Andy’s expertise on financial matters became very important in prison and with the guards.  He was then assigned to the library where he takes care of the prison’s financial issues.  He also requested that the library needs some improvement.  Andy received donations for the library after Brooks (a fellow inmate) hanged himself.  Norton on the other hand exploited the prison labor for public works and he had Andy launder the money for him.

On his stay in prison he made another friend whose name is Tommy Williams who later on revealed that there was another inmate on another prison who already claimed the responsibility of murdering Andy’s wife but the warden did not listen to this.  He does not want to let go of Andy.  Because of this, Andy escaped the prison and he sent evidences to local newspaper about the corruption and murders inside Shawshank prison.  He also took the money that he laundered for Norton and lived Zihuatanejo in Mexico.  Red later on joined him after receiving parole.

The story of Shawshank Redemption does happen in real life.  Corruption, murders, drugs and a lot of things still happens inside the prison.  This movie depicts the real life in prison.  The story is dramatic with a lot of lessons to learn.  The only thing that is not a good example in this story is escaping prison.  However, the story also teaches us that even in the lowest point in our lives; we still need to have hopes.  If we persevere and think smart, we will surely have a happy ending.
