then they got married,grow old together. Until the hostess Eli dead, didnt they finish the flying dream of wonderland waterfall. Finally one day, the 78 years old’s Mr Carr built a flying home, flew away to the fairyland waterfall, and there occurred many amazing and moving stories.

The film, tells me three truth. First of all, people should have a dream and pursuit.Only in this way will you have spirit,as for the single-minded pursuit of dreams and perseverance, then do you have a fight. Secondly, the difficulties are not invincible, but you have not the courage to face, to challenge.I believe that as long as face them bravely, you will be able to get victory and successful.

Finally, there is nothing more powerful than the power of love.when are we in the most difficult time, only the family, let us all unite with each other, let us be fearless, and so as to win.

当我看完《肖申克的救赎》时，我体会到了这一切，监狱中生活绝对没有乐趣可言，更加染不上什么希望，在绝望中找希望更是困难。人们总说不要和命运抗争，可是 当安迪战胜命运的时候，我们也可以说这种胜利恰恰是命运的一部分。

《肖申克的救赎》是一部拍摄于1994年的经典，故事发生在1947年，讲的是一个银行家安迪因为妻子有婚外情，酒醉后误指控用枪杀死了她和她的情人，被判了无期徒刑，意味着他将在肖申克监狱中度过他的余生。该片透过监狱这个强制使人失去自由，高度强调纪律的特殊背景来展现作为个人的人对时间流逝、环境改造的恐惧。

所谓的救赎，并不是安迪本身，因为他不但拯救自己，也拯救了他的狱友。面对狱友的拯救体现在精神上的拯救，他让瑞德明白了追求自由和希望的可贵，这两个人，在安迪真正获得救赎的时候又走到了一起。

整部电影就是围绕三次就是而演。第一次安迪帮狱警逃税，为狱友赢得了每人三瓶啤酒;第二次，他在预警榜首播放《费加罗的婚礼》，展现音乐的美;而第三次，则是在狱中办起了图书馆，其经费是安迪以每个礼拜两封信向州长申请的，这是个划时代的胜利。

后来，出现了来一个扭转乾坤的年轻犯人，他知道关于安迪所犯案子的真凶，然而很不幸的，这个年轻人被杀害了。这时，瑞德以为安迪会在使我中选择自杀，恰好相反，真正想获得自由的人，会选择另一条路，一条通往自由的路。真凶自由应该也是本片所要表现的主旨之一。

安迪曾经对那个年轻人说过一句话，“人，不是忙着或，就是忙着死。”人生的不同境遇，在于人的选择，有时候是死亡，有时则是继续生存下去，当面对是绝望的时候，你会怎么选择，死亡还是生存下去?一个人能够在痛苦的监狱生活，不放弃对自由的向往，所以他成功了，获得了自由。

其实，认识本身就是一个鉴于，我们每个人都是被社会体制化的产物，它就是希望就在我们心里，放弃了希望，生活就是灰暗的，不要人文希望是痛苦的根源。记得《谁动了我的奶酪》书中一言：克服你内心的恐惧，改变你自己，释放你自己。

末了，我想对大家说，希望是个好东西，也许是世界上最好的东西，好东西从来不会流逝。

我去到一个黄金王国，钦博腊索山，科托帕克西山……

你牵着我的手，跨越奥里诺科河，越过火热的卡拉哈里沙漠，横过南非的蛮荒草原，经过旷野……

回到了家……”

金碧辉煌的音乐大厅，潮水般的狂欢，人群兴喜躁动的眼神

透过这一切，我看到你

站在十三岁的沙滩，我们牵着手，我们拥抱着彼此，我和你，曾靠得那么近

为了靠近你，我放弃了一切;为了靠近你，我深深地伤害你;为了靠近你，我终于失去了自己

天空很低，很蓝，海天交接的地方，像镀金的奶油，甜腻腻的

潮湿的沙滩，因着海水显得格外的柔软

悲伤的大提琴，和着海风，将你的轮廓一遍遍勾勒

其实，我一直如此深刻的爱着你，如此脆弱而倔强的爱着你

《肖申克的救赎》，这部拍摄于1994年的电影，历经十几年的时光却始终闪烁着无尽的魅力。想念电影最后那片蔚蓝的海面，平静而辽阔，亦如安迪的内心。片中那些黑色压抑的画面最后都消融于无垠的海域里，给人以豁然开朗的感觉。心里的梦想和希望在经历挫折和痛苦之后化为写在笑容里的完美现实。影片传递给人的是一种近乎倔强的对希望和自由的坚持，经得起时光雕琢的不屈的信念。细看电影，你会发现电影中有很多东西是值得深思和学习的。

