The Green Mile is a movie based on a novel written by the master of horror, Stephen King. Mr. King didn't intend for the book to come out the way it did, he knew only that he wanted a novel set in a prison, and the rest is history. We are glad that Stephen King did it the way he did, otherwise this brilliant movie wouldn't have been made. The movie is about a man named Paul Edgecomb (played by Tom Hanks) who is working as a prison guard on death row. His life is getting worse due to seeing many people having their lives ended on an electric chair. Everything changes when one day John Coffey (played by Mark Clarke Duncan) enters the prison. He is a huge man who had been accused of murdering two children. As brutal as he seems to look, he is a big softy with a gentle, caring heart. This movie is about how John Coffey changes lives around the people who live around him and how the other people react to him. It is a magnificent story of human nature, forgiveness and love. This movie is a piece of art, a pure masterwork, and everyone who appreciates a good movie should definitely check it out. None movie comes close to the brilliance of The Green Mile, you will feel joy, sadness, happiness and much more while watching it, so give it a go, you are going to love it!
