I helped it didn't I? (John Coffey)

Rating: 10/10 (4 March 2009)

Yes John Coffey You did! One of my favorite movies of all time. On my movie list it tops #1. Being a fan of the movie I have also read the book. Also a great book by Stephen King. Along with being one of my favorite movies the acting was utterly brilliant. Percy is one h-e-l-l of a bad person. When Percy squished Mr. Jingles, I wanted to squish him. A lot of people I talk to say they do not like long movies (by the way the movie is 188-189 Min about 3hrs. and 8-9min). I appreciate them so much. why spend so much to see such a short film. Anyway the movie is also one of the saddest movies I have ever seen. The saddest death, of course, is when John Coffey was put to death. A simple-minded African American wrongfully accused put to death. Another part of the movie that was sad was when Edward Delacroix was killed by Percy Whitmore. The Movie is a great adaption from the novel. Yes the movie is very sad, and I am mad enough to admit it I cried when Edward Delacroix and John Coffey died,(Only a little......). I really recommend this movie to be watched I loved it so much. Also If you like this movie see the other adaption of Stephen King's novelette Rita Hayworth and the Shawshank Redemption or just The Shawshank Redemption.(IMDb's #1 movie).