肖申克，并非人名，而是一个监狱，一个原本用来让人改过自新的地方。在这里，所有的囚犯无论吃饭、睡觉、甚至是上厕所都得报告，最终在肉体和心灵的双重摧残下成为失去灵魂的行尸走肉。长久的习惯在这里演化成可怕的悲剧，每天一成不变的生活磨蚀着他们对于未来的憧憬。没有希望、没有自由、没有尊严，仿佛生命的价值在这里已经消亡殆尽。正如瑞德所说：“刚进入监狱时，你痛恨周围的高墙;慢慢地，你习惯了生活在其中;最终你会发现自己不得不依靠它生存。”显然，在这部电影里，监狱已被赋予了更深层次的含义。

老布，一个已在监狱里度过了半个世纪的七旬老人。对他而言，管理监狱里那个狭小的图书馆已然成了他生活的全部。在这里，他可以凭借自己受到过的教育赢得一点点其他犯人的尊重。某一天，他突然被告知自己获得了假释，恐惧开始占据他早已干枯的心灵。半个世纪的铁窗生涯将他对自由的渴望冲刷的一干二净，剩下的只是老朽的躯壳和束缚了的灵魂。像笼中的鸟儿被关的太久之后已失去了飞翔的能力一样，老布已没有了在社会上生存的能力，因此不可避免地被社会淘汰了。

事实上，老布也曾尝试着融入社会，可是五十年的距离成了不可逾越的障碍。老去的躯体连同老去的心最终一起结束在昏暗狭小的屋子里，留下的仅是那几个歪歪斜斜的字：Brookswashere。写完这些字，他默默地笑了然后从容地结束了生命。在他看来，那些字让他的死有了些许的尊严和价值。

老布的悲剧让人心痛，也让我想到了现实生活中很多发生在大学生身上的悲剧。面对巨大的就业的压力而不知所措的学生们，不正像老布一样对外面的世界存在强烈的恐惧感吗?电影里，瑞德认为老布的悲剧是因为体制化，并觉得自己，甚至是整个监狱，都正在沦为体制化的牺牲品。那么从现实来看，一些心理素质不强的学生也正在演绎着同样的悲剧。有些学生在学校里待了太久，进入社会后，像老布一样，因为缺乏生存的能力而得不到社会的认可。在经历挫折之后，就不堪重负而了断自己年轻的生命。不同的是，老布是因为太老而无能为力，而他们还没来得及领悟生命的价值就因为太脆弱而过早地埋葬了自己。那么究竟如何才能应对这样的压力，寻获属于心灵的自由呢?电影告诉我们的恰是如何进行这样的一场心灵救赎。

安迪本是一个年轻而有前途的银行家，可是一夜之间他被控告杀害妻子和情夫而锒铛入狱。事实上，安迪是被冤枉的，杀人凶手另有其人。可是，有时候生活中总会有不公平的事情发生。安迪最终被判两个无期徒刑，进入了肖申克的高墙之内。这里等待他的除了严酷的管理体制，还有来自“三姐妹”的肉体折磨。遇上这样的事情，谁都会失去理智，然而安迪却例外。安迪从不抱怨生活的不公，只是默默地努力去把握住自己的命运。冷静、勇敢、顽强、从不放弃用智慧来进行反抗，这正是安迪的不同之处，也正是我们面对困难和挫折时所缺乏的。面对困难，我们总是过于浮躁，急着去抱怨而不是去思考;总是过于怯懦，急着逃避而不是去面对。

当所有的人，包括瑞德认为安迪快被体制化压垮的时候，安迪在一个暴雨滂沱的夜晚爬过500码的充斥着恶臭的管道后寻获了属于他的自由。事实上，安迪始终是自由的，即使他被困在高墙垒起的监狱。正如他所说的：莫扎特的音乐在我的心里，谁也夺不走。是的，谁也夺不走我们坚定的信念和对自由的希望，心灵的自由能够带来生命的奇迹。6年，每周一封信，最终令50年不曾改变的图书馆开始有了改变。他改为每周写两封信，这样的坚持使得图书馆的规模不断扩大，最终成为新英格兰最棒的监狱图书馆。20年的时间，一把石锤，坚韧的毅力，最后缔造出一条瑞德认为要600年才能凿出的通往自由的道路。

而现实中，我们内心的希望往往被轻易地埋葬在那些平凡的挫折里。我们惧怕失败，也正是因为我们对梦想和希望的追求不够执着。也正是因为这样，我们的心灵才容易被束缚，甚至脆弱到不堪一击。因此，很多人才惧怕走出学校来到社会。倘若我们能像安迪那样，冷静下来，用理性来看待问题、用智慧来解决问题、用执着来战胜挫折，那些希望和梦想也就不会离我们而去。

