In all my years at Shawshank, there have been less than ten men whom I believed when they told me they were innocent. Andy Dufre

sne was one of them, although I only became convinced of his innocence over a period of years. If I had been on the jury that heard his case in Portland Superior Court over six stormy weeks in 1947-48, I would have voted to convinct, too.

Answer: C. Characterization occurs through the potentially biased point of view of one character.

Explanation: being biased is showing an unreasonable like or dislike for a person based on personal opinions. In the given excerpt from "Rita Hayworth and Shawshank Redemption" by Stephen King we can see a narrator telling,in first person, his opinion about the case of Andy Dufresne. The narrator explains that he would have vote to convict when the case was in Portland Superior Court, but that years later he was convinced that Andy was innocent, this shows us that his point of view is biased (based in his opinions).
