The best Stephen King adaptation ever...

Rating: Null/10 (18 August 2000)

Whilst not a hardcore King fan I have read a few of his books and enjoyed them immensely and although not all of the movies and mini-series were that good, King's work on celluloid has provided some of the mediums finest moments (The Shining, The Stand, Misery and Christine to name but a few).
Having never read The Green Mile I didn't know what to expect from this movie and I must admit that the premise sounded fascinating. The Green Mile is an exceptionally acted and scripted peice With Hanks and Duncan giving superb performances. The characters (as usual for King) are well realised and scenes are often touching and shocking alike.
This is one of those films you wont forget in a hurry....