当然，安迪的成功远不止因为这些。过人的才华使得他在监狱里也能绽放光芒，但这并不是他成功的真正原因。老布在监狱享有对书籍的管理权;而瑞德则能够帮其他囚犯弄到任何他们想要的东西。但他们都有点沉醉于这一点权利带给他们的满足感。安迪在监狱的地位显然还要高的多，但他始终明白这些都不是真正的自由：正真的自由是在外面的世界。他能够真切地看清自己所处的位置，始终坚定地朝着自己的目标努力，并不因暂时的成功而停滞不前。

这一点，对我们而言是极其重要的。我们中的许多人，因在学校里担任了某个职务而沾沾自喜，自视甚高。暂时的满足感阻碍了他们对生活的进一步思考和追求。到了社会中，这种潜在的骄傲情绪让他们屡屡受挫，压抑和失望随之占据心灵，也让他们离成功越来越远。事实上，我们生命的价值最终只有在社会中才能得到真正的体现。理性地对待自己学校里表现，能够帮助我们看清自己在社会中的位置，从而更合理地看待自己。

安迪在监狱中成功地完成了自我救赎。入狱前，他是一个不善于表达情感的人。没有朋友，甚至，连自己深爱的妻子也背叛了他。而在狱中，他收获了瑞德的友情，同时也学会了分享，学会了沟通和交流。在分享中，他也试图让对自由和希望的渴望重新回到狱友们的心中，救赎他们的心灵。初春的早晨，狱友们能够像在修葺自家的屋顶一样，坐在暖暖的阳光下享受着安迪争取到的冰啤酒。这种久违的自由的感觉再一次回到了狱友们的心头，那么真切、那么美好。安迪私自在狱警的办公室播放《费加罗的婚礼》，再次给狱友们带来哪怕是一瞬间的自由的感觉。音乐里的激情刺激着狱友们原本干涸的心灵。而图书馆的落成，更让狱友们见证了希望是能够在不懈的坚持下带来成功的。自然，对自由的希望也不再仅仅是一种幻想。无论何时，友谊都对我们的生活有着重要的作用。人是社会中的人，始终需要交流和沟通。珍贵的友谊是人格魅力的一种体现，也能帮助我们获得社会认同感，加强我们对生活的信心。而同时你也会发现自己身上的优点正在向他人传递开来，自己的价值也能得到进一步的体现。尊严，并不是自己刻个字就能获得的，而是存在于大家对你的认同感中。

如何获得心灵的救赎，寻求属于自己的梦想和希望?我想电影已向我们给出了十分完美的答案。社会和体制化其实都并不可怕，可怕的是我们内心无法克制的恐惧和对生命价值的轻视，这也正是我们需要获得救赎的地方。电影却坚定地告诉我们：生命的尊严和价值，不是别人给的，而是靠自己的执着和智慧在挫折和压力下一点一点争取来的。

最初听到《肖申克的救赎》这个片名，以为肖申克是个人名。实际肖申克不是这部片子中两个男主人公的任何一个，它是一个地名，即 "鲨堡监狱"。这个监狱，是座人间炼狱，不仅是因为它那里狱卒残暴、狱霸横行，而且是因为它对人的精神的折磨。在那种漫漫无期的禁锢中消磨生命，似乎只有全部放弃希望，变成行尸走肉才能生存下来。但在《肖申克的救赎中》有一次精彩的对话，当安迪说出“希望”这个字眼时候，瑞得说了这样一句话：希望?听我说一句，老朋友，希望是很危险的，它会让你发疯，在这种地方，千万不要有这种念头。这是对困于肖申克的一种提醒，因为他们已经是被制度化了。什么是制度化?又是瑞得来解释：刚入狱的时候，你痛恨周围的高墙;慢慢的，你习惯生活在其中;最终你会发现自己不得不依靠它而生存。那就是制度化。那个在肖申克当了50年的图书管理员，当得知自己被假释时，却是要将与他告别的人杀死以继续留在这里，最终上吊，这就是制度化的悲哀。

老师从刚毕业踏上讲台，可以说就是被制度化的，换一个词说就是被格式化了。慢慢被消掉自己的棱角，慢慢适应着制度，慢慢习惯，一眼望去，有多少张麻木而绝望的脸在校园里耕耘，那么刺眼而又无动于衷，你是否已然处于“沉睡”状态。唤醒你内心的，那个叫做希望的东西呢?希望总是要付诸于行动中的，否则是空谈。有了希望，肖申克监狱不过是一座形同虚设的监狱，有了希望，一把小小的锤子，一张大海报，便可以救赎生命，可以救赎自由。有了希望安迪可以在救赎自己的过程中尽情的享受每一个小小的乐趣，并将这乐趣传播开来，将希望播种在每个人心里。

