SPC on “The Shawshank Redemption”
SPC students enjoyed an evening of movie appreciation on February 21, 2017, as part of their floor activities, organized by SPC’s second floor committee. “The Shawshank Redemption”, which lasted for two and a half hours attracted a total of 56 SPCers. Professor Andy Fan, from the Faculty of Education, and an SPC college affiliate, facilitated a post-show time discussion.
“The Shawshank Redemption” is about a banker Andy who was framed and put in the Shawshank prison. Eventually, he used a rock hammer attempting to break away from prison and he did. During the discussion, Prof. Fan and SPCers shared their reflections. One of the students pointed out the key to freedom being the sense of hope, which gained warm applause from other participants. Prof. Fan quoted from the movie as a summary, “Hope is a good thing, maybe the best of things, and no good thing ever dies”.
