The Path Down the Green Mile is Also the Path Towards Miracles

Rating: 10/10 (17 June 2003)

The Green Mile is one of the greatest prison-dramas there are, written by one of the greatest writers; Stephen King. Reading the novel is one thing, but watching the motion picture is somewhat different. I, personally, have not ever read the novel and never will because of the motion picture. But I'm positive that reading the novel would've given me the same emotional effect that the motion picture (directed by Frank Darabont) has given me. The characters come alive along with the drama, the horror, and the action. It can help non-believers open their eyes and help believers open their eyes even more. It does that effect to me every time I watch The Green Mile and get in touch with the tone, the mood, and the theme that this classic film delivers. An Oscar-worthy classic indeed. Once you can feel the emotional appeals of this movie, then there's no way you can ever turn away from it.