安迪管理图书馆，要改变现状，每周一封写信，终于有回应，然后每周两封，终于有州政府支持，得到稳妥支金;他用一把小锤子，一张海报，用了20年的时光，给自己叩开走出肖申克，通往自由的路，他赢得了自由。

教师在成长行动中还需要考虑的方法和应遵循的原则。凡事都不可蛮干，这是真理。安迪的行动无不充满着策略性，随身带500美元去申肖克，为自己购置所需要的物品，包括海报和铁锤，冷静地用专业分析逃税帮工友讨啤酒，渐渐成为狱警的会计师，从体力劳动转向脑力劳动，成为诺顿的洗钱的助手后，虚构人物转账，继而在越狱后扳倒了他。

有志者，事竞成，这是我们常挂嘴边的一句话。但事实上正如书中所言，我们教师缺乏的不是“志”，而是“常志”，所有光有“志”是不一定“事竟成”的。安迪坚持了20年，我们又能为自己的目标坚持几年?

作为老师，在自己的专业成长上，永远都不能带有功力性质的。你要做的是教好孩子，努力让她们快乐学习，快乐地拿到好成绩，这才是你的目标。

让我们救赎自己，快快逃出“肖申克”吧!不要让自己格式化在自己的囚笼里。

要相信未来，那样一来，春天一定会降临。

——Naruto

Naruto说的这句话，便是我对《肖申克的救赎》最深的感触。肖申克是一座监狱，站在它的最顶端，你看的是一个超出你想象的奇迹。整座监狱像一棵被施了魔法的参天大树，疯狂地朝着宇宙生长，刺穿越来越薄的天。

就在这样一座监狱里，关押着许许多多的人。瑞德说这里所有人都是无辜的。是不是无辜我无从查起，不过有一个人我们知道他确实无辜。他就是安迪·杜方。

安迪是某个银行的副总裁，他完全可以享受用别人一个月的工资去买一个杯子的人生，甚至比这种物质人生更“高级”。但是因为他的妻子和他妻子的情夫的死因和他脱不了干系，而他的律师又很无能，所以安迪一下子从光明大道上跌进了黑暗的深渊。

在肖申克监狱里，安迪感受到的是从地壳深处翻涌上来的黑暗气息。那些长满尖刺的黑色人群，一瞬间牢牢地包裹住了安迪，然后肆无忌惮的吞噬开始了。典狱长的贪婪、警官的暴力、狱霸的殴打，让原本就委屈的安迪更委屈。所幸的是安迪在心底埋藏着一颗希望的种子，就是这颗毫不起眼的无形的种子，让安迪在救赎自己的过程中享受着憧憬的味道。

他冒着生命危险给伙伴们换来了清凉可口的啤酒，于是有了一群囚徒坐在屋顶上，想象着那是自家的屋顶，在一个阳光早晨，大口大口地喝着啤酒。他还用关进“黑房”的代价为监狱所有人换来了片刻的自由，让他们忘记了高墙的束缚，让他们的心飞翔起来，当意大利女人的歌声那么优雅地、嘹亮地飘荡在肖申克监狱的上空的时候，音乐一下子唤醒了在灰色地带所有人的梦想。

安迪两次冒着生命危险做这些，只是为了找到做人的感觉。在肖申克监狱里，自由只是一种奢望，只是一个遥不可及的梦想，有的人甚至想都没有想过“自由”这个词。然而安迪他不只想了，他还做了。我想起了路遥的《在困难的日子里》的这样一段话，我觉得用来形容此刻的安迪也不错，虽然他常常面对的是黑暗的监狱，常常躺着的是监狱的囚笼：“我常常在黄昏里，面对白皑皑的山峦，不由自主地微笑;或者故意在村前小河积雪的冰面上徘徊，好让自己在不知不觉中滑倒，陶醉在一种难言的舒服之中……”

漫长的等待，无尽的煎熬，还有坚持的心，安迪，用这些换来了肖申克监狱一座史无前例的图书馆，我清楚地记得安迪说一个人不能让心灵空虚，虽然他是用英文。

我常想，空虚就像一张纸，等待落笔时的心情。一个人心灵空虚了，那么他为之失望的、雀跃的、激动的、悲痛的、感动的、憎恨的、惆怅的，都不知道是什么了吧?

