wat can u say about the movie THE GREEN MILE????  

I love the movie The Green Mile. John Coffy. The actor that portrayed that part was excellent! The storyline is a great one too. I love how they did it but I still cried when they exectued him when he was innocent even though that is what he wanted so he could end his pain.

I have not watched the movie yet, but I read it, and by the end I was bawling my eyes out. I finished reading it in the car, so everyone saw me sitting there in my seat, biting my lip and trying not to cry. My attempts to stop myself only made it worse. I both love, and hate, how the storyline gets you so attached to the man on trial, and then rips him away from you. Then again, a lot of Stephen King's works are that way.

I thought this was a very good film. The characters were great and they really captured all the emotions.
Saying that though, I thought the book was better.

This is actually a brilliant film and I have watched it a few times. I recently discovered that it is also a book and so I am hoping to get around to read it one day!

I loved that movie, definately one of my favorites, and the book was even better. I think I took a different view from it than you though. To me it wasnt about the head guard, but about the inmate with the magical gift. This man was black and quite ugly. He knew he did not do those awful things to that girl, and knew the white crazy man did. Matter of fact the guard knew it as well. That man took his place in the electric chair and was executed for a crime he did not commit. Why because he was black and he was ugly, and he knew in that day and age, a black man would not ever get a fair shake, and he went to his grave knowing that. It is a very sad and moving story, and definately something everyone should see.
