Hi, I’m Isaac Raphael D.L. Perez a senior highschool student in Notre Dame of Greater Manila currently taking on the strand STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics). The course that I will take in college is Information Technology. I like watching movies. One of my favourites is the Shawshank Redemption. It’s about a prisoner escaping the prison without being caught. Instead of watching movies, I also like playing online games like DotA2, Counter Strike and many more.

This blog all about the movie The Shawshank Redemption. The film is based on Stephen King’s novella Rita Hayworth and Shawshank Redemption, which was published in his 1982 short story collection, Different Seasons. Two other short stories in the collection were made into films: 1986’s Stand By Me and 1998’s Apt Pupil. King’s novella shares several plot points with a nine-page short story written by Leo Tolstoy called “God Sees the Truth, But Waits.” Both are about men sent to prison for murders they didn’t commit.