安迪在教一位小伙子读书的时候说过这样一句话：“我从不在失败者身上浪费时间。”它让我想到了《冬日最灿烂的阳光》里瞳说的“我从不把时间浪费在无用的东西上”。无论是安迪还是瞳，他们都懂得有价值地利用时间，如果我能像他们一样做到这一点，那该多好哇!这样，我就可以告别那颗放荡不羁的心，告别那片幻想森林，告别许许多多杂乱无章的东西，然后一心一意地学习，一步一步拉近梦想和现实的差距。如果真能这样，那该多好啊!

肖申克监狱里无休止的黑暗，像疯狂生长的食人花一样吞噬着这个坟墓般的世界。禁锢，疼痛，却浇不灭安迪心中发芽的希望。小小的锤子，一张偌大的海报，加上安迪自身渊博的地质学知识和聪明的头脑，他抱着信念，终于在一个雷电交加的夜晚逃出了肖申克监狱。

自由了!终于自由了!安迪张开双臂，拥抱着他渴望了十九年的自由，那一刻，所有的委屈，所有的疼痛，所有的煎熬，都在那个重获新生的夜晚云淡风轻了。他微笑着仰望星空，享受着风雨的洗礼，虽说是黑夜，但他依然可以看到遥远的天际有星星在闪烁。我知道那是安迪的梦想在燃烧。我突然想到了S，H，E的《星光》：“黑夜如果不黑暗，美梦又何必向往。破晓会是坚持的人最后获得的奖赏。黑夜如果太黑暗，我们就闭上眼看，希望若不熄灭就会亮成心中的星光。”

其实希望是任何黑暗都无法染指的，无论是什么都关不住希望，这个世界上只有希望才能穿透高墙。希望无处不在。

故事的结局是美好的，肖申克监狱彻底瓦解了，瑞德也出狱了。他原本打算和布鲁斯老头儿一样以自绝的方式离开这个纷繁的尘世，但是安迪给了他一颗希望的种子。希望，也是希望救赎了瑞德。

安迪和瑞德相拥在海边，蓝色天空下是蓝蓝的大海，自由、梦想和未来像天空和大海一样蓝。安迪曾深埋在心里的希望种子，盛开成了美丽的花朵……

When I first saw this movie I didnt appreciate it like I do now. Because I was so young that I didnt get the main idea when I first saw it. Just recently I saw the movie again. What an amazing and moving story. That movie teaches you so much about life and the meaning of it. That life isnt as bad as most people feel. Forrest Gump, the innocent man can impact so many lives with his innocence. The meaning of the movie to me is that everyone needs to have a better outlook on life. That we need to appreciate more of the little things and not let the big things hold us back. Although life may throw us trials and tribulations like a box of chocolates, we just have to bite into it and get through it even if we dont like it. I just love this movie. And anyone who hasnt seen it or who thinks that dont like it I seriously suggest seeing it or seeing it again. It truly is amazing…

说实话，我并不是一位影迷。可是当我偶尔看到《肖申克的救赎》后，就被它深深吸引了。影片的每一句台词、每一个镜头都是值得慢慢回味的。尽管影片的大部分场景只是在灰色基调的监狱里，可是你却丝毫感觉不到压抑，看《肖申克的救赎》就像听一位老朋友的娓娓诉说。或许是因为当前我的情绪多少有些低沉的缘故吧，我觉得《肖申克的救赎》就是一剂困境中的强心针。

由于典狱长利用安迪的知识和才能为他洗钱，那个杀死他妻子的真正凶手的出现也未曾给安迪带来一丝光明，那个可怜的孩子在典狱长与他在狱墙外的一次谈话后而永远的消失(越狱假象)，所以安迪注定是一辈子不能离开肖申克的。在我们看来安迪应该彻底绝望了，然而命运青睐有准备的人，一把藏在圣经里的岩石锤，一张挂在墙上足可以封住洞口的美女海报，再加上20年的时光(凿洞用了19年)，终于给了安迪自由。相信上帝，更相信自己，不放弃希望，不放弃努力，耐心地等待生命中属于自己的自由，这就是肖申克的救赎。安迪不仅救了自己，救了好友瑞德，也拯救了黑暗的美国司法。

以下仅谈谈看《肖申克的救赎》的几点体会：

1、环境改变人!

