Miracles can happen in the most unexpected places.

Rating: 10/10 (23 July 2007)

I read The book in serial form when it came out and quickly re read it when it was released as a novel.It was Stephen King's finest work to date I thought and I believed he'd have topped it by now.However King to my knowledge has not and the movie version of the Green Mile shows it's author's love as well as Frank Darabont's love for the time period and in helping re create king's Characters and in helping Redefine them Darabont makes a true masterpiece out of the Green Mile you can't but help but watch and feel what the main characters feel.Tom Hanks shows us once again what a great actor he is.In my mind Hanks is this generations James Stewart he can be very good and he can at times underplay a scene just to let the others shine. But as good as Tom Hanks is the kudos for this movie must rightfully go to Michael Clarke Duncan his performance as John Coffey is wonderfully played and Duncan MAKES Coffy's innocence shine thru this man has all the making's to become one of the 21st century's greatest Actors if he is only given a chance and another role like this one to showcase his talent. The Green Mile is touching,warm,and above all else a very realistic portrayal of the very real demons men face everyday. Even in a place like Cold Mountain prison and on Death Row where men await that last walk down the Green Mile.