影片中有一句台词“体制化”。该片中被体制化的象征人物是监狱图书管理员老布，他被关押了50年，这几乎耗尽了他一生的光阴。然而，当他获知自己即将刑满释放时，精神近乎崩溃，他竟要制造一起“杀人”事件，因为他已经离不开这座监狱，他要继续留在肖申克。

监狱使他们完全有时间被环境所征服，老布成为环境的一部分，一旦脱离了原有的环境，一切失去了意义。他从内心深处依恋着那间剥夺了他的自由的监狱，所以在出狱后，完全迷茫了，他终于选择了自杀来寻求自己永远的宁静。

2、即便别人有错误，也要在自身找找原因

安迪的妻子背叛了他，难道都是妻子的错吗?安迪成功越狱后也不得不反思了自己，从某种程度讲，是他导演了这场悲剧，安迪不是直接的杀妻凶手，心理却背负着深深的愧疚，他先前在事业、后来在肖申克都是是成功者，然而他却是一个失败的婚姻经营者。

3、勿以貌取人。

安迪外表柔弱，以至于入狱第一夜劳瑞为他输掉了两包烟。当监狱上空飘着《费加罗的婚礼》的时候，所有犯人都惊呆了。最难忘是当狱友们在楼顶上喝着安迪用勇气和智慧换来的啤酒时，安迪倚着矮墙那一次难得的微笑，就如同刺破黑暗的一缕强光。这个世界终究是少数精英的世界。

就像片中那句脍炙人口的台词：有的鸟是不会被关住的，因为它们的羽毛太美丽了。几十年里，人们只有承受，当绝大多数囚徒早已麻木，慢慢失去了对自由的渴望的时候，可在安迪的内心世界一直坚守者自己最初的信念，那就是对自由生活的向往。偌大的肖申克，漫长的时光里，只有一个安迪改变了肖申克的世界。

4、不放弃，相信上帝更要相信自己

“希望是人最美好的东西，只要自己不放弃，希望就会永远相伴随。”

犯人走进肖申克，典狱长的第一句话就是：“把灵魂交给神，把身体交给我。”可是真正可怕的还不是肖申克的高墙，而是被犯人们被监狱的体制化所逐渐打磨掉的勇气与希望。

然而，当安迪冒着被看守长推下房顶的危险，用替警官逃税为伙伴换来啤酒时，当安迪坚持6年给政府写信终于迎来了肖申克的犯人图书馆和讲习班的时候，当监狱上空飘起莫扎特的《费加罗的婚礼》的时候，原因只有一个：无论我们曾经怎样的沉沦和不羁，怎样的失去光明，但千万不要放弃理想，放弃那份希望，人类追求自由与公正的脚步是无法阻止的。( 达星文学 w

A review of the Pursuit of Happiness

“The Pursuit of Happyness” was released on the 15th of December 2006. It is a dramatic story based on a biography of Chris Gardner’s nearly one-year struggle with homelessness. Directed by Gabrielle Muccino, the film stars Will Smith as Chris Gardner, and co-stars Jaden Smith playing Chris’ son, Christopher Jr. For Will Smith’s performance in the film, he was nominated for an Academy Award and a Golden Globe for Best Actor. The ‘different’ spelling of the title, ‘Happyness’ is seen by Chris Gardner on the building outside the play centre is son attends, which Chris reminds the owners of the building multiple times that it is spelt with an ‘I’.

The film shows us the struggles Chris Gardner has with homelessness. He is bankrupt because he invested his life savings in portable bone-density scanners, which he thought hospitals would be interested in buying, but in the end hardly any doctors wanted one, as they considered it an ‘expensive luxury’. During the struggles, his wife Linda leaves to go to New York and Chris and his son are left in San Francisco with no income and living in a motel. Chris sees interest in become a stockbroker, but to become one he has to go through an internship. Meanwhile, Chris and his son are evicted because they can’t pay rent, and they are forced to go to a homeless shelter, and even one night had to sleep in the bathroom of the underground rail system. During his internship, he never once mentions his financial struggles and at one point he is asked to give one of his bosses 5 dollars for a cab, a sum that he can’t afford. After an intense six months, Chris is taken into the bosses’ office, and is offered a job as a stockbroker, the final scene shows him being in unbelief of the position he was offered and showing his happiness and gratefulness for the opportunity, Chris realises that his financial struggles are over as he now has a job with a regular income.

Christ was unfortunate, for he got a wife who was not understandable at all (though she has her own difficulties) and was in bad luck with his business. But he was very fortunate also, for he got a son who was very thoughtful and, I think, tough life experiences always make a great person. It is said that this movie is inspired by a true story, and I want to say, this movie does inspire me a lot. What impressed me most are: Christ’s wife left him because of life pressure; Christ’s love to his son and Christ’s strong belief towards life. Through these, I know that it is not easy to be a good husband and a good Papa, since in reality, only love cannot only make everything. And I also learn that one has to strongly believe in himself, no matter how difficult the situation is, but of course, hard-working is indispensable.

Truman was a man, ordinary, like the life around us. He has many desires, and very easy to meet. Therefore, he sometimes ecstatic, sometimes Rusangkaobi, most of the time the loss depressed, overwhelmed. At this time, there has been a director of genius useless, and he constantly create new stimuli, so that he becomes ups and downs in the long drama, appetizing. Truman happy he would give him time to create some trouble, when in its depressed, then seize the opportunity to open it alive. He made such romantic novels as blonde suddenly appeared in the sight of Truman, his erotic valve open, letting her sudden departure, so the mind fall into a bottomless abyss; he had never met before to Truman "late father" suddenly appeared, to recognize exaggerated comic scenes make it in your eyes, but also make the TV viewing audience tears; he brought Trumans close friends in their emotional bad time to care for him, enlighten He, so that it felt the "Oasis in the Desert" and rebirth of confidence, although the friend is an actor, and is carrying a large segment of lines ... ...

Who admire the film brilliant and arrogant genius director, he leads people to think of God, also saw the weak, tired, helpless and confusion Truman was the hypocrisy of the play again, or for life and the future with optimism when the waves in my heart to sorrow and grief, I could not bear to face - can not bear to face a real "us"!

"Life is like a play, movie is like life," so lamented philosopher, but the actors on the stage of life - we, is not always an act of consciousness has it? Or deception and the arrangement of God, selflessly doing meaningless things? Happy, do not

Enough to make us love this world; setbacks, not enough to make us abandon this world. God is like the genius as a director, holds a very good degree, he knew that when a blow to us, when we gave a warm fire burned, he allows us to maintain hope in pain, in hope endure pain, the pain making the story as waves, but also making the ratings, the hope is to train and gave us the appearance fees, so we are not so half-way stop play.

The end of the movie, Truman is awake, and he told the camera, really the "God" strike played out. Panic talented director, he will lose the audience, he strove to retain Truman, the director told him to leave the control of the world is very dangerous, but Truman was out of that door, walks over to the dark unknown world, he said that the world waiting for him no matter what, he did not care. Buddhism, the "epiphany" one said, and that a complete self-sufficiency of human nature is dead in the dust covering it, it lost. Truman is the insight it seems, he should get back the lost self, the self-contained complete and carefree nature.

"Diamond Sutra" language: "Where all the phases are all false, if seen in the phase of non-relative, then see the Tathagata." Costume sooner or later to fade, set to be removed sooner or later, when the act is performed in a lively manner, but Do not forget to watch a movie than ever addiction, feel free to let another "I" - the I, off the stage, in the audience, sipping tea, take a look at the stage of "I" and "them", a few drum Under the palm, a few drops of tears flow, understand this, that will insight a. In fact, we not taken the door across what is the relationship? Because our hearts have been cross-out.

译文：

楚门是个普通人，普通得就像生活在我们身边。他有许多的欲望，又很容易满足。因此，他有时欣喜若狂，有时如丧考妣，大多的时候则彷徨郁闷，不知所措。这时，天才的导演又有了用武之地，他不断地制造新的刺激，使他的长剧变得波澜起伏，吊人胃口。他在楚门快乐的时候便给他制造些麻烦，在其沮丧的时候，则不失时机地给其开启一线生机。他让金发女郎如言情小说般突然出现在楚门的视线中，开启他爱欲的阀门，又让她突然离去，使其心灵坠入无底的深渊;他让楚门从未谋面的“已故父亲”突然现身，夸张滑稽的相认场面令其热泪盈眶，同时也赚取了电视观众的热泪;他又让楚门的知心朋友在其情绪恶劣的时候去关怀他、开导他，令其感受到这“荒漠中的甘泉”而重生信心，虽然那位朋友只是一个演员，而且正背着大段台词……

很佩服电影中那位才华横溢、不可一世的天才导演，他让人想到了上帝，同时看到那个软弱、疲惫、徨惑的楚门被一次次的虚伪所玩弄，还是对生活和前途充满了乐观时，我的内心就一阵阵地酸楚，我不忍面对——不忍面对一个真实的“我们”!

“人生如戏，戏如人生”，哲人如此感叹，但人生舞台上的演员——我们，是不是时刻都有一种演戏的自觉呢?还是在上帝的欺瞒和安排下，忘我地做着无意义的事呢?快乐，不

足以使我们热爱这个世界;挫折，不足以使我们抛弃这个世界。上帝就像那个天才的导演一样，掌握着很好的度，他知道该在何时给我们当头一棒，何时又给我们烧起暖暖的火炉，他使我们在痛苦中保持希望，在希望中忍受痛苦，因为痛苦制造着剧情的波澜，也制造着收视率，希望则是赏给我们的出场费，使我们不至于中途罢演。

电影的末尾，楚门是觉悟了的，他对着摄影机，真的向“上帝”罢演了。天才的导演恐慌了，他将失去观众，他竭力挽留楚门，告诉他离开了导演控制的世界是很危险的，但楚门还是走出了那扇门，走向那个黑漆漆的未知世界，他说不管那个世界中等待他的是什么，他都不在乎。佛家有“顿悟”一说，并说人的本性自足圆满，是人世的尘埃覆盖了它，使它迷失。看来楚门是顿悟了，他要找回那个失去的自我，那个自足圆满、自由自在的本性。

《金刚经》语：“凡所有相，皆是虚妄，若见诸相非相，则见如来。”戏装迟早要褪去，布景也迟早要撤下，演戏的时候则生龙活虎地演一场，只是别忘了过过看戏的瘾，随时让另一个“我”——本我，走下舞台，在观众席上，呷一口茶，看看戏台上的“我”和“他们”，鼓几下掌，流几滴泪，明白了这一点，便接近顿悟了。其实，我们跨不跨出那扇门又有什么关系?因为我们的心灵已经跨了出去。

周日中午没睡午觉，特意看了动画片《美人鱼公主》，相信这部动画片很多人都看过，因为它美丽，浪漫，充满了神秘的气息，而且制作精美，设计巧妙，又尤其美人鱼形象堪称一绝。

美丽的爱丽儿是一条可爱的小美人鱼，她一心向往人类世界，每天都想尽办法游出海面，企图能够接触人类。可是接触人类世界却是人鱼法律所禁止的。她聪明、勇敢、喜欢冒险，常和她最好的朋友小比目鱼胖胖还有音乐大臣赛巴斯丁一起出去探险

个人很喜欢美人鱼这个动画角色，也许每个女人潜意识里都会有些浪漫情结吧(老公经常强调我不浪漫，太现实，喜欢斤斤计较，抓住别人的小辫子不放，虽然我一直没找到机会和辩词来进行反驳，但我心里是从来都没承认过我有这么多的缺点的。)，虽然小孩都上幼儿园了，但还是喜欢看这个动画片。

"Harry Potter and theHalf-Blood Prince" — The sixth movie in J.K. Rowlings fantasy series about the young wizard is the franchises best so far, blending rich drama and easy camaraderie among the actors with the visual spectacle that until now has been the real star.

The hocus-pocus of it all nearly takes a back seat to the story and characters this time, and the film is the better for that, brimming with authentic people and honest interaction — hormonal teens bonding with great humor, heartache that will resonate with anyone who remembers the pangs of first love. The movie escalates the peril for Harry (Daniel Radcliffe) and his best pals, Hermione Granger (Emma Watson) and Ron Weasley (Rupert Grint), while giving the threesome that first collaborated as prepubescent kids their best platform yet to show their maturing acting chops.

Director David Yates, who made the fifth film and is doing the final two, stays true to the Rowling recipe yet infuses it with a freshness and energy that make it seem like a new start, not the stale old chapter six it could have been. Harrys main challenge this time involves an assignment from headmaster Dumbledore (Michael Gambon) to retrieve a critical memory that a new teacher (Jim Broadbent) possesses about the evil Lord Voldemort.

Along with the splendid visuals, the movie offers stirring support from Alan Rickman, Helena Bonham Carter, Maggie Smith, Robbie Coltrane and other co-stars. PG for scary images, some violence, language and mild sensuality. 153 minutes. Three and a half stars out of four.

Film Review of Pride and Prejudice

Pride and Prejudice is a famous classic written by Jane Austen. I was attracted by the characters and plots of the film adapted from the novel.

Elizabeth is the heroine of the story. When she meets Darcy, a handsome, rich but arrogant man, on the party for the first time, she is dissatisfied with the proud manner of Darcy. Darcy looks down on those who are in a lower social class,

including Elizabeth. However, after getting to know the courage, independence and confidence of Elizabeth, he almost falls in love with her. But Elizabeth believes the lies of Wickham which causes her great prejudice to Darcy. She rejects Darcy’s propose marriage to protect her self-respect. Finally, Darcy goes away because he couldn’t tolerate Elizabeth’s sisters’ vulgar manners. He writes a long letter to explain his thoughts and love to Elizabeth. After reading it, Elizabeth feels guilty about

misjudging Darcy and regrets turning him down. As time goes away, Darcy gradually improves his pride and keeps helping Elizabeth’s family out from troubles. At last, Elizabeth removes the prejudice to Darcy and accepts his propose marriage.

From the film I learn that we can’t judge a man immediately by the first impression. If we are controlled by our subjective senses, it will easy cause prejudice and

misunderstanding and probably influent the developments of many events. To avoid this situation, we need more communication to understand others deeply by ourselves.
